Description of Business and Sum

Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Description of Business L Brands, Inc. (“the Company”) operates in the highly competitive specialty retail business. The Company is a specialty retailer of women’s intimate and other apparel, personal care, beauty and home fragrance products. The Company sells its merchandise through company-owned specialty retail stores in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Ireland and Greater China, and through its websites and other channels. The Company's other international operations are primarily through franchise, license and wholesale partners. The Company currently operates the following retail brands: • Victoria’s Secret • PINK • Bath & Body Works Fiscal Year The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. As used herein, “ 2018 ” and " 2016 " refer to the 52-week periods ended February 2, 2019 and January 28, 2017 , respectively. “ 2017 ” refers to the 53-week period ended February 3, 2018 . Basis of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments in unconsolidated entities where it exercises significant influence, but does not have control, using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognizes its share of the investee's net income or loss. Losses are only recognized to the extent the Company has positive carrying value related to the investee. Carrying values are only reduced below zero if the Company has an obligation to provide funding to the investee. The Company’s share of net income or loss of unconsolidated entities from which the Company purchases merchandise or merchandise components is included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s share of net income or loss of all other unconsolidated entities is included in Other Income (Loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s equity method investments are required to be reviewed for impairment when it is determined there may be an other than temporary loss in value. La Senza On January 6, 2019, the Company completed the sale of the La Senza business. For additional information, see Note 6 , "Restructuring Activities." Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and Cash Equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with financial institutions and highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company’s outstanding checks, which totaled $13 million as of February 2, 2019 and $14 million as of February 3, 2018 , are included in Accounts Payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and derivative contracts with various major financial institutions. The Company monitors the relative credit standing of financial institutions with whom the Company transacts and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one entity. Typically, the Company’s investment portfolio is primarily comprised of U.S. government obligations, U.S. Treasury and AAA-rated money market funds, commercial paper and bank deposits. The Company also periodically reviews the relative credit standing of franchise, license and wholesale partners and other entities to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company records an allowance for uncollectable accounts when it becomes probable that the counterparty will be unable to pay. Marketable Equity Securities These investments are recorded at fair value in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Beginning in 2018, the Company recognizes unrealized holding gains and losses in Other Income (Loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Prior to 2018, unrealized holding gains and losses were recorded, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Inventories Inventories are principally valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, on a weighted-average cost basis. The Company records valuation adjustments to its inventories if the cost of inventory on hand exceeds the amount it expects to realize from the ultimate sale or disposal of the inventory. These estimates are based on management’s judgment regarding future demand and market conditions and analysis of historical experience. The Company also records inventory loss adjustments for estimated physical inventory losses that have occurred since the date of the last physical inventory. These estimates are based on management’s analysis of historical results and operating trends. Advertising Costs Advertising and marketing costs are expensed at the time the promotion first appears in media, in the store or when the advertising is mailed. Advertising and marketing costs totaled $476 million for 2018 , $383 million for 2017 and $325 million for 2016 . Property and Equipment The Company’s property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using the following depreciable life ranges: Category of Property and Equipment Depreciable Life Range Software, including software developed for internal use 3 - 7 years Store related assets 3 - 10 years Leasehold improvements Shorter of lease term or 10 years Non-store related building and site improvements 10 - 15 years Other property and equipment 20 years Buildings 30 years When a decision has been made to dispose of property and equipment prior to the end of the previously estimated useful life, depreciation estimates are revised to reflect the use of the asset over the shortened estimated useful life. The Company’s cost of assets sold or retired and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts with any resulting gain or loss included in net income. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major renewals and betterments that extend useful lives are capitalized. Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which they are largely independent of other assets or asset groups. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows related to the asset or asset group are less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes a loss equal to the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group. Goodwill and Intangible Assets The Company has certain intangible assets resulting from business combinations and acquisitions that are recorded at cost. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their respective estimated useful lives. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment each year in the fourth quarter and may be reviewed more frequently if certain events occur or circumstances change. The Company has the option to either first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that each reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value (including goodwill), or to proceed directly to the quantitative assessment which requires a comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit's fair value to its carrying value (including goodwill). If the Company determines that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company then estimates the fair value of all assets and liabilities of that reporting unit, including the implied fair value of goodwill, through either estimated discounted future cash flows or market-based methodologies. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference. The Company's reporting units are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other . The Company's reporting units that have goodwill are Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works and Greater China. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment each year in the fourth quarter and may be reviewed more frequently if certain events occur or circumstances change. The Company has the option to either first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, or to proceed directly to the quantitative assessment which requires a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying value. To determine if the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company will estimate the fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset, and compare that value with its carrying amount. If the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds the fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference. If future economic conditions are different than those projected by management, future impairment charges may be required. Leases and Leasehold Improvements The Company has leases that contain predetermined fixed escalations of minimum rentals and/or rent abatements subsequent to taking possession of the leased property. The Company recognizes the related rent expense on a straight-line basis commencing upon the store possession date. The Company records the difference between the recognized rental expense and amounts payable under the leases as deferred lease credits. The Company’s liability for predetermined fixed escalations of minimum rentals and/or rent abatements totaled $220 million as of February 2, 2019 and $210 million as of February 3, 2018 . These liabilities are included in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company receives construction allowances from landlords related to its retail stores. These allowances are generally comprised of cash amounts received by the Company from its landlords as part of the negotiated lease terms. The Company records a receivable and a landlord allowance at the lease commencement date (date of initial