It's my biggest pleasure to have worked with the lovely ladies at French novelty. They have been so easy going and I couldn't have had a better experience with them, I am truly blessed. Thank you for helping me pick out the perfect dress, Neesh and Katie. You both were some of the sweetest people I have ever met, and for that, I couldn't thank you enough. Even if I walked out with no dress, I definitely enjoyed my encounter with you two. Very professional, kind hearted, and easy going. I couldn't recommend this place enough. Already sent a few people your way and will be sending a bunch more. Thank you for everything!

Considering I had to make an appointment to visit this slightly upgraded thrift store with limited selection. I was not impressed at all and wasted time. The girl who made my appointment was great but the whole experience was a disappointment.

Had an absolutely amazing experience here around 2 weeks ago while looking for my senior prom dress! Was especially drained after coming from another boutique, but the staff took us right in and assisted in finding my dream dress. Thank you so much to all associates, and a special shout-out to Julia for being the sweetest/most helpful throughout the process. While in the fitting room, Julia went through the store and picked up a few dresses she thought I'd like - she was absolutely correct in figuring out my style with the 3 dresses I took in!
Later on, I was deciding between two dresses and she held a belt up to my waist to help visualize how it'd look with accessories. Incredibly impressed because we were told it was one of her first few prom dress weekends. (An additional note: despite living in TX, the associates made sure to write down my school just in case another student happened to order online; this was very much appreciated) Thank you again!

Fantastic experience shopping for my daughter's Senior Prom Dress. Paisley was awesome in listening to what my daughter had in mind and suggesting styles to try on. My daughter picked the perfect dress that she loved and it wasn't even what she walked in thinking she would like. Wide range of styles and definitely worth the 2.5 hr drive from Savannah, GA Highly highly recommend!
