Leslie Wexner was once known as the Merlin of the Mall for his seemingly magical ability to create ubiquitous retail brands: the Limited, Express, Bath and Body Works, Abercrombie & Fitch.
Perhaps his greatest success was Victoria's Secret, the fledgling lingerie company he transformed into a billion-dollar behemoth that dominated the intimate apparel market for decades. But, as detailed in the new docuseries "Victoria's Secret: Angels and Demons," the company imploded spectacularly following a series of publicity disasters, internal scandals and revelations about Wexner's ties to notorious predator Jeffrey Epstein in 2018 and 2019.
"It was one of the most dramatic collapses of a fashion empire in recent memory," says director Matt Tyrnauer, whose previous films include "Valentino: The Last Emperor" and "Where's My Roy Cohn?"
