I recommend reading other negative reviews. Ours wasn't nearly as bad as some others. Earlier today (03/27/2026, around 4:30) my friend and I visited Dentelle. We were first met by a woman who politely greeted us from her seated position as she worked on attaching a corset piece to a hanger (this becomes only slightly relevant later). We proceeded to admire the selection, slowly making our way around the store and quietly commenting to each other here and there. Not long after, one of the owners--Paul, as I hear it--walked in, and rather than greet us, the first thing he did was treat my childhood friend like an idiot. It started benignly enough. At the time, she had been looking at a sheer purple top and told me how much she loved it. Paul commented that it "matches with the one* next to it". (*A purple bra in the same shade, of which there were no other matching pieces.) I looked over my shoulder at this, and after she politely and cheerfully agreed that she noticed that, he walked up behind her and added, "They're the same color". I could tell he was just trying to make a sale, but by that point I was already blown away by his audacity. I could tell my friend was, too, but she humored him and simply said that they were lovely together and she wished she could, but her bank account wouldn't be happy about it. In a way I can't possibly articulate through text, he asked her, "Well, what's stopping you?" She had basically just told him, but all the same she then plainly said that she couldn't afford both. He then took a few steps back and began quipping at her every minute or less that we were there, even after my wife joined us. The woman behind the desk spent this time pretending to look busy with the same single piece of lingerie. She was unfolding and refolding it, clipping and unclipping it to its hanger, until finally we drifted over to the shop's right hand wall and she pushed past us. (See, not very relevant, other than her complicity in the situation and generally giving a bad impression regarding customer service and work ethic, as well as the owners' values. They get paid how much to do this, but treat customers they deem "too poor" like garbage? Okay.) My friend made her way there first, and Paul laughed at her and told her that she didn't need to "even bother going over there" if she "couldn't even afford the other stuff. This is the really good stuff." I moved to join my friend, and we both looked, regardless. Annoyed, I began to tune him out, until my friend told him that her sugardaddy was in Vegas. He paused, then told her to call him right then. She declined, and we walked out. I'm really sanitizing this experience in my retelling, but it was outrageous that he, in no uncertain terms, made it VERY clear that my friend was not welcome. I was largely ignored, and I suspect that it was because of how I dressed, looked, and sounded. Needless to say, any interest in this shop is long gone. Steer clear if you value people who value others and their time--because all Paul seems to care for is how much money you can put into his bank account. To the owners, since I've seen a pattern in your replies: I am not interested in having our experience being refuted or gaslit. I am not even interested in insincere apologies, though I've seen nothing of the like so far to anyone else who has suffered similar treatment. Do not bother replying.

The man who works at this store was so rude to us and he sat on his little bench as he greeted us…read morewith extreme rudeness. He claimed every piece of the pajamas/lingerie is VERY EXPENSIVE and "specially curated by him and his wife" The whole experience was trying to gaslight you into the fact you are not worth it to him and if you want to prove your worth you need to buy his stupid pajamas. He claimed I cannot touch the "pieces" so roughly because they are special. I have been to plenty designer stores in which no one has ever greeted me with such rudeness. F THIS PLACE. Highly recommend to NEVER GO HERE

Sylvie (the owner) has extensive experience in bra fitting and can almost guess the correct size without even measuring. I have gone up and down in sizes and she always has a size that works for me. Sylvie is also very knowledgeable on the fit of her merchandise and has a knack for picking the perfect bras. One of the things I love most about this boutique is that there's a mix of every day and special occasion pieces so whether I'm shopping for a specific purpose or just for fun I'm always able to find something. No trip to Carmel is complete without a stop at Intima!

I thoroughly enjoyed shopping at Ms. Fabulous (and they have an online presence) for a different take on some of these staples (horizontal striped sweater) as well as a few things that are totally different. The prices are super competitive; I didn't feel like anything really soared over $70-100 as a single piece. The clothes feel better made than anything at Forever 21 or Charlotte Russe. And, the shopowner is LOVELY to talk to and was able to recommend other shops in Carmel's downtown that might pique my interest. She said that if people express favorite brands or styles, she tries to reach back out when she gets new items in stock. Amazing. I bought a few items from here, and I will probably try to go back any time I'm in Carmel.

At first sight, you think the unassuming house in the middle of the coastal town is just what it…read moreseems... a house. Walking in, you'd be surprised that simple magic is made here. Though I've never reviewed a photography studio, I'd like to give this studio and couple a shout out. I came here one evening for a boudoir photo session, and was expecting to find a bed. Something that I'm used to seeing during boudoir sessions. However, no bed was to be found. I was confused but also very curious as to why this was. I went to change into my first outfit and shyly walked out. I sat on a chair and the rest was history. Before the shoot: Laura spoke with me and told me what to expect. She laid out the plans to have a cabaret style shoot and to bring my best lingerie. She did have a few things in the studio, she said, but as a plus size model, I purchased a few things to make sure I would be comfortable and fit. When walking in the studio, I met with Mark, her husband and the editor of the photos. He was very kind and offered a lot of support for his wife. It was nice to see a great couple working together doing what they love. During the shoot: Laura was very helpful. She offered poses that would not only make me feel sexy, but also direction that would make my body look fantastic in the photos. Unfortunately, one do the poses that I loved doing didn't make the final cut - if only I looked great in that one. It was one of my favorite things. She had me balancing with one leg extended on a chair, "cabaret" style. She even put a laptop in front of me to see a small part of the movie to get me in the spirit. She offered music that was both comforting and fun, and the atmosphere was just.. beautiful. We worked very well and I felt my best working with her. It was wonderful. After the shoot: Laura and I agreed to a video chat where she shared my best images and I chose the ones that I wanted to edit. It was an easy process and it took only a few minutes. I was stunned to see how gorgeous they turned out. She offered a great variety to choose from and I was happy with my choices. The end result was a great experience and beautiful memorable photos. My husband was pleased and he loved the entire experience watching on the sides line and seeing the results. The only thing that I would recommend is a fan. It was quite hot under the lights, but aside from that - it was awesome! Thank you Laura for this experience and photography and Mark for your great editing skills!

I collect perfume and nicer bath products and I was the most excited to check this place out above all other places I had on my list. Betsy has everything from bath salts, soaps, bubble bath (which I got), lavender satchets, and much more. I've seen some reviews saying that the owner is unfriendly. I wouldn't say she came off particularly super warm but I wouldn't say that she was rude either during my visit. If I return to the Carmel area (likely since it's always been a favorite place with my family), I'd love to come back and try other products. The shop isn't that massive but has products both local and from further away (France). She put a ton of different products on me as samples and let me see what I liked. I went with a French branded bubble bath and a lavender oil. I haven't tried the bubble bath yet but the lavender oil is pretty. Perfect for relaxing right before bed.

As a result of their false accusations, I decided to purchase only a couple items and left the rest at the store. the next day I went back to store, on the day of the actual semiannual sale. I picked out a matching set of lingerie. I recognized the female behind the checkout counter, she was the same person that I encountered from the day before. She failed to include the matching underwear that came with the set that I specifically purchased. They were so unwelcoming in both visits to the store and their pattern of conduct basically felt like discrimination. I didn't notice this approach towards other patrons in the store when I was there.
