It looks like even the most basic errands like shopping can serve up interactions rife with questionable manners and outright rudeness.

A modern-day shopper's tale of buying a dress at Kmart recently turned into a showcase of body-shaming, leaving her ruffled and in disbelief.

The incident sprang from Kmart’s 'Luxe Maxi Dress'. For those who missed our article: the budget-friendly retail giant, has released its version of the international bestseller–the SKIMS dress.

Yes, the one made popular by Kim Kardashian that had Australian shoppers experiencing quite the mania around this viral dress dupe, which is priced at just $25.

The stylish and cost-effective dress is a sell-out in stores, and it was in hot pursuit of this dress that a Kmart shopper, who goes by @tahrnia on social media, found herself in a sticky situation.

'I have seen this Kookai, SKIMS dupe dress from Kmart all over my “For You” page, so I decided to find one myself,' she explained in her video.

After a successful treasure hunt, she found the coveted dress in the last available, Size 8, at her local store.

As she picked up the item, she was accosted by another customer.

'And she goes, “Oh, is that a Size 8?” And I said, “Yeah”. And she’s like, “You might fit a size 10 better”,' the shopper recalled.

She had this to say about that customer, 'One, not having a dig at Size 10s or anything, there’s nothing wrong with that–I can fit a Size 10. But like, what the f***?! Get your own dress, you little rat.'

Moving past the uncomfortable incident, the shopper was thrilled to flaunt her perfectly fitting dress in a subsequent clip.

Social media users were also in disbelief about the encounter. One user wrote: ‘What the! Who says that to someone! (Size) 8 is perfect for you!’

‘Definitely, she said that because she wanted it! You look stunning,’ another person claimed.


'Looks so good on you. I'm glad you didn’t fall for her trick. The nerve of some people,' a third person commented.

The incident serves as a reminder that shopping problems in the real world aren't just about sold-out items and long queues. Body-shaming is unfortunately present in every corner of our society, and it's disheartening to see it in something as innocuous as shopping.

Retrospectively, our brave Kmart shopper summarised her takeaway from the experience. 'I honestly think she just wanted the last size 8.'

She added, 'For all she knows, I could have been really struggling with my body image.'

I think she looks stunning and a size 10 would have swam on her and looked ridiculous

 

[IamJane]

Of course she does. This is what these "influencers" do. It's an ego trip for them - clickbait so people will give them compliments...they can't survive without the attention.

 

[Granny*Deb]

That was a tad rude. She could be shopping not for herself but maybe a gift. Remember assumption and presumption can make us fools

 

[gordon1940]

Been a while since I fitted into a size 14, even longer for a 10

I have NEVER fitted into a size 10 or size 14. I am a "Bloke"!!!!!

The stylish and cost-effective dress is a sell-out in stores, and it was in hot pursuit of this dress that a Kmart shopper, who goes by @tahrnia on social media, found herself in a sticky situation.

'I have seen this Kookai, SKIMS dupe dress from Kmart all over my “For You” page, so I decided to find one myself,' she explained in her video.

After a successful treasure hunt, she found the coveted dress in the last available, Size 8, at her local store.

As she picked up the item, she was accosted by another customer.

'And she goes, “Oh, is that a Size 8?” And I said, “Yeah”. And she’s like, “You might fit a size 10 better”,' the shopper recalled.

She had this to say about that customer, 'One, not having a dig at Size 10s or anything, there’s nothing wrong with that–I can fit a Size 10. But like, what the f***?! Get your own dress, you little rat.'

Moving past the uncomfortable incident, the shopper was thrilled to flaunt her perfectly fitting dress in a subsequent clip.

Social media users were also in disbelief about the encounter. One user wrote: ‘What the! Who says that to someone! (Size) 8 is perfect for you!’

‘Definitely, she said that because she wanted it! You look stunning,’ another person claimed.


'Looks so good on you. I'm glad you didn’t fall for her trick. The nerve of some people,' a third person commented.

The incident serves as a reminder that shopping problems in the real world aren't just about sold-out items and long queues. Body-shaming is unfortunately present in every corner of our society, and it's disheartening to see it in something as innocuous as shopping.

Retrospectively, our brave Kmart shopper summarised her takeaway from the experience. 'I honestly think she just wanted the last size 8.'

She added, 'For all she knows, I could have been really struggling with my body image.'

A bit of a nothing story. Where is the article about the devastation in Morocco at the moment.

I think she looks stunning and a size 10 would have swam on her and looked ridiculous

I have NEVER fitted into a size 10 or size 14. I am a "Bloke"!!!!!

Of course she does. This is what these "influencers" do. It's an ego trip for them - clickbait so people will give them compliments...they can't survive without the attention.
