Saleslady: "Oh, I am sure that we will have no trouble. You surely don't look larger than a size 16." The customer puts on the dress and the saleslady tries to zip it up. The latter says, "Now take a deep breath and pull your tummy in." The zipper moves up to the waist.

With much huffing and puffing it creeps an inch above the waist. Frustrating Customer: "Oh, I can't get into it! I swore that I would never buy clothes again when I am even a few pounds overweight, It is so frustrating and I have my heart set on this dress." Saleslady: "Now don't be discouraged. I think we can make it. Reach back and pull down on the bottom of the zipper while I pull up and hold your tummy inand take a deep breath again." Nothing The customer will become blue in the face if she holds her breath much longer and tie saleslady is exhausted. The zipper is adamant.
