After facing much backlash for a huge “misunderstanding” with Oprah Winfrey that has discredited a sales clerk at Trois Pommes, a luxury boutique in Zurich, Switzerland, the unnamed sales clerk says the media mogul “lied.” Speaking under the condition of anonymity to SonntagsBlick, the country’s most widely read Sunday paper written in German, she tells them in part, “It is absolutely not true that I declined to show her the bag on racist grounds. I even asked her if she wanted to look at the bag.
“I wasn’t sure what I should present to her when she came in on the afternoon of Saturday July 20 so I showed her some bags from the Jennifer Aniston collection.
“I explained to her the bags came in different sizes and materials, like I always do.
“She looked at a frame behind me. Far above there was the 35,000 Swiss franc crocodile leather bag.
“I simply told her that it was like the one I held in my hand, only much more expensive, and that I could show her similar bags.”
