I\'m amazed that people are that rude!! :mad:

I\'ve been lucky here (Australia) really - I spent one day looking around most of the big stores but all the bigger dresses were just so old fashioned. Had a disatrous go trying on my first dress in another store and oh God . . . I\'m trying to forget what I looked like. Ended up with me so upset. But we tried a local store the next day - another big woman served me and was fab - first thing she put me in was a strapless two piece!!! :o Something I would never have imagined myself wearing in a million years! And it was so flattering. Getting the right assitant makes so much difference. I mean, ok, the dress didn\'t fit me properly - she put a torsolette on me (so I had some shape and suppost) and then pinned the dress to that back of that. But that was better than I thought any of them would manage. I was so pleased with the service I didn\'t want to shop anywhere else. :D
