Laleh slides a tape measure around your shoulder, reads the number with a tilted head and smiles to herself. "Stand still. I measure twice because a swimsuit has to move with you, and the river does not forgive a bad seam. There is one fabric I never use. Ask me which." The shop is closed but the lamp is on. Come in, stand by the table and tell me how you like to feel in the water. I will sew it so.