possession of the store). The landlord allowance is amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rent expense over the term of the lease (including the pre-opening build-out period), and the receivable is reduced as amounts are received from the landlord. The Company’s unamortized portion of landlord allowances, which totaled $278 million as of February 2, 2019 and $293 million as of February 3, 2018 , is included in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also has leasehold improvements which are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the period from the date the assets are placed in service to the end of the initial lease term. Leasehold improvements made after the inception of the initial lease term are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, including renewal periods, if reasonably assured. For information regarding the future impacts as a result of the Company's adoption of ASC 842, Leases, in the first quarter of 2019, refer to Note 2, "New Accounting Pronouncements." Foreign Currency Translation The functional currency of the Company’s foreign operations is generally the applicable local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date, while revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The Company’s resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. Accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments are reclassified to net income when realized upon sale or upon complete or substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading purposes. All derivative instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. For derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity and reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged item affects earnings. Gains and losses that are reclassified into earnings are recognized in the same line item on the Consolidated Statement of Income as the underlying hedged item. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge ineffectiveness, if any, are recognized in current earnings. For derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument has an equal and offsetting impact to the carrying value of the liability on the balance sheet. For derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is recognized in current earnings in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Fair Value The authoritative guidance included in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. This authoritative guidance further establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: • Level 1—Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices of similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. • Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments, property and equipment and goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820 . Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, taxes currently payable or refundable are accrued, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for realizable operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in income tax rates is recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. In determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, the Company considers permanent differences between book and tax income and statutory income tax rates. The Company’s effective income tax rate is affected by items including changes in tax law, the tax jurisdiction of new stores or business ventures and the level of earnings. The Company follows a two-step approach to recognize and measure uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and for which actual outcomes may differ from forecasted outcomes. The Company’s income tax returns, like those of most companies, are periodically audited by domestic and foreign tax authorities. These audits include questions regarding the Company’s tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. At any one time, multiple tax years are subject to audit by the various tax authorities. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter for which the Company has established an accrual is audited and fully resolved or clarified. The Company adjusts its tax contingencies accrual and income tax provision in the period in which matters are effectively settled with tax authorities at amounts different from its established accrual, when the statute of limitations expires for the relevant taxing authority to examine the tax position or when more information becomes available. The Company includes its tax contingencies accrual, including accrued penalties and interest, in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets unless the liability is expected to be paid within one year. Changes to the tax contingencies accrual, including accrued penalties and interest, are included in Provision for Income Taxes on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Self-Insurance The Company is self-insured for medical, workers’ compensation, property, general liability and automobile liability up to certain stop-loss limits. Such costs are accrued based on known claims and an estimate of incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims. IBNR claims are estimated using historical claim information and actuarial estimates. Noncontrolling Interest Noncontrolling interest represents the portion of equity interests of consolidated affiliates not owned by the Company. Share-based Compensation The Company recognizes all share-based payments to employees and directors as compensation cost over the service period based on their estimated fair value on the date of grant. The Company estimates award forfeitures at the time awards are granted and adjusts, if necessary, in subsequent periods based on historical experience and expected future forfeitures. Compensation cost is recognized over the service period for the fair value of awards that actually vest. Compensation expense for awards without a performance condition is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, using a single award approach (each award is valued as one grant, irrespective of the number of vesting tranches). Compensation expense for awards with a performance condition is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, using a multiple award approach (each vesting tranche is valued as one grant). Revenue Recognition In the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , using the modified retrospective approach. Results for 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period consolidated financial statements have not been adjusted and continue to be presented under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company recognizes revenue based on the amount it expects to receive when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer. The Company recognizes sales upon customer receipt of merchandise, which for direct channel revenues reflect an estimate of shipments that have not yet been received by the customer based on shipping terms and historical delivery times. The Company’s shipping and handling revenues are included in Net Sales with the related costs included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company also provides a reserve for projected merchandise returns based on historical experience. Net Sales exclude sales and other similar taxes collected from customers. The Company offers certain loyalty programs that allow customers to earn points based on purchasing activity. As customers accumulate points and reach point thresholds, they can use the points to purchase merchandise in stores or online. The Company allocates revenue to points earned on qualifying purchases and defers recognition until the points are redeemed. The amount of revenue deferred is based on the relative stand-alone selling price method, which includes an estimate for points not expected to be redeemed based on historical experience. The Company sells gift cards with no expiration dates to customers. The Company does not charge administrative fees on unused gift cards. The Company recognizes revenue from gift cards when they are redeemed by the customer. In addition, the Company recognizes revenue on unredeemed gift cards where the likelihood of the gift card being redeemed is remote and there is no legal obligation to remit the unredeemed gift cards to relevant jurisdictions (gift card breakage). Gift card breakage revenue is recognized in proportion, and over the same period, as actual gift card redemptions. The Company determines the gift card breakage rate based on historical redemption patterns. Gift card breakage is included in Net Sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Revenue earned in connection with Victoria’s Secret's private label credit card arrangement is recognized over the term of the license arrangement and is included in Net Sales in the 2018 Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company also recognizes revenues associated with franchise, license, wholesale and sourcing arrangements. Revenue recognized under franchise and license arrangements generally consists of royalties earned and recognized upon sale of merchandise by franchise and license partners to retail customers. Revenue is generally recognized under wholesale and sourcing arrangements at the time the title passes to the partner. Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy The Company’s costs of goods sold include merchandise costs, net of discounts and allowances, freight and inventory shrinkage. The Company’s buying and occupancy expenses primarily include payroll, benefit costs and operating expenses for its buying departments and distribution network, rent, common area maintenance, real estate taxes, utilities, maintenance, fulfillment expenses and depreciation for the Company’s stores, warehouse facilities and equipment. General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses The Company’s general, administrative and store operating expenses primarily include payroll and benefit costs for its store-selling and administrative departments (including corporate functions), marketing, advertising and other operating expenses not specifically categorized elsewhere in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and the Company revises its estimates and assumptions as new information becomes available. |

