What does Victoria’s Secret have in common with Tommy Lee? Contact with either may cause redness, itching, and blisters, at least according to an Ohio resident named Roberta Ritter who is suing the company. The Victoria’s Secret lawsuit stems from an apparent allergic reaction from use of the Angels Secret Embrace and Very Sexy Extreme Me Push-Up bras.
A lawsuit filed against Victoria's Secret claims the brand's popular bras are responsible for injuring customers, causing rashes, hives and even permanent scarring, ABC News reported Tuesday.
Ohio resident Roberta Ritter filed a lawsuit against the company May 14, claiming the Angels Secret Embrace and Very Sexy Extreme Me Push-Up bras she purchased made her sick.
"I had the welts ... very red, hot to the touch, extremely inflamed, blistery. It itched profusely," Ritter, 37, told ABC News. "I couldn't sleep, waking up itching."
Ritter's lawyers said they purchased the same bra types named in the suit and had them tested at a lab. The tests revealed that the bras contained formaldehyde, a chemical used in embalming. The lawyers believe Ritter may be allergic to formaldehyde.
Victoria’s Secret, I know that boobs are important to you. But are they so important that you need to embalm them? In all seriousness though, did it ever occur to Ritter that she might just have been wearing a push-up bra that was too small for her and too stuffed with non-hypoallergenic padding?
