    I have been wanting to come to Dirty Coast for some time. I live in the Metairie, and lately haven't found much reason to come in recently. But I made the decision to come on over and hit this and a few other businesses in the area. I purchased the Bernie shirt they had as a fundraiser for the local food banks, and even more recently a t-shirt for fundraising for the local area affected recently by the tornadoes. I finally made it in. There is no dedicated parking lot, but there is plenty of street parking nearby. The employee working when I came in was very friendly and helpful. I was able to get a few t-shirts and am very happy. I look forward to coming back in the future.

    From their website. Adorable, right?

    When I say there is no place like Nola, I mean it. There is no place like Nola. Dirty Coast is one of those locally owned places that will make you a believer in this very accurate fact. Excuse, I don't mean to be rude but I want a Big Freedia in my pocket. You already know. I am a New Orleanian WHEREVER I am. Yeah, I'm in that number. I do what I wanna and I listen to my city. Dirty Coast is the perfect souvenir shop for tourists. Stay away from those awful t-shirt shops in the Quarter yall! If you want real New Orleans go to Dirty Coast. The t-shirt designs are so us and authentic. I also love (with a capital L) their prints. I purchased a few of them for some very special people in my life just recently for gifts. The New Orleans Water Meter door mat is genius and I want one! They also have adorable kids gifts too. A sippy cup that says "My first go cup"? Yep, every baby in my family will have one. Do your kids ever wonder what the sleepy animals do at the Audubon Zoo? Well wonder no more, little ones. Dirty Coast has a adorable picture book that will answer dat. So go represent the 504 and get yourself to Dirty Coast. They ARE New Orleans.

    Koozies!

    My friend Jackie is a fan of Dirty Coast. She ownes a few of their t-shirts. It's a locally-themed t-shirts place that also carries koozies, greeting and holiday cards, ball caps, kids t-shirts and many other NOLA themes gifts items. I almost forgot about their mystery t-shirt in the tube they have to sell also. Keep in mind that these are not your regular local T-shirts, it's local-themed T-shirt with clever cool designs. I love their location because it's directly across the street of Whole food!

    Dirty Coast is definitely a place to get Nola style printed t-shirts. The store has a collection of popular stuff such as coozies and art pieces. They appear to stay busy as people were coming and going constantly. My favorite product that I saw was a toy crawfish pot with all of the accessories, absolutely adorable. I only gave 3 stars because the place is very small, making it hard to look around comfortably. Most people were in and out quickly but I like to browse. If I want a specific shirt in the future, I would come back here.

    The is the 3rd location for this local NOLA business. I love their shirts and the offered designs. Bought my first shirt from them to support the 2016 flood relief here in south LA and in checking out their website really liked the shirt designs and when I got an email telling me they'd opened a new store on Royal & Orleans I knew I'd have to check it out next time I was in NOLA... Took my kids to the Beignet Fest and with the crowds overwhelming decided we'd roll on to the Quarter and I could feed them kids and check out this new location... Had 1 person working the shop and she was friendly and helpful and got a kick out of the fact I was wearing a Dirty Coast shirt...did some browsing and picked up another shirt and a hat for myself...The daughter found one but they didn't have it in Xtra Small (must be nice to have that problem)...but the staff made a call to the main location to only find out they were all out of x-small in the design my daughter wanted...but they took my info and I'm confident I'll be hearing from them shortly so I can get that shirt my daughter was in love with... If you're in the Quarter or over in the Marigny or hanging out on Magazine stop in and check them out...Quality shirts, NOLA made!

    Mr Okra in my pocket!

