Those TSA scanners are finally being used for good, not evil. Me-Ality ("measured reality", formerly known as MyBestFit) does a 3D scan of your body and matches it against a database of retail sizes and cuts.
You know how you can be a 12 in one store and a 15 in another, and then both a 10 and a 12 in the same store depending on what style of jeans you're trying on? That's the problem these folks have figured out how to solve. You'll get a customized booklet listing the styles and sizes that look and feel great on YOUR body specifically. And did I mention it's free?
The scanner at North Point Mall is the second of its kind anywhere (the first is in King of Prussia, which sounds to me like a rather uncomfortable monarch), but they're coming to Perimeter and Cumberland soon. (Have they never heard of Lenox? How about some ITP love, guys?)
I can't *yet* give it five stars because when I tried it, the kiosk basically said "None for Gretchen Weiners; bye!", but I'm a 26W/50x30, so this is an early-adopter issue; they're working on adding Torrid and other retailers. But the technology is exciting and I'll automatically get an email when they do have styles to recommend. read more
