mirrors in the dressing room - what’s the deal?

July 18th, 2008 · posted by Jean Vouté Pratt in basics looks

It’s hard work going through the racks trying to find pieces that you think will look good on you. You finally make your way to the back of the store, and are excited to see what pieces actually work well…on. Your excitement immediately turns to dread when you walk into the dressing room only to find that there are no mirrors in there. Ugh … Now you have to come outside the dressing room every time you want to assess your selection. No doubt, the salesperson is waiting for you to tell you how good the potato sack looks on you. Guess what? Most of us hate it! We hate that you don’t give us the privacy to decide what works for us on our own. Yesterday, I heard a girl say she leaves the store once she finds out there are no mirrors in the dressing room. So, why do retailers do it? Is it some ploy to get us to buy things we don’t necessarily look good in? Or is it simply to torture us? It certainly seems like torture for most of us. So… enlighten me, why?
