I hate to complain about anything on here, but I just feel like I need to share my experience with this place. I came in looking for a longline bra to fit in my wedding dress. The lady who works there (I'm assuming she's the owner) asked what size I was, and I told her that I'm a 34D. She said something to the effect of, "We don't have much in that size," and proceeded to go to the back of the store and bring me out the underwear. She told me to try it on and said she'd help me clasp it in the back when I was ready. I put it on, and it looked nice even though it wasn't exactly what I was looking for. I tried to clasp it myself and could almost get it but decided to call her over to help me. She came over, took one look at it and said something like, "There's no way this will fit. I don't think you're a 34." I responded by saying something like, "I'm pretty sure I am. All my bras are a 34." And she rudely responded, "Are you sure about that?" I told her I was and she continued to act like there was no way this was possible. It was as if I was this huge person trying to squeeze into some little, tiny underwear. And even if I had been, why would she talk to me like that? Why not just suggest I try a larger size politely? I'm sure a longline bra doesn't fit exactly like a regular bra anyway, so I would have been happy to try something else. Not surprisingly that was the biggest size she carried- the other style of longline bra she had she didn't even carry in a D-cup because apparently only small breasted women need bras. She seemed very defensive about her garment too. When she couldn't accommodate me, I told her it was okay because it wasn't what I was looking for anyway and that really seemed to upset her. She asked me all these angry questions and went on this whole thing about how great and supportive the garment is. I finally had to compliment the thing just so she'd let me leave the store and stop badgering me over it. The whole thing was miserable. I was totally floored by the way she spoke to me. It's hard to represent just how rude she was in writing, but I left feeling totally horrible about myself. If she had been trying to be helpful it would have been one thing, but to make me feel bad about my body is the complete antithesis of what lingerie shopping should be. What if I really had been someone who was heavier? What would she have said then? I can only imagine.
As far as the rest of the place goes, it's very small, not much bigger than a large closet which isn't usually my favorite kind of place to buy underwear. It looked like she had some pretty things, but I'll never know because there's no way I'll be back.