New Accounting Pronouncements Text Block [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block] | New Accounting Pronouncements Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which was further clarified and amended in 2015 and 2016. This guidance requires companies to recognize revenue in a manner that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which a company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also results in enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted the standard in the first quarter of 2018 under the modified retrospective approach. Under the standard, income from the Victoria's Secret private label credit card arrangement, which was historically presented as a reduction to General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses, is presented as revenue. Further, historical accounting related to loyalty points earned under the Victoria's Secret customer loyalty program changed as the Company now defers revenue associated with customer loyalty points until the points are redeemed using a relative stand-alone selling price method. The standard also changed accounting for sales returns which requires balance sheet presentation on a gross basis. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a cumulative catch-up adjustment resulting in a reduction to opening retained earnings, net of tax, of $28 million . The cumulative adjustment primarily related to the deferral of revenue related to outstanding points, net of estimated forfeitures, under the Victoria's Secret customer loyalty program. In addition, Net Sales and General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses both increased $187 million in the 2018 Consolidated Statement of Income. Further, gross presentation of the Company's sales return reserve resulted in a $5 million increase in Other Current Assets and Accrued Expenses and Other on the February 2, 2019 Consolidated Balance Sheet. Fair Value of Financial Instruments In January 2016, the FASB issued ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities , which addresses certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The standard requires the recognition of changes in the fair value of marketable equity securities in net income as compared to historical treatment in accumulated other comprehensive income on the balance sheet. The Company adopted the standard in the first quarter of 2018 and recorded an increase to opening retained earnings, net of tax, of $2 million . Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASC 842, Leases , which is effective beginning in fiscal 2019 and requires companies classified as lessees to account for most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to today’s accounting. The standard also will result in enhanced quantitative and qualitative disclosures, including significant judgments made by management, to provide greater insight into the extent of revenue and expense recognized and expected to be recognized from existing leases. In July 2018, the FASB approved an amendment to the standard that provides companies a transition option that would not require earlier periods to be restated upon adoption. The Company will adopt the standard in the first quarter of 2019 and apply the standard prospectively as of the adoption date. As allowed by the new standard, the Company elected the package of transition practical expedients but has elected to not apply the hindsight practical expedient to its leases at transition. Substantially all of the Company's leases, including our retail store locations, are subject to operating lease accounting under the new standard. The Company expects to recognize right-of-use assets of approximately $3.3 billion and related lease liabilities of approximately $3.7 billion in its Consolidated Balance Sheet upon adoption at the beginning of fiscal 2019. These balances will change as the lease portfolio changes due to execution of lease modifications or new leases. The right-of-use assets are based upon the lease liabilities adjusted for deferred rent liabilities and unamortized landlord construction allowances. The Company will continue to recognize rent expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Hedging Activities In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities , which is intended to better align risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships. The standard eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. It also eases certain documentation and assessment requirements. The Company will adopt the standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Goodwill In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill. The standard eliminates the second step from the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation to determine the implied fair value of goodwill. Under the new standard, the goodwill impairment charge will be the excess of the reporting unit's carrying value over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. This guidance will be effective beginning in fiscal 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. |

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] | |
Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | Restructuring Activities La Senza On January 6, 2019, in an effort to increase shareholder value and in order to focus on its larger core businesses, the Company divested its ownership interest in La Senza to an affiliate of Regent LP, a global private equity firm. Regent LP assumed La Senza’s operating assets and liabilities in exchange for potential future consideration upon the sale or other monetization of La Senza, as defined in the agreement. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company recognized a pre-tax loss on the divestiture of $99 million , primarily related to $45 million of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments reclassified into earnings that were previously recognized as a component of equity, as well as losses related to the transfer of the net working capital and long-lived store assets to the buyer. The loss is included in Loss on Divestiture of La Senza in the 2018 Consolidated Statement of Income. The after-tax loss on the divestiture was $55 million , which includes $44 million of tax benefits primarily associated with the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets. In conjunction with the transaction, the Company has guaranteed certain lease payments under the current terms of noncancelable leases. For additional information, see Note 18 , "Commitments and Contingencies." Additionally, the Company will continue to provide support to La Senza in various operational areas including logistics, technology and merchandise sourcing for periods of time ranging from one month to eighteen months. Henri Bendel In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company closed all Henri Bendel stores and ceased selling merchandise online. The Company announced the planned closure of Henri Bendel in the third quarter of 2018. As a result, the Company recognized a pre-tax charge, primarily cash, consisting of lease termination costs, severance and other costs of $20 million in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company recognized an additional pre-tax charge of $3 million , primarily related to contract termination and employee retention costs. Restructuring charges of $14 million and $9 million are included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy and General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses, respectively, in the 2018 Consolidated Statement of Income. Through the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company made cash payments of $16 million . The remaining balance of $7 million is included in Accrued Expenses and Other on the February 2, 2019 Consolidated Balance Sheet. Victoria's Secret During the first quarter of 2016, the Company made strategic changes within the Victoria’s Secret segment designed to focus the brand on its core merchandise categories, streamline operations and emphasize brand building and loyalty-enhancing marketing and advertising rather than using traditional catalogues and offers. As a result of these actions, the Company recorded charges related to cancellations of fabric commitments for non-go forward merchandise and a reserve against paper that was previously intended for future catalogues. These costs, totaling $11 million , including non-cash charges of $10 million , are included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy on the 2016 Consolidated Statement of Income. These actions also resulted in the elimination of approximately 200 positions primarily in the Company's Ohio and New York home offices. Severance and related costs associated with these eliminations, totaling $24 million , are included in General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses on the 2016 Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company recognized a total pre-tax charge of $35 million for these items in the first quarter of 2016. |

