The owner is amazing! My daughter and I drove all the way from texas for a prom dress. As soon as I get there north carolina has the worst snowstorm in 20 years! So we were trapped and the mall and store was closed that saturday. On sunday the owner risked her own life and traveled on icy roads to open the store for my daughter to have the most beautiful prom dress of her life! The mall was closed no one was open. But she helped my daughter try on atleast 10 dresses and found the perfect one. she's an amazing human being! read more

This place is amazing! We had the pleasure of working with the owner, Ms Summer herself! She has everything from tank tops and Barbie dresses to jeans and ball gowns. My jaw was dropping every time I turned a corner. If you're 2-somthin then be ready to do somethin' because when I say they have something for everyone, it's true! I took a very picky teen to shop for a special event. She found the perfect dress and saw quite a few other things she liked. I can't wait to return and shop for myself. Ms Summer and the Juicy Body Goddess staff will get you right! So go shop, donate, and support. This lady will bring your self-esteem up a few notches in one visit and you'll look fabulous! read more

My daughter was called by the owner and was not given a choice of which pop-up to visit. In the Yelp response the owner mentions my daughter needing a dress for a gala. My daughter never asked for a gala dress. She wanted a gown with tulle for a photoshoot. She spoke on the phone with the owner and was not explained how things went during the consult. When we arrived at the store she talked to the owner and expressed concerns about the heat in the mall and about the style of dresses at the store. During this conversation my daughter, once again was not told how the consult is conducted. When my daughter approached me at the store, she was confused and a bit overwhelmed by her conversation with the owner. I walked over to the first person I saw, thinking she was a sales lady. I asked her if she could explain to us how the consult works because it was our first time and we weren't clear about it. First thing she said to me was, "First of all, she doesn't even want to be here!", pointing at my daughter. I thought for a second this poor lady was confused because she seemed upset at my daughter for telling her about her concerns regarding the dress styles at the store. My daughter approached and started tearing up. I looked at the lady and said, "Oh no, she's now crying. You need to be more sensitive to your customers". In the Yelp response the owner says I was screaming at her and getting on her face, but the only thing I did was challenge her customer service, without once raising my voice. I had my earbuds in because I was listening to Nat King Cole. Who can ever get angry while listening to such wonderful talent? The lady then looked down at me and said, "Who do you think you are?!", I was shocked and asked to speak to the manager. At this she bent down to my level, to speak down to me and continued to ask, "WHO do you think you are?" I'm 51 years old and 5 feet, I have never in my life have been spoken to in this manner. No one has ever gone out of their way to bend their knees to speak to me in a condescending form. At this point my daughter told me the lady I was speaking to was the owner. At the news I took two steps back and gasped!!! The owner treats customers like this? I was ready to leave and never look back but my daughter wanted to end the conversation with the owner. My daughter stepped in and asked me to let her handle the conversation. At her request I walked a few feet away to the counter where a sales lady was standing. I kept listening to Mr. Cole and made sure to enjoy everything I heard. I disconnected myself from the conversation my daughter was having with the owner. In the Yelp response the owner says I treated her employees as less than humans, but she's describing the way she treated my daughter and I, not the way I treated her. I told the salesperson I was sorry they had to work for such a difficult boss. She just shook her head "no". She looked very angry. It never occurred to me she was angry at me. Interesting enough, I was still in shocked at how the owner had reacted without any instigation. I think I was thinking the sales lady looked so angry because of the entire scene. I still don't know. I responded with, "She's not difficult to work with?", once again the lady shook her head "no" without opening her mouth to say anything. So I said, "Oh. Ok. I must be reading her wrong". She just looked at me. I raise chicks for therapy and emotional support so, I pulled a video of one of my latest chicks and showed it to her. At this point, I just wanted this lady to have a smile on her face. The baby chick video was welcomed by her. She smiled and said, "cute". Soon after that my daughter told me it was time to go. I later learned the owner had refused service; which is exactly what my daughter wanted at this point, because she wanted her $50 refund. The owner told her to email her so she could receive her refund. Which she sent a few days later. I wrote a quick review on Yelp warning people to be careful with this business and the owner responded to my review with nothing but lies. She mentions videos of the entire encounter where I allegedly scream at her but I wonder if such videos captured her yelling at me and bending over to talk down to me. In the Yelp response the owner also mentions calling security and us being kicked out of her store. We never saw security and we walked out of the store calmly. I even had a chance to walk with my daughter across the hallway to the Kona Ice stand. My daughter ended up finding a gorgeous dress on Amazon and had an incredible photoshoot. The value of the dress she bought was equal if not better than the dresses at the shop. It turns out we never needed to visit this shop anyways. read more

