Promise you've already done it? Cross your heart? Then here it is, with the spacing and punctuation corrected as well:
As fashion-conscious Gilly Woodward left Harrods last Friday, she felt proud of the $90 fashion jeans that she had just bought. But when Gilly, 31, returned to the store the next day to do some shopping, she was barred from entry because she was wearing the same jeans. Gilly, now back in Liverpool, had been staying with friends in London for a few days.
She explained what had happened. 'I was walking through the swing doors when suddenly I was stopped by a large uniformed security guard. He pointed at my knees and said my jeans were torn and I couldn't enter. I tried to tell him that I bought them in Harrods the day before, and that the torn bits were fashionable. But he would not* listen. He told me to get out. By this time a crowd of people had gathered. I left immediately because I had never felt so embarrassed in my life.'
A spokeperson from Harrods said that the dress code was introduced in 1989, and it states no beachwear, no backpacks, and no torn denims.
*refused to listen ... would be just as good; did not listen .... OK but not as strong. Hope that helps.
