  • I don't really need help but she seems excited so I tell her what I am looking for. I note that I wear a size small and then she repeats back "Okay, so small-medium."
  • I respond, "No, I wear a size small. I cannot wear a Medium." Then she nods her head in confirmation and runs off.

  • A few minutes later, the same salesperson comes up to me with a suggested piece. I look at the tag and...it's a Medium.
  • Again, I tell her "Well, do you have a Small? I can't wear a Medium.l" To which she replies "No, but the Medium may do better,"
  • it's so short when it's a size Small." Then she tries. to guess my height. "You're like 4...." I cut her off to say I am 5 feet tall.

  • She makes an unconvinced face like for some reason I would lie about being slightly taller than my already-short self. (Also, other than stockings, IDK why height would be relevant.)
  • Tired of the conversation, I agree to try the incorrectly sized set. I go into the dressing room and try to put on the top
  • and of course, it is too big. The back ties could not be tied to my waist without also crumbling in the actual lingerie fabric.

  • Fortunately, I had already grabbed a different piece in my actual size and liked it enough to buy it. I am mystified.
  • I have no idea what I did that caused her to act that way. Perhaps my clothes appeared loose and thus, made me look a bit thicker??
  • Not exactly sure. I am very confused and frankly annoyed that she wasted my time. I have half a mind to go visit the store
