Do stores like AE & Bluenotes have security cameras in the dressing rooms?


Question Posted Thursday August 13 2009, 2:23 pm

I heard that some stores have hidden cameras and two way mirrors. I mostly only shop at stores like AE, Bluenotes, Aeropostale, etc.

Former employees: Do these stores have those?

Because I will only shop online if they do!

I've never worked in either of these stores, but I have shopped there. However, the only store where I've tried stuff on out of these 3 is Aeropostale.

Honestly, it would be highly illegal of them to have cameras and two way mirrors in the dressing room - just like it is illegal to have cameras in bathrooms & changing rooms at school. It's considered sexual harassment because even though they're not touching you, they're watching you & it's just as uncomfortable & awkward.

They're not allowed to do that, and if they did do it, they could have a very serious issue on their hands if someone found out & reported it. I don't think they do, so I think you should be okay. However, if you're really uncomfortable with it regardless, then just order online. Just remember that when ordering online you can't try anything on so you have to be sure if it's going to fit or not based on experience. :)

I'm sorry, I do not shop in these stores
BUT. If you're honestly frightend about camaras and two-way mirrors, I have some tips.


First, before you get into the dressing room, check around outside first. Look carefully, because some camaras can be hidden in places you would never even think of. Check floors, corners, a vase of flowers?
Then check inside the dressing room, check the ceiling.

Once/if you've concluded there are no camaras, check the mirror(s)

Theres are tips and tricks on how to tell if a mirror or two-way, or just ordinary.
