This review is long over due! I've purchased three dresses for myself (Graduation and two Christmas Parties) and one baptismal outfit for my godson. She came highly regarded through personal friends. She was alway very professional and sweet. I first purchased a dress from her when she had just opened back in 2016. I needed a dress for a company Christmas Party and as a new store she didn't have many dresses to choose from and because she was still building her inventory she offered to bring in a few dresses that I liked to try on. She brought in two dresses for me without requiring any sort of a deposit. One was a strapless red and black dress and the other a navy and red dress. I was able to try them both on without any commitment but ultimately chose the red and black dress. Because I was so happy with her service I made sure to recommend her to all my coworkers. My dress was a huge hit, my boyfriend and coworkers have since visited the boutique for their formal needs. They have all said that she was extremely professional and accommodating especially on short notice.
For my graduation dress I had been looking for months for a dress and found nothing to my liking. I ultimately came to her store again because I knew she had plenty of options. When I came in the second time I was warmly welcomed. I told her I only had a week to find a dress and she sat with me to find one. We looked through both her online catalog and her in store books. I fell in love with this beautiful white scallop/haltered top dress with a mesh insert and beautiful pink and red embroidered roses on the top. I had decided on that dress but it unfortunately was not available in the manufacturer we found it. I had chose another dress but that didn't stop her from continuing to look for the original dress I had loved. A day later she texted me telling me she found it and in my size with another manufacturer; I rushed into the store that same day to leave the deposit for the dress. By Friday she brought the dress and it was perfect! I truly appreciate all she has done for me and especially her patience as I am a very picky shopper.
I'm not sure what these other reviewers are referring to but Esme has a great selection and customer service! She deserves 5 STARS without a doubt. I will continue to purchase my Christmas Party and other dresses from her as I fully support small businesses. && if you're wondering she carries the exact same dresses as the Los Angeles alleys. Trust me! I used to be a frequent shopper in LA and would spend hours going store to store looking for the perfect dress. But now with Esme only 10 mins away I can save both money (parking, gas, etc.) and time (TRAFFIC!) as I don't have to drive all the way to LA. Thank you for everything Esme! I will for sure return for all my dress and suit needs. read more
