To think shop changing rooms should be open!

[jerrywesterby]

What's the reason that they are still closed in some shops? New Look and my independent dept store have all their changing rooms open no problem. I need new bras and jeans, I would usually try on at a dozen pairs before I find the right ones so there's no way I've got the inclination (or money) to shop online for that. I think retail is massively shooting itself in the foot here when they want people in and spending money... Does anyone know of any other shops with open changing rooms?

It kind of defeats the point of actually going into the shop if you can’t try anything on, though I can understand why they have the changing rooms closed at the moment.

I always bought my clothes online even pre-pandemic, it’s so much easier! You can order in different sizes, try on in the comfort of your own home and return what doesn’t fit / doesn’t suit etc.

With a lot of places you can even book for them to pick up your returns from your home - seems like a no brainier to me 🤷‍♀️ I know M&S and H&M offer this, amongst others.

You must be loaded 😉... if I want to try on 5 pairs of jeans that’s £200-odd coming out of my account.. then all the hassle of sending maybe ALL of them back and waiting for the money to come back into my account.... I can’t afford to have lots of money tied up like that for weeks... so I don’t shop There 🤷‍♀️
