Talbots

Let me first say that I love Talbots. However, I walked into the River Road store yesterday, and I wasn’t greeted. I didn’t think much of it at first. I then browsed a while, without any acknowledgement or offers of help. Honestly, at this point, I was happy to «go it alone». I enjoy shopping without assistance.
I THEN went into the dressing area with several items to wait for a changing room. Two sales associates were there when I entered. Both associates saw me and gave me a brief, cold glance. Why this was, I could not guess. I was well dressed in business attire, and I was smiling when I entered the room (not that what one is wearing should excuse those kind of facial expressions). I can only guess that perhaps they saw a woman in her 20’s, and deemed me not worth their time, incorrectly assuming I wouldn’t be buying anything. I didn’t receive so much as a smile (let alone a greeting or offer of help) from either woman the entire time I was there. Granted, both were assisting other customers at the time, but I would have been more than happy to wait, had either simply acknowledged me. I stood for several minutes waiting, to no avail. Not a word. I finally decided to hang my items on the rack, and then walked out of the store.
I felt extremely unwelcome at this Talbots, and was appalled at the rudeness of the associates. I will not return to this location ever in the future.

I love this store when I’m shopping for my wife. The selections are great and the service is TOP HAT! It’s hard to find suitable work outfits for my Mrs. So I’m greatful for Talbots, (women sizes)

I really enjoyed shopping here! The store is laid-​out in a consumer friendly way! Meaning: It’s very easy to navigate the store and it’s easy to see eye-​catching outfits! Very visually appealing in my humble opinion. Staff is friendly and very helpful. They offer a discount card and a credit card.
