Barbara Palvin’s gorgeous “Lingerie” body for Victoria's Secret Lingerie 2012

They are the little pink bags that women are desperate to get their hands on during their trips Stateside.

And now British women can get their hands on them as the underwear giant, famous for its stunning models, lands in the UK.

Contrary to previous speculative reports that neither of the two Victoria's Secret London stores would be opening in time for the Olympics as planned, it has now been confirmed that the Westfield Stratford store will open on 24 July.

The flagship store on New Bond Street store will open shortly afterwards, but as yet no exact date has been confirmed.

Much to the disappointment of the British men, a spokesperson for the brand has confirmed that there will be no 'Angels' - such as Miranda Kerr,  Candice Swanepoel and Alessandra Ambrosio, who act as the brand's genetically blessed spokesmodels and turn women green with envy every year on the catwalk - present at the Westfield Stratford store opening.

Although there are no rumours surfacing about details of the flagship opening, it is expected to be a much bigger affair with some of the brand's catwalk beauties present.

Originally, the New Bond Street store was expected to open on July 25 with great, with the Stratford store opening the following day.

There has been no reason given for the delay.

The lingerie giant is just one of many major fashion brands hoping to cash in on London's inflated population during the Olympic Games.

Karl Lagerfeld will launch an area dedicated to his eponymous brand in Selfridges on July 24, Chanel are preparing to launch a pop-up beauty and fragrance store in Covent Garden, and New York department store Opening Ceremony will also launch a pop-up boutique housing their various Olympic collaborations with the likes of Topshop and Adidas later this week.