During 2018 , the Company concluded that the negative operating results for certain of its Victoria's Secret stores were an indicator of potential impairment of the related long-lived store assets. The Company determined that the estimated undiscounted future cash flows were less than the carrying values and, as a result, recognized a loss equal to the difference between the carrying values and the estimated fair values, determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows. As a result, the Company recognized impairment charges of $81 million and $20 million in the third and fourth quarter of 2018, respectively. These charges are included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying & Occupancy in the 2018 Consolidated Statement of Income. Impairment charges of $70 million , related to stores in the U.S. and Canada, were recorded within the Victoria's Secret segment. Impairment charges of $31 million , related to stores in the U.K., were recorded within the Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works International segment. In 2016 , the Company completed a sale and leaseback transaction under a noncancelable operating lease of a certain asset. The carrying value of the asset sold under this arrangement was $51 million . Proceeds of $51 million are included in Proceeds from Sale of Assets within the Investing Activities section of the 2016 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Current income tax expense represents the amounts expected to be reported on the Company’s income tax returns, and deferred tax expense or benefit represents the change in net deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. Valuation allowances are recorded as appropriate to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount considered likely to be realized. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "TCJA") was enacted into law. The legislation significantly changes U.S. tax law by, among other things, lowering corporate income tax rates and imposing a repatriation tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The TCJA reduces the U.S. corporate income tax rate from a maximum of 35% to a flat 21% rate, effective January 1, 2018. On December 22, 2017, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to address the application of GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the TCJA. The ultimate impact may differ from provisional amounts, due to changes in interpretations and assumptions the Company has made regarding application of the TCJA as well as additional regulatory guidance that may be issued. The Company recognized $159 million tax benefit related to revaluing the ending net deferred tax liabilities and recognized $67 million of tax expense related to the deemed mandatory repatriation in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended February 3, 2018. As of February 2, 2019, the Company has completed its determination of the accounting implications of the TCJA. The following table provides the components of the Company’s provision for income taxes for fiscal 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : 2018 2017 2016 (in millions) Current: U.S. Federal $ 212 $ 366 $ 345 U.S. State 37 49 62 Non-U.S. 16 22 21 Total 265 437 428 Deferred: U.S. Federal (4 ) (114 ) 99 U.S. State 2 6 8 Non-U.S. (50 ) — 3 Total (52 ) (108 ) 110 Provision for Income Taxes $ 213 $ 329 $ 538 The non-U.S. component of pre-tax income, arising principally from overseas operations, was a loss of $14 million , income of $99 million and income of $134 million for 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

For those states where the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the state net operating loss carryforwards will not be realized, a valuation allowance has been provided. As of February 2, 2019 , the Company had available for non-U.S. tax purposes net operating loss carryforwards which have an indefinite life and net operating loss carryforwards which expire, if unused, in the years 2028 through 2038 . For certain jurisdictions where the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the net operating loss carryforwards will not be realized, a valuation allowance has been provided on those net operating loss carryforwards as well as other net deferred tax assets. Income tax payments were $324 million for 2018 , $494 million for 2017 and $469 million for 2016 . Uncertain Tax Positions The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits for U.S. federal, state & non-U.S. tax jurisdictions for 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , without interest and penalties: 2018 2017 2016 (in millions) Gross Unrecognized Tax Benefits, as of the Beginning of the Fiscal Year $ 67 $ 90 $ 248 Increases to Unrecognized Tax Benefits for Prior Years 35 3 3 Decreases to Unrecognized Tax Benefits for Prior Years (25 ) (22 ) (73 ) Increases to Unrecognized Tax Benefits as a Result of Current Year Activity 44 7 18 Decreases to Unrecognized Tax Benefits Relating to Settlements with Taxing Authorities — (2 ) (98 ) Decreases to Unrecognized Tax Benefits as a Result of a Lapse of the Applicable Statute of Limitations (7 ) (9 ) (8 ) Gross Unrecognized Tax Benefits, as of the End of the Fiscal Year $ 114 $ 67 $ 90 Of the $114 million , $67 million and $90 million of total unrecognized tax benefits at February 2, 2019 , February 3, 2018 , and January 28, 2017 , respectively, approximately $104 million , $46 million and $62 million , respectively, represent the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. These amounts are net of the offsetting tax effects from other tax jurisdictions. Of the total unrecognized tax benefits, it is reasonably possible that $84 million could change in the next 12 months due to audit settlements, expiration of statute of limitations or other resolution of uncertainties. Due to the uncertain and complex application of tax regulations, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of audits may result in amounts which could be different from this estimate. In such case, the Company will record additional tax expense or tax benefit in the period in which such matters are effectively settled. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of income tax expense. The Company recognized an income tax benefit from interest and penalties of $5 million , $2 million and $3 million in 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The Company has accrued $12 million and $17 million for the payment of interest and penalties as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018 , respectively. Accrued interest and penalties are included within Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns as well as income tax returns in various states and in non-U.S. jurisdictions. The Company is a participant in the Compliance Assurance Process ("CAP"), which is a program made available by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") to certain qualifying large taxpayers, under which participants work collaboratively with the IRS to identify and resolve potential tax issues through open, cooperative and transparent interaction prior to the annual filing of their federal income tax return. The IRS is currently examining the Company's 2017 consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. The Company is also subject to various U.S. state and local income tax examinations for the years 2012 to 2017 . Finally, the Company is subject to multiple non-U.S. tax jurisdiction examinations for the years 2007 to 2017 . In some situations, the Company determines that it does not have a filing requirement in a particular tax jurisdiction. Where no return has been filed, no statute of limitations applies. Accordingly, if a tax jurisdiction reaches a conclusion that a filing requirement does exist, additional years may be reviewed by the tax authority. The Company believes it has appropriately accounted for uncertainties related to this issue. |

Secured Revolving Facility The Company and the Guarantors guarantee and pledge collateral to secure a revolving credit facility. The Secured Revolving Facility has aggregate availability of $1 billion and expires in May 2022. The Secured Revolving Facility allows the Company and certain of the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries to borrow and obtain letters of credit in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars, Euros, Hong Kong dollars or British pounds.