    This store is everything a T-shirt shop needs to be! I'm a T-shirt junkie so I probably buy one of these every 2 or 3 months for different occasions like a Pels game, music festival, baby showers, or some lagniappe soft T just for the hellavit. All the designs are displayed easily for you to see what's in stock, and the clerk is always there to help you pull your size from the pile without messing everything up (my worst fear in such an organized shop). I think they also have a discounted discontinued pile that's not too shabby. I would say make sure to try on or check the sizes because for different types of shirts, they range and you're usually gonna rock one bigger than you normally do, IMO. I just recently discovered that their baby T's (no not the T-shirts you wore in the '90s, the ones for actual babies) are uber affordable, as are their baby bibs. The staff again was very helpful in talking baby sizes with me; a definite unchartered territory for me. I got a T and a washboard bib for a friend's shower feeling pretty swell about my uniquely New Orleans gift. There are also some fun little gifts by the counter, but I like that they stick to what they do best as a T-shirt shop...And there's always free stickers. Yeah, ya right! Parking is a little bit of a b, but (though not advocated/recommended) I can usually park pseudo-illegally, get in, and get out on a weekday if I check out the designs online and know what I'm running in for...or else you'll just buy up the whole store.

    Love that Dirty Coast can have some fun with their shirts! lol

    This is the cutest shop on Magazine Street! So many great gifts that represent New Orleans…read more I wasn't really in the market for anything, just browsing, but then I found a lovely Magnolia patterned dog collar - perfect for my beagador named MAGNOLIA! Then I found out from the shop attendant that the state flower of Louisiana is the Magnolia! What??? My boyfriend's mom was born & raised in NOLA and loved our dog. She has been gone for a year and half, so finding this out strangely makes me feel connected to her and that she is still around. :*) Anyway, the sweet shop guy asked me to tell him the story of how my dog and I found each other. I recounted the tale of how I found her at PAWS Chicago, where she came from originally (Oklahoma), that she had a brother named "Steel", how she saved me from a life of stress, and then our connection to NOLA. I always appreciate when someone can create a warm and fuzzy moment. So thank you, Shop Guy! The collar is high quality all around - material and construction. I have purchased MANY custom collars for my baby girl and this has been the best so far. It's worth the money because I know it will last for a long time. I will be checking out their website for Christmas gift ideas since we won't be back until next year!

If you are a…read moreproud native of the Gulf Coast, or just an enthusiastic visitor/transplant (or gift giver to someone who is), you will find something to love at NOLA Couture. Think of all the symbols of New Orleans and bayou culture and cuisine. Now imagine those artfully integrated into a subtle, tasteful geometric pattern that appears on high quality accessories for ladies, men, kids, and furry friends who want to keep a little NOLA with them always. NOLA Couture has developed custom fabrics and ribbons that show off your Gulf Coast pride in a classic preppy style that you can wear to office or church without coming off too wacky. Think ties, belts, key fobs, bags, scarves, pet collars & leashes, insulated tumblers, glassware, candles, and so on. The ties and scarves are 100% silk & wool. Patterns include: --red beans & rice --snoballs --poboys & hot sauce --gumbo --seafood --shrimp cocktail --beignets & cafe au lait --gators --redfish --Mardi Gras kings --Saints --Louisiana --sea turtles --pirates --2nd line --boats --mosquitos --fleur de lis --fleur de sea (with a fish, shrimp, oyster, and crawfish) --street cars --hurricanes --daiquiris --seahorses --oysters & pearls --pelicans --mallards --seersucker I could not resist coming home with a red beans & rice belt for myself, plus a few ties for the Cajun/Creole men in the family. I'll probably be heading back to the online store for more gifts for upcoming birthdays. Fans of LSU, Bama, Tulane, SMU (oddly), Florida and other southern colleges can find some neat things here, too. NOLA Couture even can do custom designs for you (your school, business logo, etc.), and shipping is free for orders over $65. Prices are not cheap (ranging from $10 for a laser etched glass to $95 for a loomed scarf), but the quality of the all the goods appears solid. If you are looking for $10 T-shirts about drinking on Bourbon, this isn't your shop, but then you knew that!

