(1010 WINS) (NEW YORK) A woman who says she was videotaped in a dressing room at Bloomingdale's department store will file a lawsuit today in Manhattan Supreme Court against the store.

Carol Ketover, 60, will seek unspecified damages in the suit, said her lawyer Sanford Rubenstein.

Ketover, a semiretired real estate broker, says she was inside a dressing room at the store Feb. 17 when she noticed a video monitor behind several shopping bags. She saw her partly nude body in the monitor and heard laughter coming from outside the room, she said.

Ketover put her clothes back on and ran out of the room humiliated, she said.

Bloomingdale's spokeswoman Anne Keating said NBC's "Today" show had been taping at the store that day and had temporarily stored a monitor and camera in the dressing room.

"A mistake was made," she told The Daily News for Sunday editions. "We should have put a sign on the dressing room that it was closed. But the producer told me that the camera would only be working if someone was operating it."
