Absolutely loved this place the second I went in there! The staff were super friendly and helpful with finding the right size bathing suit for me. They were also very patient and I appreciated that very much. I’m really insecure about my body and it’s often difficult to find things that flatter me but they were super understanding and were a huge help when finding a good material and pattern! It’s definitely a bit on the pricier side but if you saw how incredible these designs are you would understand. I ended up purchasing an orange, blue, pink and white 2 piece that fit like a glove and was super flattering. LOVE IT!! :))

New Orleans is now also cursed with this business. It is a an overpriced store of questionable quality with amazingly bad customer service. The owner Tara is very very pushy and operates on an antiquated "No Returns" policy usually reserved for shady used car lots. Despite the dress pattern smudging after a couple wearings, my GF was still ok with that purchase, however Tara also pushed 2 ridiculous pairs of glasses,.lipstick and a purse into the sale. Returning sunglasses that have never been worn, even if it is just for store credit would be the least a shop owner should do, but no. Instead, the owner fell back on "it's a store policy" even though it is her store and she made up the policy. I guess this is the kind of business practice that should be expected when you are not actually a shop keeper, but a failed cabaret singer.
Edit... You feel defensive because you know you are in the wrong. Thats why you have a policy not even Walmart agrees with. Making up stories about me shouting or getting even 10 feet from you is no help. Good luck on your New shop in N.O. ...it's not New Jersey.

The woman who owns this place is one of the rudest people I’ve ever encountered. I’m literally in there trying things on and she tells me they’re closing soon and I need to leave. The guy who was helping me says we’ll be quick. I try to hurry up and she’s outside my dressing room saying they don’t have time for this. I felt so awkward. Like why let me into the store, help me pick things out and set me up in a dressing room if you’re that pressed for time. I ended up walking out. A few hours later I walked by after eating dinner and the place was still open. To this day I have no idea what the hell happened and why I was pushed out of the store.

HORRIBLE: This is definitely a shady operation. Why are all sales final? I believe the dress I purchased was previously worn. It had some stains. When you call the store you are always forwarded to voicemail. If you leave a message, no one calls you back! The clothing is way overpriced. NEVER NEVER NEVER will I buy from them. Shame on you! You should at least have the decency to call your customers back. Well I guess they figure, all sales are final so that's it! No regard for customer satisfaction.!

Such a fabulous and unique clothing boutique! I would buy the whole store if I could. The owner was spectacular and very attentive. She helped me pick a few bathing suits. It was such a fun experience having her bring me her custom pieces she designed and her colleagues were very helpful too. I can’t wait to go back and buy some dresses next

i’ve never seen someone more visibly angry when a customer decides not to buy something as this owner was; it’s extremely off-putting. very odd coming from a business owner, who should know better. every single review of her acting like a petulant child is true. no one will return if you berate all your customers, both in person and online. which is sad because the other workers are great. but i bet it would be so stressful working for her, because the shopping experience here alone is stressful enough. try to actually take constructive criticism and learn from what EVERYONE is trying to tell you or you’ll run your business into the ground.

My mother had a medical episode in the store. The gentleman who was the owner of the store kindly helped her as the one sales associate threatened to call the police. Little does this woman know my mother has a condition where she could seize. To have a sale associate so unempathteic working for your business is disgraceful. It's unfortunate but we will never shop there ever again unless the employees are better managed.

Watched the owner from the boardwalk walk across storefronts and climb on a table which children were eating at. She sang something unintelligible about women and scolded them for belching in a workers face 10 feet away. These reviews of repeated behavior similar to this show you everything you need to know before purchasing from this shop and how unprofessional and horrible the customer service is.

I have always admired their style, and until this year, I never noticed menswear. But this year, they feature some nice menswear, and I was excited to check them out.Let’s just say I was more excited to be there than they were to see me.The ladies who worked there pretty much ignored me. Tried as I might, I was not able to get them to pay me any attention or answer my questions about sizing. But a gentleman came to my rescue. The changing rooms were full, so he said it was OK to try the shirt on and put on the swim trunk over my shorts. It was going well until he was called away while helping me.Then the owner decided to pay attention to me, and she did not approve. She started scolding me about not trying the clothes in a changing room. When I tried to explain, she raised her voice even higher, then mumbled something under her breath.Did I walk into a feud? Am I, not the type of customer they want in there? I can only say that they did not talk to the other customers like they talked to me.Their designs may be upbeat and welcoming, but not their staff unless you are somebody they deem worthy.

First found this retro boutique in 2019 at their original location; thrilled to find their current expanded location. A full service boutique with honest to goodness customer service, their couture offerings range from XS-3X and actually flatter every figure! The employees will help you in the fitting rooms with everything from bringing additional sizes and styles to zipping and adjusting accessories. High quality fabric and designs, this is classic fashion meant to last a lifetime. Thank you Tara for your brilliant designs and Thomas for your amazing service.

Cute clothes. Nothing is tagged so when you ask for a price it's all a bit over priced (compared to other vintage brands like PUG, Vixen, etc). Sales girls were nice but people behind the barrier (yeah place has a weird barrier) were very foul tempered when we went in. Sizing in UK sizes (that's fine, I order from WKD, Colectiff, etc frequently) and when I told them what size I was in UK sizing (I'm a costumer I get the size differences) I was spoken to as a child. Total shame. I would have spent money here but not with that horrible customer service.
