High street retailer New Look has been criticised by shoppers for allegedly imposing a “fat tax” across its plus-sized range. 零售高街品牌New Look最近被消费者斥责对大码消费者征收“肥胖税”。 The claims come after Maria Wassell, a retail supervisor from Kent, noticed a pair of trousers from the brand's Curves range were being sold for 15 per cent more than an identical pair in the store’s main collection. 在Kent品牌零售主管Maria Wassell在发现在New Look主要零售商品中，一条大码的裤子比正常码的裤子要贵15%。 The mother-of-two says that she was “absolutely disgusted” to discover New Look's Green Stripe Wide Leg Trousers were being sold for £22.99 in the Curves range but just £19.99 in their standard range. 这位两个还自母亲在发现New Look的一条绿条纹阔腿裤大码是22.99英镑，而正常码只要19.99英镑之后，称“这种做法实在令人作呕”。 Shocked at the price differences, Wassell investigated further by checking the retailer's website for more disparities in pricing. 在发现这种区别定价的震惊之余，Wassell又浏览了该零售店的官网看看是否存在更多区别定价的产品。 Here, she found that the Green Stripe Tres Jolie Slogan T-Shirt was being sold for £9.99 in the standard range and £12.99 in the Curves range – a 30 per cent difference in cost. |
