小姐，你好，我来取衣服。给你我的票。
Hello Miss. I'm here to pick up my clothes. Here is my ticket.
这是您的衣服。
Here are your clothes.
嗯？这是我的衣服吗？
Huh? These are my clothes?

Aren't they?
颜色不对，大小也不对，款式都不对！我是女人。
The colors are wrong. The size is wrong. The style is also wrong! I'm a woman.
那，这是谁的衣服？
Then whose clothes are these?
啊，我的衣服。谢谢。
These are my clothes. Thank you.
