I *loved* how they had tag-team sales people. Just like you said. One guy takes the fella over to fit the suit, the other runs interference with the lady to show her the shirts and ties. The lady goes ga-ga over the purty colors (something the fella doesn't want to be bothered with) and stays out of everyone's hair.

Brilliant business concept.

I really wish they ran ladies' shops like that. "Hi, I'm size N. What do you have that's blue?" and then the sales lady lays everything out on the table for you. That'd be so wonderful.

Nordstrom used to do that. At least when we shopped there, which was before Jr. was born and only shortly thereafter.

They were particularly good with shoes. At the time, they were about the only department store I could walk into and find shoes in my size.

They spoiled us.

So how would that work in reverse? The sales person takes the woman over to look at dresses while another one distracts the guy with the lingerie selection? ooo pretty colors...

And don't worry...the suits ride up with wear. :)
