I
went
to
Bloomingdale’s
in
Aventura
Mall,
located
in
Aventura,
Florida,
which
is
just
north
of
the
City
Of
Miami.
I
was
looking
for
a
dress
for
my
daughter’s
wedding.
It
was
a
joyful
event
shopping
with
both
of
my
daughters.
I
went
to
Bloomingdale
because
I
wanted
something
special.
The
store
was
basically
empty
of
customers.
I
went
up
to
a
sales
woman
to
ask
her
to
point
me
towards
the
evening
dress
area.
She
said
she
would
help
me.
What
size
did
I
need?
I
told
her
I
needed
a
14,
maybe
a
16
as
evening
dresses
tend
to
run
two
sizes
smaller
than
normal.
she
told
me
there
was
nothing
in
the
store
that
size.
She
said
she
was
going
to
look
but
that
they
only
had
size
twos
and
fours.
I
said
I
would
have
to
go
shopping
elsewhere
then.
This
sales
lady,
then
said
not
to
bother
looking
because
nothing
was
going
to
be
bigger
than
a
size
2
or
4
or
in
all
of
Aventura
Mall.
She
gave
me
the
option
of
trying
on
a
size
2,
and
if
I
liked
it,
then
she
would
order
it
in
a
larger
size
for
me,
if
it
was
available.
I
said
that
was
absolutely
ridiculous.
I
can’t
believe
that
a
sales
person
would
talk
to
a
customer
that
way.
A
good
sales
person
would
know
that
over
68%
of
American
women
are
a
size
16
or
larger.
The
plus
size
industry
is
valued
at
over
$288
billion
this
year,
and
expected
to
reach
550
billion
by
2030.
I
wonder
if
her
manager
knows
the
sale
that
she
just
lost.
Not
only
my
sale,
but
for
my
mother
as
well.
I
was
ready
to
spend
upwards
of
$700
for
a
dress
that
day
at
Bloomingdale.
But
I
left
disgusted.
My
family
would
not
let
me
home
go
until
we
had
gone
to
the
other
shops
to
find
the
mother
of
the
bride
dress
I
was
looking
for.
Absolutely
no
problem
finding
it
everywhere
else.
I
came
home
with
not
only
my
dress
for
my
daughter’s
wedding,
but
also
my
mother’s
dress.
Bye
bye
Bloomingdale.
