Staff were unfriendly. Showed up 1 hour before closing and I guess that means they no longer need to assist customers. Just wanted to try on a specific dress that wouldn't even take 30 minutes and they were full of attitude. Won't be back, don't recommend. Great customer service is important.

I went in search of a wedding dress and the short young lady would get annoyed when I'd asked for help. She got bothered everytime someone wanted to try a dress. She told me I was a size 12 when a 6 fit perfect. No help at all.

They have great options for all sizes, so many to choose from simple to elegant in all colors. The color coordination in store helped greatly!

I went to the store around 7pm and neither of the two girls up front were of any help. The whole 30 minutes i was there, they were just playing the music really loud and just chatting away at the register without being of any assistance. I had asked their names and it was Regina and Sienna. Such bad management and this seems like a regular thing to do for them. I only had assistance from a lady name Nethleen and she was really helpful while helping three other customers. This happened on 2/17/22. really hope they get more employees wanting to do their job instead of just talking with each other and not helping at all.

I went with my daughter to get a prom dress for my granddaughter. The selection, organized by color, is quite amazing. My granddaughter tried on at least 10 dresses. I enjoyed watching all the other young women modeling for their families. The many dressing rooms were very clean. We didn't need help nor was it offered. When a woman in the dressing room asked for help with a zipper, the attendant told her she had to follow a strict policy of not touching. We did see someone being helped outside of the dressing room. If I needed a prom, party or wedding related dress this would be my first stop!
