VS is good if you're a 36DD, perhaps a 38DD, or smaller. If you're above that, ESPECIALLY if you're fat, they are rude and dismissive of you in their stores.

Yeah, VS has the attitude that if you're bigger than a D, just go up band sizes until your boobs fit the cups. Which eliminates all support. As someone much bigger than that, I did find a Fantasie strapless that actually supports pretty well. It had better, for $85. It separates a bit much, but most strapless dresses like to push things inward, so it balanced out well.
