Where do I even begin with BB Couture? This place is a disaster from start to finish. I was lured in by their pretty dresses, but what I got was a nightmare. Blair, the owner, is not just unhelpful; she's downright rude and dismissive. It's clear that she has no respect or care for her customers. My order was delayed for weeks, and never received the dress. Then Blair the owner ghosted Ruined my daughters sweet 16 I've never encountered such blatant disregard for customers. If you're thinking about shopping here, do yourself a favor and run the other way. BB Couture is a prime example of how not to run a business, and I can't believe they're still in operation. Save your money and sanity for a boutique that actually values its customers! read more

I have been attempting to contact this location for over two weeks, leaving multiple messages without receiving a response since I was in the area and their website indicated that they were open. I visited in person however, upon arrival, I noticed that the elevator service only the first floor and no one responding to the bell in the lobby, however shortly after leaving I receive the text message that an appointment is required, which was an unexpected given the fact that I have been calling and leaving multiple messages along with my callback number and purpose of my visit. I am disappointed with the experience and would have appreciated the opportunity to view the collection as a result I will be exploring the other options. Best of luck BB Couture, I hope future clients have a better experience read more

Fun beautiful items! Welcoming service as well. While I didn't buy anything it's only because I didn't have time to shop as long as I would've liked to! I'll be back! read more

I LOVE BLAIR and his amazing store! I bought a couple of gowns here for a special event recently and I could not be happier with the results. Blair was so fun during the fitting and even recommended a great alterations specialist. They have a wide selection for all tastes and sizes. Highly recommend coming here if you want to feel gorgeous for your next special occasion! read more

Let's start by saying the owner and his mom, make to feel like family. I've brought a formal gown in years, I was totally clueless about where to start. This place is by appointment only, which means you get the attention of the owner. The dressing rooms are big, clean, and fun. Weddings, balls, birthdays, PROMS! What I did notice was the large selection of plus-size dresses available. Bravo. read more

I flew to NYC for B&B Couture! (They saved my pageant!!!) I went to B&B Couture with a last-minute SOS for a Miss USA state pageant gown, and let me tell you, they came through like superheroes! I decided to change my gown last minute and reached out to Blair. he sent me photos of options and I flew to NYC. The boutique has an AMAZING selection even for a super last-minute situation. I felt so confident and beautiful on stage and I'm so thankful to Blair and the whole B&B Couture team for their help. Thanks again B&B Couture!!! P.s. You have to make an appointment for the boutique. The boutique is located in a multi-business building. Once you get there you have to take the elevator to the 5th floor, which is the boutique. read more

B&B Couture - The Sherri Hill gown from B&B Couture - Women's Clothing Near Me - New York, New York

Had a good experience a few yrs ago so went back, but this time was different. Dresses were plentiful and fancy, sales person was attentive. The difference was, I felt uncomfortable with a policy requiring me to buy off the rack when those dresses were floor samples, and many were unwearable (ripped, makeup stained and most importantly not my size/style). Went there specifically to order direct from designer via this retailer, young lady said they could not although I emailed in advance with this request and style. Hopefully they change back to previous policy as designer listed this shop as one to buy and order from. read more

I went a few days before Thanksgiving to look for a red wedding dress, which is REALLY hard to find one that's spectacular since red dresses aren't typically for weddings. I'd been to a dozen stores, including other couture boutiques in NYC and I couldn't find a dress that matched the bright red color I wanted (per Chinese tradition) that was spectacular enough and came with a trail. I walked in without an appointment (appointments are recommended, luckily I happened to be the only one there at that time) and Eva, I believe her name was, showed me all options of bright red dresses in my size. She helped me clamp each dress to show me how the dress would fit once altered. I didn't believe I'd want a mermaid dress but I was proven wrong! And my dress happened to be on sale (slight damage on beads and zipper, but nothing my local tailor couldn't fix). Thank you Eva for everything! read more

I absolutely love this boutique! The vibe is so New York! We stumbled into this place after a google search on our recent trip to New York. My future sister wanted to look for prom dresses on the whim and we found ourselves in this FABULOUS store! Buyer beware, it's a workout to get to this space! You have to climb up 3 flights of stairs. That is not a big deal though, just thought I would share as a heads up. They have dresses to fit everyone's taste. Whether you want a classic, trendy, bold, or Beyoncé inspired dresses, they have it. My future sister enjoyed trying on all the dresses. It was as if she was in a romantic movie makeover montage scene. The space is cute, totally Instagramable, and all the employees were helpful and friendly! Thank you B&B Boutique you made prom dress shopping effortless! read more

