Sara Brock, product manager at Victoria’s Secret, manager Donna Macko and other members of the sales team gathered at 9:45 a.m. May 30 to cut a ribbon to celebrate the grand re-opening of the new Victoria’s Secret store at Kitsap Mall.

The staff also celebrated the opening of a new PINK store.

More than a dozen people gathered at the store’s entrance for the opening. A few snapped photos with their cell phones as the ribbon was cut.

“Everything is new,” Brock said of the store, which had a striking pink, black, white and chrome color scheme.

“I’m especially excited about PINK. Kitsap County has been waiting for this.”

The store’s former location, right next door, is boarded up. Brock thought a new H&M store going in next door might be expanding into the old Victoria’s Secret space.