    As a bonified fashionista, let me tell you that men of style have at least one place to shop in…read morethis fashion wasteland we call New Orleans... and that place is Billy Reid. I'm frankly surprised he can stay open in this town... his cloths don't have any fleur-de-lis... there are no "craw daddies"... the inseams are longer than the waistbands... how do they find customers here? I'm spending the summer house sitting, and frankly I find the level of style in New Orleans appalling. I'm what they call a Cali-Yorker, and I'm used to a much higher level of sophistication. Having said that, I haven't actually bought anything at Billy Reid. Primarily because I'm a bit cash poor right now and I'm relegated to window shopping for the moment... but also because I am working a signature lewk these days that doesn't totally line up with the Billy Reid aesthetic. My lewks tend to come and go with the seasons... for fall it was all zip-up onesies in bold colors with a contrasting neckerchief. The summer has me mostly wearing short sleeve v-neck djellabas and nothing else. I need that breeze blowing! Anyway. YES TO BILLY REID!

I've enjoyed going to this store since its opening. I'm always greeted with a welcome as soon as I walk in the door, along with some wonderful tunes playing in the background. The front of the store is laid out to allow you to view clothes under the natural light from the windows. I appreciate this detail because colors can look COMPLETELY different outside than indoors. Take a few steps up and you'll see an elongated wooden table with complimented benches to display all their seasonal goodies (shirts, jeans, shoes, bow ties, etc). The back of the store houses a BEAUTIFUL bar/register (marble counter?) and a big ol' mirror that worth taking a minutes to observe. The entire store is covered in unique paintings and portraits as well as fresh floral arrangements . Take a look up while you're shopping to enjoy them. Side note....ask to check out the kitchen. Y'all have to love the butcher block and oven range! Amazing store and team! See y'all soon!

    Extra large shout out to Lauren assistant manager at this store…read more We lost our house and everything inside to the Eaton fire in LA County one week ago. Today is my first day functioning. I need to replace everything. Literally everything. I went online and asked if they had any emergency relief for fire victims. The company doesn't necessarily have something set up, but Lauren told me to pick out the items I needed and she would help as much as she could. Let me tell you something, she really did help a lot. One of the things that keeps me going and helps me hold my head up during this difficult time is when complete strangers can reach out and help you, in your hour of greatest need. Lauren is yet just one more example of somebody who has renewed my faith in humanity.

    This store location hasn't had a review here in a long time. My suggestion, order from UnTuckIt…read moreonline and bypass the store. The store manager, Hussein, knows nothing about customer service, wants to be put on a pedestal by his customers... customer should be grateful for all he does.

A patron of a premium product, premium brand, deserves appreciative customer servicing. Don't walk into this store expecting a high-end customer service experience. You will be disappointed.

    Our visit to Perlis (Uptown location) on April 10, 2026 left a really bad impression…read more My girlfriend and I, both locals, were shopping on Magazine Street for a dress for a summer wedding. We spotted one in the window that we loved, so we went upstairs to check it out. A clerk asked if we needed anything, and we happily said yes--we were looking for the dress in the window and just wanted to check the sizes and availability. Her response? "There are four dresses in the window," delivered in a pretty snarky tone, like we were clueless. It caught us off guard. We clarified that we meant the one with the floral pattern, and she immediately pointed us toward the sale section instead. At that point, I honestly wish we had just walked out. What made it worse was what happened next. While we kept browsing, two other women came upstairs, and the same clerk greeted them warmly and even offered them water. One said yes, and the clerk happily went to get it. The difference in how we were treated was hard to ignore. I've always liked Perlis and the quality of their clothing, so I'll still shop there--but only at the Covington location. I won't be returning to the Uptown store. Management should really address how customers are treated upstairs. Not everyone who can afford to shop there is going to walk in dressed up--some of us are in shorts, flip-flops, or workout clothes. That shouldn't affect the level of service. Pretty disappointing experience overall.