STAY AWAY unless you want the risk of being yelled and cursed at. The short of it: my almost 70 year old mother and I were called "nasty ass people" and told to "get the fuck out" after a bad experience at the store. In what world is that appropriate behavior to speak to any human being? Horrified at the vulgarity and lack of class of the management here, especially with a senior citizen. The long of it: I made an appointment here to look for a wedding reception dress (which I told the manager is what I was looking for when making an appointment the day before). Their website shows that most dresses come in a variety of colors and sizes so I figured I'd be able to try on a few dresses even if they didn't have the exact color and size I needed and they could order the size/color I needed. When I got there I was told no, they weren't willing to put in any orders since it was prom season and I was limited to what was available off the rack. Off the rack they only had 1 white dress in my size. When I pointed this out to the girl helping me I got a shrug in response so I asked to speak to the manager to see if he'd be willing to make an exception regarding ordering given he knew I was coming in to look for reception dresses and I'd just spoken to him the day before. When he came to speak to me he had a couldn't care less attitude, kept cutting me off when I tried to speak and explain why I was upset at the situation , and when I tried to say that they had an extremely limited selection of white dresses in my size (1 dress) and ask why he didn't tell me this when I scheduled my appointment with him, was when he once again cut me off, said I insulted his store, and that I was a nasty ass person (or rather called me and my almost 70 year old mother nasty ass people) and told us to get the fuck out. read more

BB Couture always has the most stunning dresses and the widest selection of designers. Blair and his staff always know exactly what to pull out for the occasion. It is like having a personal stylist. read more

I must say that while the store has a great selection and is set up with loads of mirrors it was Besa that made the experience! Stores depend on sales but it really felt like Besa just wanted my daughter to be happy and feel beautiful. We were in NYC from Seattle to buy a prom dress. And yes, with Besa's help we found one!! Make this store a must when in NYC!! read more

We were in NYC for the weekend and prom dress shopping. After an unpleasant experience at another dress shop I googled and found B&B. I called to see if they could fit us in without an appointment and Blair was so welcoming and accommodating. We showed up with 2 teen girls and left with 2 ecstatic prom dress buyers. It was like they were happy we were there and wanted the girls to be excited. We have 2 incredible dresses and one great experience!! Thank you read more

This store is NYCs hidden gem!! They have such an amazing selection of special occasion dresses and they have something for everyone's style and budget. From simplistic to "wow" one of a kind. The staff is amazing and it is owned and operated by a professional stylist so you are sure to get the proper guidance. Do yourself a favor and skip the department stores and head right to B&B Couture. Saks and Neimans have nothing on this place. read more

B&B Couture - At B&B couture! - Women's Clothing Near Me - New York, New York

Hi, I wanted to make management aware of an issue I had on Saturday at your shop. To start off, I am a 5'6" 120 pound girl. I walked into your shop and approached a sales person (tall black man, wearing a tan suede hat), and asked if I could try on some dresses for an upcoming wedding. Immediately he said "UMMMM 6-8 RIGHT?" I was confused and said excuse me? and he said your size, you're a 6-8? and I said um no. i'm typically a 2-4. then your employee had the audacity to reach out, invade my personal space, push my coat back/open so he could accurately see my waist and said "no honey, you're a 6-8" OK - I'm already extremely uncomfortable and feeling insecure and targeted. Then he started pulling dresses and I found the dress I wanted and asked if he could take it down so that I could see it and she said 'um sweetie, thats a 0' and i said ok, I want to see it. and he said umm... it wont fit you. and i said OK, I still want to see it. and he said "ok I can let you hold it but really really cannot let you try it on because I can't risk you STRETCHING IT OUT" excuse me? i've been in many bridal shops. if a dress doesn't hit, you don't zip it. you can still get an idea of how it looks. Again, I typically wear 2s, so its not THAT small. never in my whole life have i felt so targeted and so FAT than in the presence of this man. You simply CANNOT speak to people in this tone. how dare he?! there are so many better ways to speak to people especially as a sales person. I immediately walked out. For next steps, I hope to hear from someone to discuss the issue. I also assume you do not want to be responsible for my therapy bills that will come as a result of this interaction, so I encourage you to train your employees so they do not speak to ANY woman in this tone every again. Stores like yours should lift people up and make them feel beautiful but from the moment I stepped in yours, I felt fat, ugly and targeted. I will take this down if and when I hear from the shop on how they plan to right this wrong. read more

