i was looking around for malls in the detroit area to visit my friend and there aren't Lane Bryant's around in some of them. i can understand not having Torrid but Lane Bryant is a staple for me!
the thing that REALLY pissed me off was this store. 579. 579 is a national retail apparel chain operating in the continental united states and puerto rico, carrying trendy junior clothing featuring sizes 00 thru 9 WTF! it's bad enough i feel fat! the only store i don't feel fat in is target because the 2xls are too big for me! EVEN AMERICAN EAGLE GOES UP TO SIZE 18 ONLINE! sorry for people who shop there, but i think this store is lame, and is affecting anyone above the size of 9 who has heard of it. this is how we get lindsay lohan skinny and it's.... GRR! u heard mine, express your view. |

579 is targeted towards skinny people the way there are stores who focus on people with larger sizes.
I have a friend who varies between a 00 and a 0. And it's so hard for her to find a pair of good fitting jeans. This is why she needs stores like 579. Abercrombie sizes run big. Normally, I'm a size 4-6, but I can fit into an Abercrombie size 2. You wanna see what really makes people feel fat? Come to Asia. I'm considered fat in Asia. Everyone else around me is stick-thin, and here in Hong Kong, I have to buy Ls or even XLs for pants in some stores. But in the U.S., I wear a size small in pants. |
