Edward G. Razek (born April 24, 1948) is an American business executive best known for his long tenure as Chief Marketing Officer and creative director at L Brands, the parent company of Victoria's Secret, and as a close confidant of founder Leslie Wexner. Joining the company in 1983, Razek played a pivotal role in transforming Victoria's Secret into a global brand, most notably by creating the iconic Victoria's Secret Angels and producing the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which became a cultural phenomenon from 1995 until its hiatus in 2019. Under his leadership, the fashion show drew millions of viewers and solidified the brand's image of glamour and fantasy, but it also faced growing criticism for perpetuating unrealistic beauty standards and objectification of women. Razek's career at L Brands spanned over three decades, during which he rose to become a key advisor to Wexner. However, his tenure ended amid significant controversy. In 2018, Razek resigned following multiple allegations of sexual misconduct and fostering a workplace culture rife with misogyny and harassment at Victoria's Secret, accusations which Wexner allegedly ignored. Reports from The New York Times detailed accusations from former employees and models, including claims of inappropriate comments and advances. Razek denied the allegations, but the scandals contributed to broader scrutiny of L Brands' corporate practices, including ties to Jeffrey Epstein through Wexner. Post-resignation, Razek has maintained a low public profile, with limited information on his current activities. Throughout his career, Razek was instrumental in marketing strategies that blended entertainment and commerce, but his legacy is complicated by the ethical concerns surrounding the brand's portrayal of women. Investigations and lawsuits, such as those filed by former executives alleging discrimination, highlighted systemic issues at the company during his era. Despite the controversies, Razek's innovations in fashion marketing remain influential in the industry.