Had an absolutely great experience at B&B Couture! We had gone to a few other stores and always left disappointed. We found this place unexpectedly and it was amazing. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable and they were key in finding the perfect dress! The variety is diverse and current. The prices are fair and have great range. My only negative thing to say about it was make sure you are aware that if you get a plastic garment bag ( similar to what is given complimentary in most stores) they will add $25. I would have taken just a regular bag since we still neeed alterations and the dress needs to be steam cleaned. But, overall it was a good experience. read more

This shop is totally ridiculous with its restriction of people under 21 has to be accompanied by a guardian. This is called age discrimination. You don't see toy stores not allowing children to go into the store without their parents. The staff is cold and unwelcoming too. The customers in the store were nicer than the staff. read more

Beautiful selection of dresses. Eva and Bessa are extremely helpful, friendly and not pushy. I love their honesty, they aim to make you happy and gave me their honest opinion. They rather be honest and make you happy than to just make a sale. read more

I've spent a lot of time (and money) shopping for gowns both online and in-store at gown shops and high-end department stores all over the country. I can say definitively that B&B has, hands down, the best and most diverse selection of designers I've seen in over a decade of searching for "the perfect gown" every few months. Sure, they carry the tried and true staples for prom, pageant, wedding party/guest (your Sherri Hill, Jovani, Terani, etc.), but what I love most is how the owners go above and beyond to find the best, sometimes even obscure, designers from around the world to complement the very popular Amerocan brands they already carry. You know those unreal-glamorous dream gowns that keep popping up in your Instagram explore feed that you absolutely MUST have, only for you to discover they're by a designer selling out of a tiny showroom on the other side of the planet? So you screenshot the post and follow the account just in case you happen to end up in Kosovo or Albania or Istanbul sometime in the near future and you decide to stop by to treat yourself to something nice, right? Well, B&B has those designers, and are often their sole US distributor, so when I say the selection is like nowhere else, I mean that! Beyond the killer gowns, Blair and Bessa both have great eyes for design and know how to dress a woman in what works best for her body. Plus, they're both just total dolls! I can't recommend this team and their amazing store enough! read more

Such a true hidden gem in NYC for all this glam and elegant! Blair has such a keen eye for style and loved the whole shopping experience there. So attentive and provided great top notch experience. My go to spot now for all my dress needs! Thank you!!! read more

I've been going to B&B Couture for three years now. Years ago, I was desperate to find a one-of-a-kind dress and a stylist in New York told me the one place I had to go. We are from Washington DC but once we discovered B&B Couture, every time we need a special occasion dress, we now travel to Chelsea (NYC). We found the perfect Bat Mitzvah dress for my daughter here when she was 13. We've been fortunate enough to work with the owner Blair or his cousin Bessa. We call ahead, tell them what we are looking for and then arrive and just follow their lead. They always know what will look good on Lexy, they know what's trendy, they know what to wear if you want to stand out or just look beautiful and blend in. It's a beautiful boutique with the most gorgeous gowns. But what's absolutely irreplaceable is the experience they have in this industry and the incredible customer service. They really care about how you look, they want to see pictures and hear about the event. I couldn't recommend them more. read more

I'm almost hesitant to write this review to let the word out on this place. I found this boutique over 2 years ago when I was in desperate need of a formal gown for a dress in 2 weeks. The owner, Blair, stayed opened an hour after closing, determined to find me a dress. I left with the most beautiful and comfortable green gown. To date, still my favorite. Having such a great experience, I now go no where else for any dresses, semi-formal or formal. I feel like I have a personal stylist. Blair makes me try on dresses I never would look twice at on the rack. Somehow I always end up loving his recommendations! I literally just tell him the event and pulls dresses he knows will look good on my body- I'm 5' and a size 12 so it's not easy. In fact, before finding this shop I always hating dress shopping. All I can say is Blair is a master of his art and runs a terrific shop, with an impecible eye for fashion. read more

