    Short dresses.
    Jennifer J.

    I have walked past Gown & Glove probably six zillion times since it opened on Cornwall Ave, most often while on my way to get breakfast at Arlis's next door. Finally, I had the occasion (literally) to stop in when my daughter needed a prom dress. I was super impressed with their collection of fancy gowns in every shape, color, and size. There were super formal options, as well as less formal dresses too. In the front of the store are two racks with shorter gowns, and in the back are racks and racks of longer gowns. The owner, Blanca, was really helpful in showing us how to navigate the store, even though she was simultaneously doing a bridal gown fitting while throngs of moms/teens circled the store looking for prom attire. The store was scheduled to close for the day when we were there, but being the savvy biz owner that she is Blanca stayed open with a smile on her face and we never felt rushed to finish our shopping. While my daughter ultimately didn't find her perfect dress here, I can safely say this will be our number one stop for future formal shopping. Oh, and they've got shoes, accessories, and wedding decor too! Not to mention in-house alterations. This is definitely a one-stop shop for all things fancy-pants in downtown Bham.

    My wedding dress- bought and completely tailored by Gown and Glove's owner Blanca.

    When I got engaged, I went to Gown and Glove to "just look" at dresses. I had an idea of what I wanted and was not finding that on my own after trying about 20 dresses. The owner, Blanca, stepped in to help me. She put me in a dress 5 sizes too big and I was perplexed, until she tightened it up around me and shortened the gown (I wanted a short skirt) and my jaw dropped. She transformed what felt like a blanket on me into THE dress. It was magical. What really made it perfect was Blanca tailored the dress herself- so from start to finish she saw me through with this dress. She saw what it could become and she made it that way. It was really special to me. I loved that we could take a maybe worn once dress and make it mine. Blanca had me come in for 3 fittings- after the 3rd it was perfect. She also helped me find a sweet little belt that worked with the dress flawlessly. If you're in the market for a wedding dress (or prom dress, formal dress, dress to wear to someone else's wedding, etc) check this place out and Blanca will ensure you find exactly what you need.

Not only did I find my dream wedding dress at Sueño, but I had a wonderful time because of Myra. She was so attentive, so caring and so fun! They have a huge selection of all types of dresses and my dress, hairpiece and earrings were all under $250 and the quality of all three is excellent. I can't possibly recommend them more and we will be heading up from Seattle to shop with Norma and Myra for all of my daughter's High School dances moving forward.

However every time I call to inquire about appointments, or if a certain dress is in stock, I get hung up on. I called three times today, the same woman answered and hung up on me each time. The first time I thought it was a bad connection. By the second and third time it was clear that I was purposely being disconnected. I'm not one to usually write reviews, but I found it really irksome and irritating to be hung up on when I'm just trying to buy a dress. Don't bother trying to call them for any type of customer service, help on an order or help with anything regarding there store. They will answer and hang up. I suggest just going to a different store if the way they treat you on the phone is any indication of how they will in the future. Will not be buying the dress I wanted to from here anymore because of rude staff.

    SHOP AT YOUR OWN RISK Not enough stress, disappointment, or frustration in your life? Change that…read moreimmediately and look for your dress at Champagne and Disgrace. You will be lied to. You will be disrespected. You will be gas lighted. If you want a knock off gown at designer prices, this is your destination. And don't expect it to fit like the sample, or even be the same fabric or colour. And when it doesn't fit, don't expect a refund (especially after you've signed the refund "waiver"). The owner, Robynn Mcfarlane provides bridesmaids, brides, graduates and moms with the quintessential nightmare shopping experience. Read the other bad reviews and believe them, but whatever you do, don't believe that you are trying on the dress that will be the one that arrives. She orders from China, and you're going to be left in an impossible situation. I suppose the plan is for her to retire beside a lake of brides' tears, and she couldn't care less - as a matter of fact, it would seem that she might actually find some sick satisfaction in it. You'd be better off buying a potato sack because when it doesn't fit right, at least you get to enjoy the potatoes. Shop anywhere but here. PLEASE, SHOP ANYWHERE BUT HERE. (P.S. When R. McUnFairlane disputes this review, her "side of the story" will be riddled with lies.)

    Contrary to the business's reply, the bride did try multiple times to reach somebody at the store…read more I am sitting next to the bride as I type this. After seeing the dress on me she agreed it was not good at all. Robyn was absolutely not rude to me once, her receptionist was. Robyn did offer for me to come have the dress altered at the store, for a price. This felt incredibly offensive as the dress is horrible and she is aware I can't make it to Abby from Burnaby in rush hour after work before they close. I tried twice to pick the dress up and failed. I have now had this dress "fixed" the best it can be by a professional seamstress. This was the second seamstress I had look at the dress. Both agreed the dress does not look as it does in the picture. It sits completely different. The dress is now fitted to me and still looks just terrible. The bride will have an absolutely beautiful wedding day. She completely understands mine, and a few of the other girls, issues with this dress. This will not effect her perfect day as we will make it work for her. I still stand by my previous review and will never purchase another item to this company. The customer is absolutely not always right, however in this case, unfortunately for me, I am.

    Sadly, unprofessional experience…read more The staff seemed disinterested and not motivated from the beginning. There were plenty of mix ups. One of the tux's pants were too short above the ankle ( that's after it was measured on the person). All 3 of the tuxedos had missing black studs for the shirt buttons. There were 2 bow ties and one long tie instead of 3 bow ties. Sadly, we did not check the suits on day of pick up as we were there the day before for fittings. Upon returning the suits, no one was interested with the issues and their mix ups or addressing them. One of the staff that fitted the group and added the black studs just walked away without commenting. I do not recommend this company due to lack of service, care and professionalism. I do recommend you... check your suits and try them on the day of pick up to hopefully avoid issues. check each suit bag before dropping them off as they do a cursory check of the suit and the items.

After a really poor experience at a well known Tux Store in Vancouver, we thought we'd try our luck at Debonair and boy are we glad we did. Incredible service (ask for Rafi - he is the best!), great selection and more than fair pricing, we walked out with a tux rental for our wedding and a shirt to keep. We left feeling very confident after Rafi payed such special attention to us, gave us suggestions and made the whole experience an absolute breeze. Honestly we didn't realize how lacking the service / selection was elsewhere until we came here. Thank you Rafi!

    I really wanted to like Bellingham Antique Mall, but unfortunately I can't recommend it…read more The biggest issue was the smell. There is an older cat in the shop, and while I absolutely love cats, it was very clear that it is urinating inside. The odor of cat urine was extremely strong and hard to ignore. It made it difficult to browse comfortably. Pricing throughout the store also felt high. I did find a few interesting items, but overall many things seemed marked well above what they're worth. The costume jewelry section was especially frustrating. I appreciated that the clerk unlocked the case and allowed me to look, but having someone stand closely beside me the entire time felt awkward; considering the position and place where we were. If the items require that level of supervision, it might make more sense to keep them in the front jewelry counter area. Which they were not using for jewelry. The cabinets being secured with visible chains throughout the store was also off-putting and added to an uncomfortable browsing experience. What truly disappointed me was the pricing and representation of the jewelry. There was a costume ring priced at $80 that appeared to be worth closer to $20. Another was marked $60 and also clearly costume. A "sterling silver" ring was priced at $115, yet there was no visible 925, STER, or STERLING stamp, no paperwork, and the citrine stone did not appear genuine. Without proper identification or documentation, those prices felt unreasonable. Between the odor and the questionable pricing, I left feeling uneasy about the value of other items in the store as well. I'm sharing this in hopes that improvements can be made, because antique shopping should feel enjoyable and trustworthy.
