This little store is fantastic! I really feel like Madison lacks good shopping and fashion, but…read morethis store is such a gem. We need more of them! It's very cozy, and the staff is attentive and helpful. The styles are fashionable, but not too trendy, which is great to keep wearing for a few years. That's important because the price tag on some of the items are a little high. Honestly, the price is the only thing that is keeping me from giving it 5 stars. Some of the leggings were over $60, and some tops were well over $80. The return policy is a little strict too (they don't offer refunds, just store credit). But, the clothes are cute and we so desperately need that here!

Ordered my first dress from a different Von Maur but it was never delivered due to an error putting…read morein my address. I was then sent a new dress from this location. It delivered a day before my event and it ended up being the wrong color, despite the worker confirming the color with me before. I didn't have time to get a new dress, so I had to wear a color that did not match with my boyfriend's tux. I called to complain about my issues and they refused to give me any kind of compensation or offer a partial refund for all the issues on their end unless I came to Madison to return the dress, when I live in Milwaukee. Very disappointed in my Von Maur experience. Update 7/21: Von Maur offered to send me a new dress at no extra cost in the correct color! I appreciate customer service taking the time to fix the issue.

Nordstrom Rack is a great place to go and find what the store Nordstrom offers but at semi…read morediscounted prices. I think it's important to note that when you go in here, you're not gonna find really cheap prices. The prices are still up there. They're just a little bit less than you will find in the actually Nordstrom store and/or Nordstrom online. For me, the main reason I like Nordstrom Rack is their selection of shoes. They have a really big selection of shoes, particularly tennis shoes. They truly have a large amount of all of the name brands. And again, at semi discounted price prices. They're not cheap, but they are below what you would have to pay at the regular Nordstrom stores or most other sporting goods retailers. In terms of clothing, they have a lot of it. They have both a large selection of men and women's clothing. It's truly a vast amount. I don't usually find clothes that catch my eye at this store, but my wife always seems to find something. So, that may let you know of the mindset of the people who shop here. For men, they have a nice selection of suits, sport coats, slacks, and dress shirts. But, they're not exceptionally good deals. Personally, I prefer to go into a shop that is more devoted to those things when I buy such items. For my wife, however, she commonly finds nice dresses, tops, and also, shoes. She too, is a big fan of their shoe department. The one thing I will say is that if you want to get a nice pair of Doc Martens, this is a great place to buy them. They seem to discount Doc Martin's more than they do their other name brand shoes. This is just something to think about. Overall, if you want some high-end clothing, and/or shoes, and/or jewelry, and/or a little bit of anything else that Norstrom offers, this is a good place to purchase it.

It's a good store with the potential for some really good finds, but they do make you feel a bit…read morelike you're a criminal in there. I went to the dressing room and the attendant asking me how many items I had, I told them, and they stopped and made me let them count and leave the pack of socks I was carrying on the counter. Someone else took the socks while I was in the room. Next, I wanted some cologne. Took awhile to find someone to open the lock box where they keep it, and they looked at me like I wasn't making sense when I asked for cologne. When I tried to carry it up to go check out, they snatched it out of my hand and carried it straight to the register. Just a bit odd to treat paying customers like they're expecting you to rob them. It will probably make me stick to ordering from the online store in the future.

This used to be my favorite shop in the Madison area. They used to carry an extensive selection of…read moreunique and high-end home-wares brands (McKenzie Childs, Juliska, Lilly Pulitzer, etc.) as well as beautiful baby and children items that you don't often see outside of larger city centers. It was nice to have such a beautiful shop right here in Middleton - it was very well done. However, about a year ago, they cut their selection drastically when they downsized into a smaller space. Now you must special order if you want pieces from brands like Juliska, I don't even think they still carry the other brands. I don't recall there still being children's items. Store is small and mostly just women's clothing now. I used to visit/purchase multiple times per year; however, there isn't much reason to stop anymore.

She didn't care about my money or my feelings. She knew she made a mistake in handling a return and didn't bother to fix it and when I noticed, (thank goodness I did!) and asked to have it fixed she was extremely unpleasant and flippant about it. When you spend that kind of money on clothes, you sure don't expect to be treated worse than a low grade department store, but that's exactly the vibe you get from the staff.

Today I was checking out, ask if they could honor the sale starting Monday, "no way". I was told due to COVID "their inventory is not as deep so they cannot do this". I am standing there waiting to spend money at Talbots in the Madison's store, they apparently don't want it. I can tell you every single time I have been in the Rockford IL store at Cherryvale Mall they always would honor an upcoming sale. Madison's store are holding my order until Monday, a 40 mile drive for me. I told them I will order them online if they have my sizes and would let them know. So they knew I was going home to order them online. They did not offer to ship them or order them for me, etc. I can think of all sorts of customer help they could of offered. I came home without anything, put all my exact items in my shopping bag Talbot's online. Monday, yep, will hit enter. They lost a big purchase in Madison today. I would think with COVID they would want to keep their in store customers happy.
