Maybe they would give you an after hours private appointment.

Try making a private appointment and requesting the worker or owner wear a mask.

I have done this for open sales in Israel, asking if I can come 30 minutes early since I know they won't limit the people at the sale and it will quickly crowd indoors.

She certainly has the right to ask respectfully, and the owner has the right to agree if she wants the business or refuse if it's not worth it to her, at which point the customer then has the right to go someplace else that will accommodate her.

I believe that NY State has a mask mandate, so she certainly has the right to ask that the owner obey the law.

But she need not be obnoxious. OP, just call, tell them that you're shopping for a robe and pajamas, but need to ensure that everyone is wearing masks when you're there, when would be a good time to come in. If its a problem, call the next store. Someone will want your money.

The owner of the store can also reply "I'm not comfortable wearing a mask".

If I make a private appointment I always ask on the phone if the owner or worker is willing to wear a mask. I ask this when I make the appointment. If they would say no I wouldn't go.

As a customer I think you can request certain services. A service provider can refuse to offer those services.

Every lingerie shop where I live offers appointment only. Lots of people like to book privately.

If the owner doesn't do private appointment she will inform you she doesn't offer that service.

This. I've been places where I know the owner doesn't usually wear a mask. But when it comes to business people don't mind wearing it for a little while. No one has ever said "Nah go take your money elsewhere".

Money talks I guess. But if someone would of refused I would just go elsewhere.

OP doesn't specify a store. Most stores where I live have private appointments and walk in hours.

Is it so wrong to call and ask if the store offers private appointments? If they don't they will tell you.

Really? Isn't Monsey filled without thousands of Jews? There only two stores or something you are positive don't offer appointments for any reason ever?

There are 4/5 stores in Monsey that sell lingerie. The one's that offer a private appointment is only for a kallah.
