THE DRESSING ROOMA Story by Lorraine CiroWhat it is like to try on clothes in. Dressing room
DRESSING ROOMS
I hate to be six inches from my hips. What I see in the mirror makes me want to run out of the store screaming. I see miles of cellulite,miles. Are those rolls of flab,what is now called “muffin top? I have thunder thighs too. There is not a piece of clothing made that would fit me. If I try on a pair of jeans, they fit me up to my knees. Then they get stuck around my ankles and I have to waddle about looking for someone to help me take them off. I won’t look at blouses anymore. The last time I tried on a blouse I couldn’t take it off. I was sweating like a pig and the material stuck to my wavy arms like glue. The dressing room attendant didn’t have to call security when I banged my head on the door. They stood outside the door and told me I had to leave the premises. “I will if you come in here and pull this rag off my head.” © 2016 Lorraine Ciro |
