                          INTIMATE BRANDS REPORTS 1999
                       EARNINGS PER SHARE INCREASE OF 21%

Columbus, Ohio; February 16, 2000 - Intimate Brands, Inc. (NYSE:IBI), the parent
company of Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works, today announced 1999 diluted
earnings per share for the fifty-two weeks ended January 29, 2000 of $1.84,
compared to $1.51 last year, an increase of 22%. These amounts are before
reductions to earnings per share of $0.03 in 1999 and $0.02 in 1998 for the
impact of a change in accounting for gift certificates, store credits and
layaway sales, discussed below. Including the impact of the change in
accounting, diluted earnings per share of $1.81 increased 21% year-over-year. In
1999, sales of $4.511 billion were up 16.1% over 1998, while operating income
was $793.5 million, an increase of 18% after restatement for the accounting
change. Both comparable store sales and selling square feet increased 12%, while
Victoria's Secret Catalogue sales grew 5%.

Leslie H. Wexner, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased to
report earnings in excess of initial expectations for both the year and the
quarter. We have reported annual earnings increases of at least 20% every year
since going public in October 1995."

Before the accounting change, fourth quarter diluted earnings per share were
$1.17 versus $0.93 a year ago, a 26% increase. After the accounting change,
fourth quarter diluted earnings per share were $1.10 versus $0.88 a year ago, a
25% increase. Fourth quarter 1999 sales increased 17.7% to $1.802 billion,
driven by a 12% change in selling square feet, an 11% comparable store sales
increase and a catalogue sales increase of 12%. Fourth quarter operating income
increased 20% to $470.8 million after restatement for the accounting change.

Victoria's Secret grew to almost a $3 billion brand in 1999. The Victoria's
Secret team continued to build strong brand equity through innovative product
introductions, expanding new business opportunities such as Victoria's Secret
Beauty and building its global presence through the catalogue and
www.VictoriasSecret.com.

Victoria's Secret Stores sales increased 17% to $2.138 billion for the year,
while operating profits grew 20%. Sales at Victoria's Secret Catalogue were up
5%, with operating profit up 10%. Sales from www.VictoriasSecret.com grew
strongly throughout the year.

Bath & Body Works delivered a 22% increase in sales for the year, and operating
profits grew 24%. This was driven by continued new product offerings and
well-executed store operations. The White Barn Candle Co., launched in the Fall
of 1999, exceeded an aggressive plan.

Mr. Wexner added, "We've completed a year of exceptional growth and have
embarked on what should be another. We remain intent on delivering consistent,
superior earnings growth to our investors. We will continue to focus on
maintaining and building brand dominance; maximizing our channels of
distribution: stores, catalogue and e-commerce; and capitalizing on new business
opportunities such as Victoria's Secret Beauty and White Barn Candle Co."

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR GIFT CERTIFICATES, STORE CREDITS AND LAYAWAY SALES
Intimate Brands also announced a change in accounting for gift certificates,
store credits and layaway sales. The Company, which has not been contacted by
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), chose to address this matter after
the issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements.

This change in accounting impacts the timing of recognizing income from gift
certificates, store credits and layaway sales, but does not impact the Company's
reported cash flows, net sales or comparable store sales. Additionally, there is
no impact to customers holding unredeemed gift certificates or store credits,
nor to customers who currently have merchandise on layaway.

The Company had historically recognized net receipts/(redemptions) from gift
certificates and store credits as a reduction/(increase) to general,
administrative and store operating expenses. Layaway sales were recognized
upon receipt of the initial payment. The Company now defers the recognition
of income on these transactions until the merchandise is delivered to the
customer.

The Company will give retroactive effect to this accounting change by restating
its previously issued financial statements as of January 30, 1999 and January
31, 1998, and for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 30,
1999. An amended 1998 Form 10-K containing these financial statements will be
filed as soon as practicable. The change in accounting reduced reported earnings
per share for each of the fiscal years 1997 through 1999 by $0.02-$0.03 per
share per year.

Intimate Brands, Inc. is the leading specialty retailer of intimate apparel,
beauty and personal care products through the Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body
Works brands. As of January 29, 2000, Victoria's Secret products are available
through 896 lingerie and beauty stores, the Victoria's Secret Catalogue and
online at www.VictoriasSecret.com. The Company offers a broad selection of
personal care, home fragrance and decor products through 1,214 Bath & Body Works
and White Barn Candle Co. stores. The White Barn Candle Co. was launched in 1999
as the newest brand in the Intimate Brands portfolio.

                                 IMPACT ON EPS

Our change in accounting for gift certificates, store credits and layaway sales
results in the following impacts on EPS:

- - A quarterly EPS re-calendarization, which shifts earnings from the fourth
  quarter to the first and second quarters.

- - An EPS reduction of $.02 in 1997, $.02 in 1998 and $.03 in 1999

This change had minimal impact on annual and quarterly growth rates.
