I was pleasantly greeted by the front desk associate. I informed her that I only wanted to browse, not try on, not purchase. After returning the information card to her, I proceeded to lift the chain leading to the dress area. *cue music of doom* She glared at me like I was a toddler with my hand in the candy jar and told me to hold on and that a consultant would be with me momentarily. I politely told her that I did not need a consultant to ""help"" me browse. She responded that a consultant would be happy to give me a tour. What part of ""browse"" she could not understand, or rather, refused to acknowledge, was beyond me. I pointed out that first I need to see if the dresses are even my style and taste before proceeding with store ""procedure"", trying to avoid wasting my time and theirs. With a restrained smirk, she let me through the chained area. It only took five minutes to browse all selections. Not my style of gowns whatsoever. I'm so glad I looked before I leaped because that saved me a lot of time. I walked right out of there. Won't be back, either.
