What happens when you do something that goes against your
personal integrity? When you’re filled
with internal conflict? You make
adjustments. I’m opting to post this on
my personal blog rather than my “professional” one because I feel it fits more here
than there even though the subject matter very much has to do with what my “professional”
blog is all about—finding the perfect fit for everyone. The conflict lays in the fact that I WANT to
do just that: find my customers the perfect fitting bra. But how much do I have to compromise in order
to do that while also selling the products that are available at Victoria’s
Secret?
Most folks know that VS bras don’t fit everyone. Anyone with a band size over 42 can tell you
that. Or a cup size over DDD/F. The difficulty lays in giving the customers their
perfect fitting and then having to sister size them into a VS bra even though
it may not be one that really, truly fits.
I also have to keep in mind that, really, not everyone wants a bra that
absolutely fits perfect; one that meets every facet of fit: projection, band
size, cup size, fabric, tactile feel.
Some folks just want one that fits pretty darn good. THOSE are the customers that I will focus
on. THEY are VS’s customers; along with the
ones who DO get a perfect fit in a VS bra.
The flip side: sister sizing a 28 band into a 32 may not
always work but I’ll do my best. Same
with those customers who are a G cup: if we’ve got their sister size band for
an DDD/F cup, I’ll have them try it.
They just may be satisfied with it.
Not everyone is as picky as me. I’m
on a quest for a perfect fit, even if it means ordering 136 bras and sending
back 135.
