My experience at “No Larger Sizes. You Should Have Come in January.” — A Heartbreaking and Humiliating Experience store was…
My experience at this store was absolutely devastating, and I would not recommend it to anyone — especially to mothers who want to give their daughters a special and joyful moment.
We had an appointment scheduled, recommended by a friend, to buy my daughter’s prom dress — something that should have been a happy and unforgettable experience. At first, we were attended by a polite and kind lady who asked for dress references and guided us. Up to that point, everything seemed fine.
The problem started when my daughter tried on a dress. It was too small — something completely normal in any store — and all that was needed was to bring a different size or model. We were waiting in the fitting room when another employee suddenly came in, opened the curtain without any care or respect, and asked if everything was okay.
My daughter, still wearing the tight dress, said she didn’t like it and would like to try other options. That’s when, shockingly, the employee said out loud, in a harsh and humiliating tone:
“There are no larger sizes. You should have come in January.”
Those words were not only unnecessary — they were cruel. There are countless ways to communicate something like that with kindness and professionalism, but she chose the most humiliating way possible, directing it at a teenage girl in a vulnerable moment.
My daughter immediately broke down in tears and said she wanted to leave. In that instant, her self-esteem was shattered. What should have been a beautiful memory turned into a painful experience she will never forget.
Ironically, the store claims on Instagram that they carry sizes up to 24, but clearly that does not reflect the reality in-store — neither in availability nor in how customers are treated.
After we left the fitting room, we were called back and later the owner tried to speak with us, asking my daughter to return so they could help her choose a dress. But by then, the damage was already done. No dress is worth that kind of humiliation.
We later found out that the employee who humiliated my daughter is the owner’s daughter, which makes the situation even more unacceptable. Offering a discount to my friend afterward only made it clear that their priority is sales — not people.
We left with my daughter in tears, deeply hurt, without a dress, and without any desire to even attend her prom anymore. This is simply unacceptable.
Anyone working with the public — especially with teenagers during such an important moment — should have empathy, respect, and basic human decency. Sadly, this place has none of that.
Protect your daughters. Stay away from this place.They don't deserve any star.
