I have gone into Stores like TJMaxx, Ross, Marshalls. My favorite in Burlington Coat. I have tried on women's clothes with out much problem. Both Ross and Burlington have a large selection of dresses for women and Plus sizes. For lingerie, I love the Outlet Stores. Vanity Fair is my fav. I've never had a problem trying on bras there.
Most larger Corporate Stores realize one thing above all. MONEY. They are in the business of selling clothes. So if it means allowing you to try the clothes on and you'll buy them. They'll do it. At the end of the day it means a happy customer and more money in their pocket.
Plus, if a Store says " No" to you, then you go to their competition Store and they say " Yes" to you. Who's going to get your business in the future.
Besides, if you think about it they have been allowing it for YEARS. Do you think a Store has ever stopped a women from trying on a man's shirt, jeans or slacks. No, they never do. So what's the big deal about allowing a man to try on women's clothes.
There are a couple things to remember and consider if you decide you want to try on women's clothes in a Store.
1. No matter who you are, man or women. You CANNOT try on panties. Do you really thing someone else wants a pair of panties that another person just tried on YUCK. So, no panties in the dressing room. Other than that, Bras, slips, camis, skirt, dresses etc. are allowed.
2. Use the Men's dressing room. Sounds simple, but some guys thing they can use the women's dressing room just because they are trying on a women's blouse. Don't be stupid.
3. Realize most management will allow you to try thing on. However, that does not mean all the Staff has been informed, or is on board with it. I've only ran into one person who told me I could not try on dresses. He was the attended at the Dressing room. He said I could not try on dresses in the men's dressing room. I told him " Yes I can, I've done it before, don't make a big deal out of it"
He still said no. I asked for the Store Manager to come over. The Store manager did and she told me there was NO problem with me trying on women's clothes in the mens dressing room. She damn near carried the dresses to the room for me. I tried them on and bought a cute dress.
4. If you have intentions of trying things on in a dressing room, please be considerate enough to purchase something.
Don't go in there with 4 dresses, 5 skirts and 3 bras then come out and say there was nothing you like and you don't want to purchase any of them.. It just make you ( and the rest of us) look like Pervs. Have intentions buying something. It shows Management your a serious shopper.
5. Trying on women's clothes in a dressing room is a HUGE turn on, but please don't try and show it, when you leave the dressing room. Again, makes you look like a perv.
6. If you do find a Store that does allow you to try on women's clothes, please tell everyone here about it, like I did.
If more of us know about stores that allow us to try on women's clothes, and more of us do it. It means more business for those Stores that are willing to allow it. Which means more profit for them, which makes them happy and ever happier to see us walk in and try things on.