Summary of Derivative Instruments [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments Foreign Exchange Derivative Instruments The earnings of the Company's wholly owned foreign businesses are subject to exchange rate risk as substantially all their merchandise is sourced through U.S. dollar transactions. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to mitigate this foreign currency exposure for its Canadian and U.K. businesses. These forward contracts currently have a maximum term of 18 months. Amounts are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income upon sale of the hedged merchandise to the customer. These gains and losses are recognized in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company had a cross-currency swap related to an intercompany loan of approximately CAD $170 million that matured in January 2018 which was designated as a cash flow hedge of foreign currency exchange risk. This cross-currency swap mitigated the exposures to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar-Canadian dollar exchange rate related to the Company's Canadian operations. Changes in the U.S. dollar-Canadian dollar exchange rate and the related swap settlements resulted in reclassification of amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings to completely offset foreign currency transaction gains and losses recognized on the intercompany loan. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relative to recognized payable balances denominated in non-functional currencies. The fair value of these non-designated foreign currency forward contracts is not significant as of February 2, 2019 . The following table provides the U.S. dollar notional amount of outstanding foreign currency derivative financial instruments as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018 : February 2, February 3, (in millions) Notional Amount $ 147 $ 217 The following table provides a summary of the fair value and balance sheet classification of outstanding derivative financial instruments designated as foreign currency cash flow hedges as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018 : February 2, February 3, (in millions) Other Current Assets $ 2 $ — Accrued Expenses and Other — 8 Other Long-term Liabilities — 1 The following table provides a summary of the pre-tax financial statement effect of the gains and losses on derivative financial instruments designated as foreign currency cash flow hedges for 2018 and 2017 : 2018 2017 (in millions) Gain (Loss) Recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income $ 11 $ (21 ) (Gain) Loss Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income into Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy Expense (a) 2 (1 ) (Gain) Loss Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income into Other Income (Loss) (b) — 8 ________________ (a) Represents reclassification of amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings when the hedged merchandise is sold to the customer. No ineffectiveness was associated with these foreign currency cash flow hedges. (b) Represents reclassification of amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings to completely offset foreign currency transaction gains and losses recognized on the intercompany loan. The Company estimates that $3 million of net gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income as of February 2, 2019 related to foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges will be reclassified into earnings within the following 12 months. Actual amounts ultimately reclassified depend on the exchange rates in effect when derivative contracts that are currently outstanding mature. |

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Disclosures | Fair Value Measurements The following table provides a summary of assets and liabilities measured in the consolidated financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018 : Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in millions) As of February 2, 2019 Assets: Cash and Cash Equivalents $ 1,413 $ — $ — $ 1,413 Marketable Equity Securities 11 — — 11 Foreign Currency Cash Flow Hedges — 2 — 2 As of February 3, 2018 Assets: Cash and Cash Equivalents $ 1,515 $ — $ — $ 1,515 Marketable Equity Securities 17 — — 17 Liabilities: Foreign Currency Cash Flow Hedges — 9 — 9 The Company's Level 1 fair value measurements use unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company's marketable equity securities are classified as Level 1 fair value measurements as they are traded with sufficient frequency and volume to enable the Company to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities . The standard requires the recognition of changes in the fair value of the Company's marketable equity securities in net income as compared to historical treatment in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company adopted the standard in the first quarter of 2018. The Company recognized unrealized losses of $6 million in 2018 related to its marketable equity securities in Other Income (Loss) in the 2018 Consolidated Statement of Income. In 2017, the Company purchased $10 million of marketable equity securities which are classified as available-for-sale. The cash payment is included in Purchases of Marketable Equity Securities in the Investing Activities section of the 2017 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. In 2015, the Company purchased $10 million in marketable equity securities. In the first quarter of 2016, the Company sold a portion of this investment for $10 million and recognized a pre-tax gain of $4 million (after-tax gain of $3 million ). The gain is included in Other Income (Loss) in the 2016 Consolidated Statement of Income, and the cash proceeds are included in Proceeds from Sale of Marketable Equity Securities in the Investing Activities section of the 2016 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The Company’s Level 2 fair value measurements use market approach valuation techniques. The primary inputs to these techniques include benchmark interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, as applicable to the underlying instruments. The following table provides a summary of the principal value and estimated fair value of outstanding publicly traded debt as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018 : February 2, February 3, (in millions) Principal Value $ 5,722 $ 5,750 Fair Value (a) 5,340 5,943 ________________ (a) The estimated fair value of the Company’s publicly traded debt is based on reported transaction prices which are considered Level 2 inputs in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement . The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. Management believes that the carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current debt approximate fair value because of their short maturity. |

Commitments And Contingencies [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes, insurance, regulatory and other matters arising out of the normal course of business. Actions filed against the Company from time to time include commercial, tort, intellectual property, customer, employment, data privacy, securities and other claims, including purported class action lawsuits. Management believes that the ultimate liability arising from such claims and contingencies, if any, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. Guarantees In connection with the sale of La Senza, the Company has remaining guarantees of $76 million related to lease payments under the current terms of noncancelable leases expiring at various dates through 2028. These guarantees include minimum rent and additional payments covering taxes, common area costs and certain other expenses and relate to leases that commenced prior to the disposition of the business.

In connection with the disposition of a certain other business, the Company has remaining guarantees of $6 million related to lease payments under the current terms of noncancelable leases expiring at various dates through 2021 . These guarantees include minimum rent and additional payments covering taxes, common area costs and certain other expenses and relate to leases that commenced prior to the disposition of the business. In certain instances, the Company’s guarantee may remain in effect if the term of a lease is extended. The Company has not recorded a liability with respect to these guarantee obligations as of February 2, 2019 or February 3, 2018 as it concluded that payments under these guarantees were not probable. In connection with noncancelable operating leases of certain assets, the Company provided residual value guarantees to the lessor if the leased assets cannot be sold for an amount in excess of a specified minimum value at the conclusion of the lease term. The leases expire at various dates through 2021, and the total amount of the guarantees is $94 million .