Well, I'm just curious... what part of what I said about your POLICIES were incorrect? Call me what you want, but where was the lie? Were the dresses out on display, with price tags, or try on options? I paid $700 for my daughter's dress from you, to her Private School prom. I can assure you that I didn't NEED a free dress. I bought her 2 dresses this year. No flex, just honesty. Try it, and be able to take constructive criticism. You have an opportunity to improve. read more

I can't say enough good things about Juicy Body Goddess! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and celebrated. The announcer when you walk in says "you gotta be two-something to do something." The selection of clothes is incredible, from formal wear to causal day out--finally, a store that truly caters to curvy women with style and confidence. I was looking for cocktail attire on the day of my visit. Every piece I tried on fit perfectly and made me feel absolutely beautiful. The quality is top-notch, and the designs are both trendy and comfortable. The staff went above and beyond to help me find outfits that flattered my body type. There is something for every price point. Juicy Body Goddess is now my go-to for all things fashion! Highly recommend! read more

This is the best plus size store I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. Summer and Cassidy make the experience even better. If they don't have it, or can't get it, you don't need it!!! This store has everything a plus size woman can ask for. It's definitely worth the visit. read more

I would also like to add that Summer does not participate in the Better Business Bureau. Summer whom I did not mention by name before in an attempt to be professional. Is the owner of Juicy Body Goddess. If you know about small business you know that the BBB is an organization that holds businesses and their customer service to a higher standard ensuring they maintain good public views. This is why she is responding to yelp reviews instead of actually resolving her problems. I have also since been contacted by other dissatisfied customer since my experience who were likewise bullied for stating the truth online. I'm happy to say my other experiences with small businesses have not been these terrible please don't let one bad apple ruin your opinion of small business. All that being said Summer I'm sorry that you cannot even acknowledge your own mistakes. I hope that one day when you look back on your experiences you can say you learned from them rather then regret all your decisions. read more

My daughter and I went in today for her prom dress. Summer and her staff made her feel like a queen. It's so different as a plus size woman to finally walk in to buy a dress and not be made to feel invisible or like you're less than a thin person. Very good experience and my baby is on cloud nine with her dress! read more

I love the store Cassie was the biggest help she made me feel comfortable with my own body and I love my black dress with Flowers

I ALWAYS recommend going into the store for the Juicy Body Goddess Experience! Cassie - is amazing! Go and you will understand - I look and feel like the Goddess every time! read more

The vibe was off with management. Her attitude was not the best. I started to just leave and not worry about my consultation fee. Thankfully she left and we ended up with Cassie. She was the best and my girl ended up with a beautiful prom dress. Kindness goes a long way so thank you Cassie. You made our experience well worth our 2 hour drive. read more

Please don't order here. It's a flip shop. She sells at higher price. I made the mistake of trusting this shop and none of the items were going to fit me. I paid for the item plus an exchange and now I'm without the money and item. And she means it! NO REFUNDS! Image reverse search the items on her website you will see what I mean. read more

