I was in a clothier deciding what fabrics I wanted for a shirt. there was a person helping me. I would ask to look more closely at a fabric and then ask to see another. After a few iterations of this I saw a shirt I liked and asked to try it on. It was too big for me since I have IRL lost quite a bit of weight. I asked if she could find a smaller size and she nodded, and went away. She came back and started helping other people in the store without acknowledging me. I tried to get her attention and she kept ignoring me. I felt a bit put off & then I woke up.
Dreams about shopping or selecting fabrics can often symbolize choices and the process of self-discovery or transformation. In your dream, being in a clothier may represent your desire to explore different aspects of your identity or to redefine yourself, especially in light of your recent weight loss. The act of selecting fabrics suggests that you are evaluating different options or opportunities available to you, perhaps reflecting on how you want to present yourself to the world.
The fact that you requested to look more closely at the fabrics might indicate a desire for clarity or a deeper understanding of your current situation. Trying on a shirt that was too big could symbolize feelings of being out of alignment with your new self-image or changes in your life; it suggests that you are still adjusting to these changes and may feel that you haven't completely found the right fit for your new self.
The helper ignoring you after you requested a smaller size could reflect feelings of being overlooked or unsupported in your journey. You might be seeking assistance or validation from others during this transition, but you feel that your needs are not being addressed. This part of the dream could highlight feelings of frustration or isolation you're experiencing in your waking life.
Overall, this dream may encourage you to consider how you're navigating changes in your self-perception and the support systems you have in place. It might be a call to seek out those who can help you during this period of transformation or to express your needs more clearly to those around you.