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Retirement Benefits | Retirement Benefits The Company sponsors a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan and a non-qualified supplemental retirement plan for substantially all of its associates within the U.S. Participation in the tax-qualified plan is available to associates who meet certain age and service requirements. Participation in the non-qualified plan is available to associates who meet certain age, service, job level and compensation requirements. The qualified plan permits participating associates to elect contributions up to the maximum limits allowable under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company matches associate contributions according to a predetermined formula and contributes additional amounts based on a percentage of the associates’ eligible annual compensation and years of service. Associate contributions and Company matching contributions vest immediately. Additional Company contributions and the related investment earnings are subject to vesting based on years of service. Total expense recognized related to the qualified plan was $76 million for 2018 , $68 million for 2017 and $67 million for 2016 . The non-qualified plan is an unfunded plan which provides benefits beyond the Internal Revenue Code limits for qualified defined contribution plans. The plan permits participating associates to elect contributions up to a maximum percentage of eligible compensation. The Company matches associate contributions according to a predetermined formula and contributes additional amounts based on a percentage of the associates’ eligible compensation and years of service. The plan also permits participating associates to defer additional compensation up to a maximum amount which the Company does not match. Associates’ accounts are credited with interest using a fixed rate determined by the Company and reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, prior to the beginning of each year. Associate contributions and the related interest vest immediately. Company contributions, along with related interest, are subject to vesting based on years of service. Associates may elect in-service distributions for the unmatched additional deferred compensation component only. The remaining vested portion of associates’ accounts in the plan will be distributed upon termination of employment in either a lump sum or in annual installments over a specified period of up to 10 years. The following table provides the Company’s annual activity for this plan and year-end liability, included in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018 : February 2, February 3, (in millions) Balance at Beginning of Year $ 269 $ 258 Contributions: Associate 10 9 Company 11 9 Interest 13 11 Distributions (25 ) (18 ) Balance at End of Year $ 278 $ 269 Total expense recognized related to the non-qualified plan was $24 million for 2018 , $20 million for 2017 and $26 million for 2016 . |

Share-based Compensation [Abstract] | |
Share-based Compensation | Share-based Compensation Plan Summary In 2015, the Company's shareholders approved the 2015 Stock Option and Performance Incentive Plan ("2015 Plan"). The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance-based restricted stock, performance units and unrestricted shares. The Company grants stock options at a price equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Stock options have a maximum term of 10 years. Stock options generally vest ratably over three to five years. Restricted stock generally vests (the restrictions lapse) at the end of a three -year period or on a graded basis over a five -year period. Under the Company’s plans, 160 million options, restricted and unrestricted shares have been authorized to be granted to employees and directors. There were 9 million options and shares available for grant as of February 2, 2019 . From time to time the Company's Board of Directors will declare special dividends. In accordance with the anti-dilutive provisions of the stock plan, in these circumstances the Company adjusts both the exercise price and the number of share-based awards outstanding as of the record date of the special dividends. The aggregate fair value, the aggregate intrinsic value and the ratio of the exercise price to the market price are approximately equal immediately before and after the adjustments. Therefore, no compensation expense is recognized. Stock Options The following table provides the Company’s stock option activity for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019 : Number of Shares Weighted Average Option Price Per Share Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) (in years) (in thousands) Outstanding as of February 3, 2018 4,472 $ 57.03 Granted 1,438 39.06 Exercised (84 ) 14.52 Cancelled (534 ) 53.72 Outstanding as of February 2, 2019 5,292 $ 53.14 6.48 $ 3,384 Vested and Expected to Vest as of February 2, 2019 (a) 5,124 53.44 6.40 3,384 Options Exercisable as of February 2, 2019 2,759 55.11 4.76 3,384 ________________ (a) The number of options expected to vest includes an estimate of expected forfeitures. Intrinsic value for stock options is the difference between the current market value of the Company’s stock and the option strike price. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $2 million for 2018 , $44 million for 2017 and $30 million for 2016 . The total fair value at grant date of option awards vested was $9 million for 2018 and $10 million for 2017 and 2016 . The Company’s total unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested options was $13 million as of February 2, 2019 . This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years. The weighted-average estimated fair value of stock options granted was $6.76 per share for 2018 , $5.96 per share for 2017 and $11.72 per share for 2016 . Cash received from stock options exercised was $1 million for 2018 , $38 million for 2017 and $20 million for 2016 . Tax benefits realized from tax deductions associated with stock options exercised were less than $1 million for 2018 , $16 million for 2017 and $9 million for 2016 . The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for valuation of options granted to employees and directors. The Company’s determination of the fair value of options is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The following table contains the weighted-average assumptions used during 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : 2018 2017 2016 Expected Volatility 36 % 28 % 25 % Risk-free Interest Rate 2.5 % 1.5 % 1.1 % Dividend Yield 5.8 % 5.1 % 3.3 % Expected Life (in years) 2.9 3.0 4.1 The majority of the Company’s stock-based compensation awards are granted on an annual basis in the first quarter of each year. The expected volatility assumption is based on the Company’s analysis of historical volatility. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon the average daily closing rates during the period for U.S. treasury notes that have a life which approximates the expected life of the option. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts in relation to the stock price at the grant date. The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. Restricted Stock The following table provides the Company’s restricted stock activity for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019 : Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value (in thousands) Unvested as of February 3, 2018 5,699 $ 57.97 Granted 2,938 30.43 Vested (1,255 ) 68.38 Cancelled (693 ) 44.61 Unvested as of February 2, 2019 6,689 $ 45.29 The Company’s total intrinsic value of restricted stock vested was $44 million for 2018 , $86 million for 2017 and $140 million for 2016 . The Company’s total fair value at grant date of awards vested was $86 million for 2018 , $87 million for 2017 and $68 million for 2016 . Fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the market value of an unrestricted share on the grant date adjusted for anticipated dividend yields. As of February 2, 2019 , there was $108 million of total unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested restricted stock. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years. The weighted-average estimated fair value of restricted stock granted was $30.43 per share for 2018 , $39.21 per share for 2017 and $75.09 per share for 2016 . Tax benefits realized from tax deductions associated with restricted stock vested were $10 million for 2018 , $32 million for 2017 and $61 million for 2016 . Income Statement Impact The following table provides share-based compensation expense included in the Consolidated Statements of Income for 2018 , 2017 and 2016 : 2018 2017 2016 (in millions) Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy $ 29 $ 32 $ 31 General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses 68 70 65 Total Share-based Compensation Expense $ 97 $ 102 $ 96 Share-based compensation expense is based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The Company estimates forfeitures at the time of grant and adjusts, if necessary, in subsequent periods based on historical experience and expected future termination rates. The tax benefit associated with recognized share-based compensation expense was $20 million for 2018 , $23 million for 2017 and $32 million for 2016 . |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] | Revenue Recognition In the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , using the modified retrospective approach. Results for 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period consolidated financial statements have not been adjusted and continue to be presented under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. Accounts receivable, net from revenue-generating activities were $150 million as of February 2, 2019 and $144 million as of the beginning of the period upon adoption of the new standard. Accounts receivable primarily relate to amounts due from the Company's franchise, license and wholesale partners. Under these arrangements, payment terms are typically 60 to 75 days. The Company records deferred revenue when cash payments are received in advance of transfer of control of goods or services. Deferred revenue primarily relates to gift cards, loyalty and private label credit card programs and direct channel shipments, which are all impacted by seasonal and holiday-related sales patterns. The balance of deferred revenue was $331 million as of February 2, 2019 and $320 million as of the beginning of the period upon adoption of the new standard. The Company recognized $224 million as revenue in 2018 from amounts recorded as deferred revenue at the beginning of the period. The Company's deferred revenue balance would have been $287 million as of February 2, 2019 under accounting standards in effect prior to the adoption of the new standard. As of February 2, 2019 , the Company recorded deferred revenues of $316 million within Accrued Expenses and Other, and $15 million within Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Description of Business | Description of Business L Brands, Inc. (“the Company”) operates in the highly competitive specialty retail business. The Company is a specialty retailer of women’s intimate and other apparel, personal care, beauty and home fragrance products. The Company sells its merchandise through company-owned specialty retail stores in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Ireland and Greater China, and through its websites and other channels. The Company's other international operations are primarily through franchise, license and wholesale partners. The Company currently operates the following retail brands: • Victoria’s Secret • PINK • Bath & Body Works |