I follow this business owner on YouTube and I didn't know she have an online shopping store.. so I researched the store online .. very pricey.. like the prices is like going to Torrid or Lane Bryant.. but most of the clothes she sells are really nice.. compared to Lane Bryant or Torrid.. I rather Fashion Nova.. because I'm plus size but like a Jr. Plus size ... I'm interested in buying her leggings for fupa control. I can get more clothes from FN, PRETTY LITTLE THINGS , Boohoo, Forever 21.. and get plus size clotheSSS for 100.00 because of the sales they constantly have.. but I also do know that full figure can't wear plus size clothing that only go up 3x or maybe 4x .. so they have to spend a nice bit.. so I can understand why the clothes are pricey.. plus size prom dresses.. if they start at 400.00 it's because of the fabric.. , the stretch, the expensive stones and gems and that's a lot of work in making those prom dresses or evening gowns.. to fit plus size teens and women comfortably. We're still living in a world where plus size women are not welcomed to shop at certain shops ON PURPOSE.. Now maybe her YouTube videos shows a great experience and honestly I don't see anybody else doing what's she doing especially when I was a teen.. there was no store for plus size teens in the 90's.. not even the 2000's.. all I wore was t shirts jeans and tennis shoes.. I never wore a dress .. I bought my stuff from Wal-Mart.. and like Little businesses that closed down that had a small plus size section. ‍‍‍.. now for the ladies who were threatened.. what did you say to the business owner .. there's two sides to every story most times.. now if threatened unprovoked.. then no its not cool.. especially if you are being an honest customer and you didn't have a great experience.. not cool.. there is room for growth.. I will say this .. as a black woman.. yes black people need to support our black business owners in everything.. in every spectrum.. no doubt.. the problem with that is.. I believe that black people try to do what other races try to do as far as entrepreneurship but in a black way. Big no no Okay update: and this is just based on the comments about the store and the online store ... I believe people who get into any kind of business.. really need to focus on thing at a time.. because if ordering at the shop online . Gets customers long waiting shipping and no refunds.. and becoming very unprofessional to new customers...then online should be a future thing if it can't be handled professionally.. because seeing this now I don't want to order at all.. but this is what I said before earlier... you as a black person cannot run a business in a black way.. what do I mean by that? Okay... I think that my own black people.. can get very unprofessional really quickly and that's not the way to handled things.. other races as well I'm focusing on my own people as far as becoming very successful in your business.. I believe that people who tend to get into their own business focus on MONEY entirely to much.. they want to venture and do an online store , plus their boutique, plus IG and YouTube and etc etc... which is fine.. that's no problem.. it brings in more money .. definitely that's the half part of being a business owner.. but in order to become successful.. everything from the shop to the online store overall have to be successful.. a good bit of comments and even towards a new customer just asking for an update on a order that was PAID FOR.. about you're backed up and orders canceled and no refunds be you might be upset. That's not professional.. I believe when money and business is involved you have to meet those expertise.. for each individual.. hire more people to run your online store .. that should make things more easy running.. find out a way to work on how to get those shipping items to run smoothly.. if you're expanding your business.. but business owners are not gonna do that.. because you have to pay the people and in order for things to run smoother tou have to come more out your pocket.... but that's not gonna happen because Ms. Summer.. you want all the money to come to you.. .. and if that continues in your online business .. that's not good.. now I know around the holidays FN and other online stores are no better. .. thing goes missing , shipping takes forever.. refunds happen.. but if you're not giving refunds.. that's stealing sis.. .. and that's why our own black businesses are not being supportive.. by people and our own people.. all I'm saying is.. once you grow , make changes, spend money to get money.. don't think about the mone money money.. think about how you can grow your business run it smoothly hire people to run your online store business.. or if you have that already.. find out what's going on with ladies not getting their items.. and no refunds is not being refunded.. you have to be equal opportunity customer service to every customer.. but hey.. ‍‍‍‍‍ read more

Although at first I loved this store and the energy it brings, I was HIGHLY disappointed by the customer service received after inquiring about an in store pick up order. After following up on the order 6 days after ordering, this seems to have upset the owner and without further option she cancelled my order. I have been a supporter of this store for a while but after this action I will shop elsewhere as this is not the customer service that is expected nor was my ask for an update so inconceivable that it dignified such a response or action read more

I had a 1:1 style consultation and had the BEST time! Cassidy found the cutest things for me to try, and showed me how to style them in the most flattering ways I never would have considered on my own. Left with the best looking outfits I've had in years. Highly recommend!!! read more

I traveled 100 miles just to shop here and it EXCEEDED expectations!!! Cassie was very attentive and instrumental in helping me orchestrate the perfect ensembles that made me feel comfortable and confident in my appearance. I am extremely grateful to Miss Summer Lucille for providing such spectacular clothing for Plus Size Gals!!! read more

Traveled from Richmond, Va to visit the store this weekend. The young woman working was so welcoming, warm and attentive. She even had me try on a dress that I wasn't sure about and, she was right! Added to my purchase! I love the confidence that this store gives plus size women and the selection of clothes to fit not only our needs but, our wants too. ABSOLUTELY LOVED MY EXPERIENCE!! read more

Placed an order, after 7 days called to find out if they had an ETA as I'm having surgery. Was told to email customer service, which I did. Inquired on my order and asked if I could pick it up in store. Got an email saying they had over 10,000 orders and my order would be shipped out when they got to it. Got another email, after that one, advising my order had been cancelled. She already had my payment, didn't even try to work with me. Happy business is going so well, but if she keeps cancelling paid orders she won't last long. Good afternoon, I am writing to inquire about my order that was placed last week on the 26th. If it is not shipping this weekend I can just come to the store and pick it up. I'd rather do that than wait another 5 days for shipping.I assumed that being right in SC I wouldn't have to wait 10 days for it to ship. Can you please advise the status of my order? Can I cancel and get a refund on it if I can't pick up in the store? Thank you! Good Afternoon - We had 10,000 orders last week. We pack as we receive. Orders can 7 to 10 business days. We have cancel and refund your order. Please allow 5 to 7 business days to see refund on your credit card. Summer Lucille read more

