Victoria's Secret bikini's in Jordan

Sorry to burst your bubble, but its about Jordanians girls in Victoria's Secret Bikinis.

Its actually a very sad story.

D.K. Garments is a subcontract factory with 150 foreign guest workers (135 from Bangladesh and 15 from Sri Lanka), which has been producing Victoria's Secret garments for the last year......

...The Victoria's Secret workers toil 14 to 15 hours a day, from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 or 10:00 p.m., seven days a week, receiving on average one day off every three or four months....

....Workers who fall behind on their production goals, or who make even a minor error, can be slapped and beaten.


Bloggers: if you are in Jordan, do something about this. Contact the named company, involve the press, do something to help out these people.

This is not Jordan we all know and love.

  • Thanks for sharing this, it's disgraceful. As a Jordanian American, I'm very ashamed, but not surprised that Jordan and the US would sacrifice human rights for $$$.
