Adele seems very bossy and opinionated to others. She says what's on her mind.This is all she has because she's aged and lost her good looks. I guess the corset made her feel sexy even though she wasn't very shapely as she got older.They say she has the right to do so because she a seasoned resident in her neighborhood
I see that she used to liked the finer things in life like shopping, but now she doesn't even care to do so. Although she talks with confidence, she was insecure about her body. That's why she wants the corset, to hide the flab in all the right places. So she goes to this small antique shop to find what she needs. Mr. Alexander was rude because he didn't even help at all. To me I feel like he's just a waste. The ladies in the back of the curtain did. Adele was vert pleased when the ladies fitted her for the corset and she was flattered because if gave her the beautiful shape that she was seeking.
I agree , the fact that Adele knows that she is aging it doesn't bother her what she say to people.so she is enjoying her self while it last. Also i think she got a attitude because the way she cut her eyes on people who look back her on pp.248