I have put on weight due to back problems and I am at my heaviest. Due to this my confidence has been at a low point. My hubby sent me here at the recommendation of my sister and niece to find "the dress" for Vegas! I did the 1on 1 consult with Summer and let me just say, I have never felt more beautiful except for my wedding day. it wasn't the clothing, although great, it was her and associates ( I believe Cassie was her name)! Now to the clothes- AMAZING! I went out of my comfort zone - but felt amazing and confident! Sorry but Lane Bryant has nothing on her!! i know why the front say Goddess! Because you leave feeling like a goddess! Then when I was indecisive, she gifted it to me and a beautiful follower of hers gifted me a dress I abs HAD to have! Best ex of my life and someday, I'll pay it forward! Can't wait to go back! read more

I truly wish I could give a million stars!! It was my mom's birthday weekend and Summer Lucille and Cassidy went far beyond any conceivable expectations. We got to the store shortly after 11am and went left are 5:45pm. In that time there was cake, laughter, tears, jaw drops,and heart stops. There was full makeup as well as hair and a photoshoot involved. There were balloons, flowers, cards banners..and yes lots and lots of clothes!!! The genuine love we felt from the both of them was amazing and I personally felt like we were just all family sitting around talking, joking and laughing. My mom walked in with her confidence at an all time low ( the actual reason for the trip) and left with an attitude about herself that I haven't seen in so very long!! All thanks to Summer and Cassidy!! We went to dinner afterwards and she just glowed and shined and most importantly smiled a dazzling smile that I haven't seen in what seems like forever. These women are so awesome for doing what they do and absolutely amazing at it!! I can't say enough about this experience, BUT I have to talk about these clothes!! The quality was outstanding!! The selection was absolutely beautiful!! Unfortunately I wasn't 2somthin 2 do somethin but don't think my tiny but didn't try on a few pieces and LOVED THEM!! Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you both so very much for EVERYTHING!!! read more

I wanted to love this shop because of their mission, but it's pretty bad. The post office messed up my order and when it was sent back and I contacted them on what to do; they were very short with me over email. So I called them again and they were incredibly unhelpful and short with me again. Never got the pants or a refund. Worst customer service ever, especially for a small bussiness. read more

I have purchased several items on-line and have loved all of it. Not only did my items arrive earlier than I expected, but everything fit great and looks amazing. My man's jaw has dropped on a few of the dresses I have purchased. (I love it when that happens). He's actually been asking me when I plan to order more -- I told him to wait until the Spring/Summer things start coming out. read more

Terrible customer service.. Definitely not a helping hand as they claim. Prom Dress for a high school child starting at $400..REALLY!

I was invited to come to this location from a friend who follows the owner on Instagram. IG for this is making the sales and hyping this place up! I Ended up getting this person a gift card and an item. Location is in a shared parking lots there's plenty of parking. The sales associate was not wearing a mask, but was very friendly and good at making sales. The store smelled of cigarettes. It was like someone smoked inside the store. We have two dressing rooms where you can try all clear the items if needed. They do not do any refunds or exchanges make sure you are okay with it before you buy! The clothing is not made to last. It may look good on the manikin and when you try it on, but after my friend washed it one time or wore items once the clothing was falling apart. Yikes. Because of the items range from $40-$200, but the quality doesn't equate to the cost. After one time out the skirt I got for my friend it was coming apart from the seams...I felt horrible however in purchasing cheap items of poor quality for someone. Hope the owner can make some changes like a better seamstress, cleaning the store or not allowing anyone to smoke in your business, etc. The idea and look is great, but there is always room for improvement to make things better and build. read more

I really wanted to support this business because it's hard to find good clothes in plus sizes and her online persona portrays herself as someone who cares about plus size women. She canceled an order after I inquired about it nearly a month after I ordered and paid for the item. She is incredibly defensive and will go the extra mile to prove she's right instead of earning the trust of customers. read more

IG definitely hypes this place up. The actual boutique is small and the customer service is definitely lacking. The only good thing about this boutique is that there are not a lot of each piece, so you don't have to worry about seeing a lot of people with the same outfit as you. read more

Do not shop here. She will send you the wrong stuff then have you send it back and refuse to refund and if you get upset she'll threaten you. I'm having to report her to the attorney general since she lied to the cc company and stated I received my items. Not worth the stress. read more

