This was my first visit to a Lane Bryant store and I'd never shopped it online before either. Walking in, I didn't see any employees. I started to browse the racks; I came specifically for a pair of dress pants. The store seemed to mostly hold casual wear and it was not very easy to identify sections of casual wear, business attire, etc. I'm not sure if it is just this location or all of Lane Bryant, but finding any business attire was difficult as most of the clothing seemed to be just tops (not blouses) and loungewear. Of what was priced, the prices seemed astoundingly high and not even everything had a price.
As I browsed, I made my way deeper into the store near the counter where I saw two employees talking to each other. As I continued, they greeted other guests who'd come in that were of similar skin tone as them, but not myself or the few other women that had my skin tone.
I found a few pairs of slacks that might work, so I approached the staff to inquire on fitting rooms. I was told to just pick a room and she pointed toward a corner of the store.
I pulled a few pants off the rack in the fitting room also, where you hang what didn't work out, as it was quite full.
That fitting room rack is actually where I found the pair that I ended up purchasing. I made the purchase solely in that I didn't feel like going to more stores and the pants I found should work. I am going to try them on again at home and they may be returned because I don't feel they're worth the price.
I'll NEVER return to THIS Lane Bryant or ANY again. read more
