I also had a miserable experience at this store. I went in and explained that I wanted a a straight dress (vs. poufy or multi-layered.) the elderly saleswoman told me that I wouldn't look good in that style because I was "too heavy in the hips and too bosom-y." What she failed to recognize is that puffy dresses will only emphasize big hips.
She then said, "So one of your goals is to minimize?" (I would like to note that I am in between a dress size 10 and 12.) The saleswoman also repeatedly swung open the curtains of the dressing room to help another customer, exposing me to people in the store. She gave me a strapless bra that was too large on me and then told me that I should consider a beaded empire-waisted dress even though I initially said, "I don't want empire-waisted or beaded." If you do go there, avoid elderly saleswomen!