What can I say about this place....if you are looking for a fabulous look for your event, this is the place to get the most amazing piece! And I say piece bc every single dress in B&B is a piece of art! They have the most amazing collection of dresses whether your going to a bridal shower or the Oscars! They can also special order anything for you! Plus the customer service is impeccable! Top notch all the way. You will definitely feel like a VIP! My 3 sisters and I all got our dresses for a wedding here and my mom ended up getting one as well! We looked phenomenal thanks to Blair and the staff at B&B! We will for sure be back for our next event to be styled! read more

This will be the store that I go to from now on. I reached out to Blair the co-owner via instagram asking for a dress that I saw on his page. He called me immediately and we spoke about my sizing. He knew exactly what he was talking about, her recommended the size that he though would fit. He shipped it and in two days my dress was at my door. The dress fit like a glove. I love this store and the people that work there. From now on this will be my go to store. Thank you Blair for all of your help! You are the best! read more

This store has become my go to for all things dress related! They handled everything for our dresses amid a pandemic--with such grace and professionalism! I have recommended a majority of my family and friends to B&B. From our first phone call to set up an appointment it's been great ever since. We walked in as patrons and left as family. The fashion advice, styling tips, and laughs are definitely the added bonus!! read more

I first fell in love with b&b couture while being styled by Blair for a photo shoot with Fadil Berisha. Each gown Blair pulled was more beautiful then the next and it was a dream come true for my photo shoot. I had never seen such stylish, and trendy yet classic dresses. With my upcoming Miss California USA pageant and being in NYC over Christmas, B&B couture was a perfect place to shop. I found the most amazing emerald gown that made me feel confident, elegant ready for the Miss USA stage. Shopping for the gown was such a fun experience I'll never forget. Eva, helped me choose my dress, taking photos and videos so I could show my friends and decide between all the amazing gowns. She even took time to text me after and make sure I was happy. I am so grateful for Blair and the other staff at b&b couture who made my purchase easy to handle and even shipped my gown across the country to LA, California. I am still dreaming about a few more pieces at B&B couture and can't wait to shop for next years event. Definitely recommend visiting if in NYC and if not reaching out to them as they were very diligent, honest, and helpful throughout the process of choosing a memorable look for my special day. read more

I just happen to come across this place one day while I was walking on the streets. I looked up and saw an amazing dress in the window. I was on the hunt for a dress for my mother for a gathering we were having with the family. I went inside and met the most incredible and very handsome man. His name was Blair. I told him that I wasn't looking to buy anything at the very moment because I don't have my mother with me. He said walk around look and see if you find anything. He was unbelievably kind to me his staff was amazing and very helpful. We started talking about fashion and the beauty industry. because I was an owner of a hair salon. We collaborated on hair and evening gowns for an event that I was hosting. Blair gave me an unbelievable price for the dresses. I ended up coming back with my mother. My mother fell in love with almost every single dress. She always tells me that she feels like a queen when she arrives at this boutique. Blair and all of his staff are the most genuine people I have ever came across in a Dress boutique. Their dresses are out of this world. From short to long to long, sleeves to no sleeves, to tea length dresses, simple looks too extravagant red carpet evening gowns Blair has it all!! (But for real) Every time I come in which is quite often because I have a lot of events I bring a client,a friend, or a family member. We are in this boutique for hours trying on numerous of different dresses. I have never had an experience where they allow me to try on as many dresses as I needed just to find just the right one. Most people start getting annoyed if you try on more than three or four dresses because they feel like they're not making the sale. This boutique does not care about that. They truly care about their clientele looking and feeling stunning. Because of their generosity and they're fabulous dresses I have purchased many. I will definitely be coming back to this location anytime I need a fresh look. They're always up-to-date they have every size possible. Check out their Instagram! Always new arrivals! They have from the double zero all the way to a size 26. This is a no judgment dress shop. Blair carries many different designers in this shop and because of the versatility in dresses you need to go there just to look fabulous. Do not worry about the size because some designers run very small and some designers run very large. My mother is a size 8! And honey..... my mom was trying on dresses from a 2-12! It's about the designer and the make of the dress.It's not about the number on your tag it's about how amazing these dresses make you look on your body.believe me when I say it's all about the dress not the number! I will be back over and over again! Thank you so much Blair and to his amazing team!! Can't wait until my next event. read more