Fiscal Year | Fiscal Year The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. As used herein, “ 2018 ” and " 2016 " refer to the 52-week periods ended February 2, 2019 and January 28, 2017 , respectively. “ 2017 ” refers to the 53-week period ended February 3, 2018 . |
Basis of Consolidation | Basis of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments in unconsolidated entities where it exercises significant influence, but does not have control, using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognizes its share of the investee's net income or loss. Losses are only recognized to the extent the Company has positive carrying value related to the investee. Carrying values are only reduced below zero if the Company has an obligation to provide funding to the investee. The Company’s share of net income or loss of unconsolidated entities from which the Company purchases merchandise or merchandise components is included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s share of net income or loss of all other unconsolidated entities is included in Other Income (Loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s equity method investments are required to be reviewed for impairment when it is determined there may be an other than temporary loss in value. La Senza On January 6, 2019, the Company completed the sale of the La Senza business. For additional information, see Note 6 , "Restructuring Activities." |
Policy on consolidation of sales to equity investments | The Company accounts for investments in unconsolidated entities where it exercises significant influence, but does not have control, using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognizes its share of the investee's net income or loss. Losses are only recognized to the extent the Company has positive carrying value related to the investee. Carrying values are only reduced below zero if the Company has an obligation to provide funding to the investee. The Company’s share of net income or loss of unconsolidated entities from which the Company purchases merchandise or merchandise components is included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s share of net income or loss of all other unconsolidated entities is included in Other Income (Loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s equity method investments are required to be reviewed for impairment when it is determined there may be an other than temporary loss in value. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and Cash Equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with financial institutions and highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company’s outstanding checks, which totaled $13 million as of February 2, 2019 and $14 million as of February 3, 2018 , are included in Accounts Payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. |
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and derivative contracts with various major financial institutions. The Company monitors the relative credit standing of financial institutions with whom the Company transacts and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one entity. Typically, the Company’s investment portfolio is primarily comprised of U.S. government obligations, U.S. Treasury and AAA-rated money market funds, commercial paper and bank deposits. The Company also periodically reviews the relative credit standing of franchise, license and wholesale partners and other entities to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company records an allowance for uncollectable accounts when it becomes probable that the counterparty will be unable to pay. |
Marketable Securities, Securities, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Marketable Equity Securities These investments are recorded at fair value in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Beginning in 2018, the Company recognizes unrealized holding gains and losses in Other Income (Loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Prior to 2018, unrealized holding gains and losses were recorded, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories are principally valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, on a weighted-average cost basis. The Company records valuation adjustments to its inventories if the cost of inventory on hand exceeds the amount it expects to realize from the ultimate sale or disposal of the inventory. These estimates are based on management’s judgment regarding future demand and market conditions and analysis of historical experience. The Company also records inventory loss adjustments for estimated physical inventory losses that have occurred since the date of the last physical inventory. These estimates are based on management’s analysis of historical results and operating trends. |
Advertising Costs | Advertising Costs Advertising and marketing costs are expensed at the time the promotion first appears in media, in the store or when the advertising is mailed. Advertising and marketing costs totaled $476 million for 2018 , $383 million for 2017 and $325 million for 2016 . |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment The Company’s property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using the following depreciable life ranges: Category of Property and Equipment Depreciable Life Range Software, including software developed for internal use 3 - 7 years Store related assets 3 - 10 years Leasehold improvements Shorter of lease term or 10 years Non-store related building and site improvements 10 - 15 years Other property and equipment 20 years Buildings 30 years When a decision has been made to dispose of property and equipment prior to the end of the previously estimated useful life, depreciation estimates are revised to reflect the use of the asset over the shortened estimated useful life. The Company’s cost of assets sold or retired and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts with any resulting gain or loss included in net income. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major renewals and betterments that extend useful lives are capitalized. Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which they are largely independent of other assets or asset groups. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows related to the asset or asset group are less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes a loss equal to the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group. |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Intangible Assets The Company has certain intangible assets resulting from business combinations and acquisitions that are recorded at cost. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their respective estimated useful lives. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment each year in the fourth quarter and may be reviewed more frequently if certain events occur or circumstances change. The Company has the option to either first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that each reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value (including goodwill), or to proceed directly to the quantitative assessment which requires a comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit's fair value to its carrying value (including goodwill). If the Company determines that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company then estimates the fair value of all assets and liabilities of that reporting unit, including the implied fair value of goodwill, through either estimated discounted future cash flows or market-based methodologies. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference. The Company's reporting units are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other . The Company's reporting units that have goodwill are Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works and Greater China. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment each year in the fourth quarter and may be reviewed more frequently if certain events occur or circumstances change. The Company has the option to either first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, or to proceed directly to the quantitative assessment which requires a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying value. To determine if the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company will estimate the fair value, usually determined by the estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset, and compare that value with its carrying amount. If the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds the fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference. If future economic conditions are different than those projected by management, future impairment charges may be required. |
