Years ago, I had the opportunity to meet Contessa Helena, She welcomed me with a Gracious Spirit. Her perfume is BEYOND AMAZING! As a former flight attendant, I received many compliments. Her clothing, " one of a kind"! Out of my price range, but her perfume is definitely "ONE OF A KIND "!

I have been a customer since the mid 90s. Contessa has had me wearing fashion forward items with brands from Europe an South America long before they became mainstream. She knows her customers body types and actively recommends things that will compliment what you already own. It's not for the cheapest deals, but she has some really good sales too. I'd come to her for the unique names and if you are looking to establish an ongoing relationship where she gets to know you. She will look out for you when your favorite styles go on sale. If you work, You will find suits that are rarely found elsewhere. A "Contessa woman" is about confidence. She is usually self made, prides herself on her own unique perspective and love to travel. Some of the women I've met there have been diverse in personality style and come from everywhere to show (Athens to San Diego!). We laugh, celebrate each other and share stories. I like owning things that are unique and almost always get compliments on my clothes. It's a fun experience and even if you don't buy - it's always worth looking.

Love the place. Got a beautiful pair of shoes there today. The manager, Christopher, saw us window shopping one day and he was so engaging that we came back a few days later before leaving Chicago when we had more time to shop. He is quite passionate about the clothing and very knowledgable about the house perfumes and such. I will certainly go back the next time I visit. If I could change one thing, I wish they didn't carry so many furs, that's my only reason for not giving 5 stars.