I placed an online order for pick up at the store thinking it will be easier and after 2 follow up emails and the owner decided to cancel it and refund it simply stating the had many orders instead of giving me an option . VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.. SUPORT SMALL BIZ SOMEONE SAID. :(. read more

I've been following this store on socials for a while but yesterday was my first time going in. I'm so glad i did because it was an awesome experience! I felt so comfortable and found 2 dresses that I absolutely love. The store manager (I didn't get her name) was super helpful and just overall a beauty spirit. As I was leaving she told me about a monthly Friday event at the store which really made my day because she said it's a great way to meet other likeminded women. There's no way she could have known but I am new to Charlotte and working from home in the middle of this pandemic has made it very hard to meet people so I really needed that message in that moment. The clothes were beautiful and stylish and they had something for everyone and every occasion. It can be a not so pleasant experience shopping in store as a plus size woman but everything about Juicy Body Goddess puts you in the mind frame to be comfortable in your own skin. Definitely recommend! read more

If i could give this company a 0 i would. I ordered a package from them and got no kind of confirmation from the company that my order was placed (just from PayPal) i contacted the company thought the email on their website, after getting no response from them i posted a comment on their Instagram page (since they post something every few hours) requesting for them to check their emails as much as the post on social media. I then got a private message because i was a brand new customer the owner had the audacity to get mad at me for posting to get a update. Then i was told my order was cancelled and then when i went to contact the seller due to the time frame passing and no refund i was blocked on their social media account (where i originally found the company) don't waste your time with this business. The owner had no respect for people. read more

I want to start this review by first stating that it is not my intent to bash a small black owned business, I can only hope this review reaches the appropriate audience so that corrections can be made for future patrons of this store. I found JuicyBodyGoddess on tiktok, I was in awe of Ms.Summer's attentiveness to her clients as well as uplifting throughout style consultations. I decided as a plus size woman that I wanted to experience this too. I drove 6 1/2 hours both ways from Florida to Charlotte, NC to have a consultation with Ms.Summer. My experience was anything but pleasant, I think I've received better customer service from a street vendor. Upon walking in the store Cassie was at the front register taking a call, afterwards she greeted us and I let her know I was there for a scheduled 12pm consultation with Ms.Summer. She informed me she was not in yet but she would call her; she then stated that she would be arriving shortly and would start helping me until Ms.Summer got there. Cassie came off as not very enthusiastic about helping me once I let her know some of the items she was picking were not things I liked personally for my particular event. I tried on several things but the selection was slim and Cassie informed me if there was something I liked I could always order it in another color and they'd ship it to me. Around 12:30pm I had still not seen Ms.Summer, but I did hear ruffling in the back. I came out to show Cassie another outfit in which she was upfront tending to other customers (understandable because my consultation was supposed to be with Summer). Summer then came from the back and appeared to be cleaning and disinfecting I spoke to her first which I found weird, she only said "Hello, how are you? And that she did not think the outfit I had on looked good" And continued with what she was doing. I then decided that I no longer wanted to patronize this store as the person I had a scheduled appointment with half way greeted me and never apologized for her tardiness or jumped in to help find something. Upon coming out of the dressing room I informed Cassie that I did not like anything (I did like one dress, but decided not to patronize) and she said let me grab Ms.Summer and see if she can help. Summer walks past us tells Cassie she'll show her something (later figured out it was how to give a $50 store credit which is included with the consultation) to which Cassie states "I know how to do that I'm not working with them anymore". I grabbed my store credit, and told them to have a good day. I do not even want to use the store credit because I'm so disappointed in my experience, I drove a long way, paid money to have a consultation just to experience something so disheartening. Like I said previously I can only hope they use this review as a learning curve. read more

Just go there. The experience in the store was really awesome! The staff was very attentive to helping out and super down to earth. The atmosphere was so amazing to experience. So often we go to stores now a days, and staff don't care or help. This was such a breath of fresh air. They had so much to try and a variety of styles to fit any plus size babe. One section was giving me fashion nova vibes, then another camilla cabello dreams, and another cottage core fairy tale realness and yess gurl they got faux leather and faux latex fantasy. Other things that really peaked my interest was the handbags, plus size hosiery and fishnets, and sun glasses. They also had rhinestones heels here and there but I'm not sure if they're for sale or decor only. The owner mentioned thinking of selling these lovely feminine candle figurines that were decoration only and I really hope they decide to green light it. Over all, just go, check it out, for yourself. I have no clue how the website is but in-store experience is 10/10 read more
