The crimes come in thick and fast. Stupid customers, stupid colleagues and photo documentation of some down right awful things.

It never stops for the Bra Police...

You want what you don't want and don't want what you want

(cust comes in looking for a bra to go under a dress, she needs a strapless that flattens her down)

Cust: I've got four layers on
EM: you need them out there!
Cust: I haven't got a bra on, is that ok?
EM: I'll get one in your size and we can take it from there...
Cust: I'm a 36ff...
(EM gets a strapless, it fits, does what she needs it to. It's perfect...)
Cust: I don't like these bulgy bits (on her back just behind her arms, the dress is cutting in causing it because it's too small over her boobs)
EM: ok
Cust: do you think it's my dress doing that because its too small?
EM: it might be because they don't really make dresses for women with boobs...
Cust: I really want to wear this... Do you have any that are not padded?
EM: we don't, the moulding makes sure the cups don't sag, we do have a basque that is not moulded but you can't take the straps off...
Cust: can I try it?
EM: sure!
(EM gets it)
Cust: oh... That's not going to be any good...
EM: have you got anything to go over your shoulders to cover the straps?
Cust: no, and it's going to be such a hard colour to match up... Let's give it a go anyway
(cust tries it on, it pokes out of the top and out of the back)
Cust: it's a bit big in the cup but I like it, it's ever do comfy...
EM: it is poking out the back so for what you need it for its not quite right, the strapless was by far the best...
Cust: I don't like it... Do you have any bodies?
EM: we might have one...
Cust: if this is in a different size I would have it... (the basque)
EM: do you want me to look for the body first?
Cust: yes...
(EM goes off, finds one in her size)
Cust: I've ripped the strap on my dress now...
EM: oh no! (fakes shock... The dress looks like a nighty and is the most ridiculous fit ever... It's not a shame...)
Cust: (looks at the body) I can't wear that, I'm long in the body. I've never found one that's comfortable...
EM: well we could give this a try and just see...
Cust: no, I don't want to...
EM: ok, I'll go and look for the basque in a different size...
Cust: ok
(EM finds the basque cust tries it on)
Cust: oh... I don't like how the cup fits, is it supposed to do that?
EM: yes...
Cust: let's try the dress on... I've got to be careful now I've buggered it... No. Im bulging... Is this a 36?
EM: no this one is a 34 as the other was too big
Cust: last time I was fitted I was told I was a 36f
EM: they don't all fit the same, even in the same brand, some will be tighter some looser...
Cust: oh... I think I'm going to leave it...
EM: that's fine...
