Victoria’s Secret Removes Sexy Little Racist Costume

If only we could get this kind of outrage over their photoshopping!
Victoria’s Secret has yanked their new Go East lingerie collection after many accused the panty giant of being racist.
The Sexy Little Geisha ensemble portrays a beaming Candice Swanepoel dressed in a mesh teddy with “flirty cutouts” posing with a fan and tasseled chopsticks.
The lingerie is like any other, but since people often confuse Geishas for prostitutes, it has come off as offensive.
VS has yet to release a statement, but we’re glad to see they did the right thing and quickly removed it.
Thoughts???
