Me-Ality Finds the Perfect Jeans for Your Figure (Even Though It Looks Like an Airport Scanner)
Confession: I probably have about 20 pairs of jeans. Actually, take out the probably. I have 20 pairs of jeans. I know this because I counted last night. What I don't have? That one perfect pair. You know, the one that fits you just right; that's comfortably stretchy but never shrinks, fades or stretches out too much. Most importantly, though, is that this perfect pair should make you look slim. Every day. Even on days you don't feel it. But now, there's a solution for that.
Needless to say, I was so excited when I heard about the Me-Ality Size-Matching Station at Bloomingdale's. How this airport scanner look-a-like works: You stand in the booth for 10 seconds while a machine measures your body. (Don't worry: You don't have to remove any clothes -- unless you're wearing a bulky outer jacket -- and no one is going to frisk you afterwards.) Once you've been measured, you get a barcode that you scan into a computer, and the result is the most amazing thing ever: a list of jeans -- brand, size and style included -- that fit you the best and that the store currently has in stock. It's even ranked in order of how perfect the fit should be. If you're looking for something specific, like skinny jeans, you can check a box and the computer will take away any denim that doesn't match. Brilliant, right?
When I scanned in my code, I got a list of 20 possible pairs. A couple of which--Paige and Joe's--I'd never tried before. A saleswoman helped me pull about 10 pairs from the list. Every pair fit. Like, every.single.pair. It kind of felt like magic. Of course, that didn't mean I liked them all (that would be magic), but it was still pretty great to be able to comfortably zip each one. After narrowing it down to two favorites, I ended up going with the number one-ranked pair on my list: Paige Skyline Skinny jeans. My coworker Anna, also ended up in a pair she'd never tried before: Adriano Goldschmied Stilt. Serious scores.
We hit up the Me-Ality at the Bloomingdale's 59th St. Flagship store in NYC, but the free service is also available at four other Bloomingdale's locations: Garden City, NY; Chevy Chase, MD; Costa Mesa, CA and Santa Monica, CA. Additionally, it's in 20 malls nationwide. (Check out me-ality.com/locations to find one near you.) And once you're measured, your stats are saved. Simply create a profile on me-ality.com and the program will help you find the right size for online purchases, too. The company's next project: bras. Which means finding the perfect one will no longer require letting a stranger measure your boobs. Don't know about you, but I'll happily get scanned for that any day.
