"I'll come along then," Kathy said, snagging a magazine to bring with her. "Someone has to bar the door if you decide to run away mid-measurements or something."
"Oh great," Letty said, rolling her eyes as she led both girls into the back room. "Freak her out before we even get started."
The back room had a full-body mirror, several stuffed chairs, and a rack for clothing, more like a sitting room than anything else. Kathy claimed a chair for herself, while Letty gestured for Ringo to stand in front of the mirror and begin to strip. "First, I'm going to take your measurements," she explained, tone professional, movements methodical. "We don't have any bullshit, arbitrary sizes here--what the hell does a size 2, or 5 or 9 even mean? Here, our clothing is sorted by measurements and we offer on-site tailoring and hemming, so that everything you wear fits you perfectly. You want yours in metric or Imperial, babe?"