Leases and Leasehold Improvements | Leases and Leasehold Improvements The Company has leases that contain predetermined fixed escalations of minimum rentals and/or rent abatements subsequent to taking possession of the leased property. The Company recognizes the related rent expense on a straight-line basis commencing upon the store possession date. The Company records the difference between the recognized rental expense and amounts payable under the leases as deferred lease credits. The Company’s liability for predetermined fixed escalations of minimum rentals and/or rent abatements totaled $220 million as of February 2, 2019 and $210 million as of February 3, 2018 . These liabilities are included in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company receives construction allowances from landlords related to its retail stores. These allowances are generally comprised of cash amounts received by the Company from its landlords as part of the negotiated lease terms. The Company records a receivable and a landlord allowance at the lease commencement date (date of initial possession of the store). The landlord allowance is amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rent expense over the term of the lease (including the pre-opening build-out period), and the receivable is reduced as amounts are received from the landlord. The Company’s unamortized portion of landlord allowances, which totaled $278 million as of February 2, 2019 and $293 million as of February 3, 2018 , is included in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also has leasehold improvements which are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the period from the date the assets are placed in service to the end of the initial lease term. Leasehold improvements made after the inception of the initial lease term are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, including renewal periods, if reasonably assured. For information regarding the future impacts as a result of the Company's adoption of ASC 842, Leases, in the first quarter of 2019, refer to Note 2, "New Accounting Pronouncements." |
Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation The functional currency of the Company’s foreign operations is generally the applicable local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date, while revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The Company’s resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading purposes. All derivative instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. For derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity and reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged item affects earnings. Gains and losses that are reclassified into earnings are recognized in the same line item on the Consolidated Statement of Income as the underlying hedged item. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge ineffectiveness, if any, are recognized in current earnings. For derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument has an equal and offsetting impact to the carrying value of the liability on the balance sheet. For derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is recognized in current earnings in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Fair Value | Fair Value The authoritative guidance included in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. This authoritative guidance further establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: • Level 1—Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices of similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. • Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments, property and equipment and goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820 . |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, taxes currently payable or refundable are accrued, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for realizable operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in income tax rates is recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. In determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, the Company considers permanent differences between book and tax income and statutory income tax rates. The Company’s effective income tax rate is affected by items including changes in tax law, the tax jurisdiction of new stores or business ventures and the level of earnings. The Company follows a two-step approach to recognize and measure uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and for which actual outcomes may differ from forecasted outcomes. The Company’s income tax returns, like those of most companies, are periodically audited by domestic and foreign tax authorities. These audits include questions regarding the Company’s tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. At any one time, multiple tax years are subject to audit by the various tax authorities. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter for which the Company has established an accrual is audited and fully resolved or clarified. The Company adjusts its tax contingencies accrual and income tax provision in the period in which matters are effectively settled with tax authorities at amounts different from its established accrual, when the statute of limitations expires for the relevant taxing authority to examine the tax position or when more information becomes available. The Company includes its tax contingencies accrual, including accrued penalties and interest, in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets unless the liability is expected to be paid within one year. Changes to the tax contingencies accrual, including accrued penalties and interest, are included in Provision for Income Taxes on the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Self Insurance | Self-Insurance The Company is self-insured for medical, workers’ compensation, property, general liability and automobile liability up to certain stop-loss limits. Such costs are accrued based on known claims and an estimate of incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims. IBNR claims are estimated using historical claim information and actuarial estimates. |
Noncontrolling Interest [Policy Text Block] | Noncontrolling Interest Noncontrolling interest represents the portion of equity interests of consolidated affiliates not owned by the Company. |
Share-based Compensation | Share-based Compensation The Company recognizes all share-based payments to employees and directors as compensation cost over the service period based on their estimated fair value on the date of grant. The Company estimates award forfeitures at the time awards are granted and adjusts, if necessary, in subsequent periods based on historical experience and expected future forfeitures. Compensation cost is recognized over the service period for the fair value of awards that actually vest. Compensation expense for awards without a performance condition is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, using a single award approach (each award is valued as one grant, irrespective of the number of vesting tranches). Compensation expense for awards with a performance condition is recognized, net of estimated forfeitures, using a multiple award approach (each vesting tranche is valued as one grant). |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition In the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , using the modified retrospective approach. Results for 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period consolidated financial statements have not been adjusted and continue to be presented under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company recognizes revenue based on the amount it expects to receive when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer. The Company recognizes sales upon customer receipt of merchandise, which for direct channel revenues reflect an estimate of shipments that have not yet been received by the customer based on shipping terms and historical delivery times. The Company’s shipping and handling revenues are included in Net Sales with the related costs included in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company also provides a reserve for projected merchandise returns based on historical experience. Net Sales exclude sales and other similar taxes collected from customers. The Company offers certain loyalty programs that allow customers to earn points based on purchasing activity. As customers accumulate points and reach point thresholds, they can use the points to purchase merchandise in stores or online. The Company allocates revenue to points earned on qualifying purchases and defers recognition until the points are redeemed. The amount of revenue deferred is based on the relative stand-alone selling price method, which includes an estimate for points not expected to be redeemed based on historical experience. The Company sells gift cards with no expiration dates to customers. The Company does not charge administrative fees on unused gift cards. The Company recognizes revenue from gift cards when they are redeemed by the customer. In addition, the Company recognizes revenue on unredeemed gift cards where the likelihood of the gift card being redeemed is remote and there is no legal obligation to remit the unredeemed gift cards to relevant jurisdictions (gift card breakage). Gift card breakage revenue is recognized in proportion, and over the same period, as actual gift card redemptions. The Company determines the gift card breakage rate based on historical redemption patterns. Gift card breakage is included in Net Sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Revenue earned in connection with Victoria’s Secret's private label credit card arrangement is recognized over the term of the license arrangement and is included in Net Sales in the 2018 Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company also recognizes revenues associated with franchise, license, wholesale and sourcing arrangements. Revenue recognized under franchise and license arrangements generally consists of royalties earned and recognized upon sale of merchandise by franchise and license partners to retail customers. Revenue is generally recognized under wholesale and sourcing arrangements at the time the title passes to the partner. |
Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy | Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy The Company’s costs of goods sold include merchandise costs, net of discounts and allowances, freight and inventory shrinkage. The Company’s buying and occupancy expenses primarily include payroll, benefit costs and operating expenses for its buying departments and distribution network, rent, common area maintenance, real estate taxes, utilities, maintenance, fulfillment expenses and depreciation for the Company’s stores, warehouse facilities and equipment. |
General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses | General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses The Company’s general, administrative and store operating expenses primarily include payroll and benefit costs for its store-selling and administrative departments (including corporate functions), marketing, advertising and other operating expenses not specifically categorized elsewhere in the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements Policy | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and the Company revises its estimates and assumptions as new information becomes available. |
