Honestly, this place doesn't even deserve 1 star, but here's our experience…read more WOW, that is my initial response to our experience @ Elegant Evenings in Laurel, MS. My daughter & I drove 2 hours & 45 minutes from Louisiana to shop for her homecoming dress for her senior year. Upon arriving we were met by a sweet young girl, which I wish i had gotten her name. We told her we were looking for something different & she was up for the challenge. She pulled several dresses & we were excited. That was, until the owner's mom came into the picture. She began by pulling dresses out of the dressing room that she felt were "too small" for my daughter.  We were also informed that no pictures were allowed because "the lighting wasn't good" & no one was allowed in the dressing room with her because they're" too small", neither of which was true, but I digress. After the initial encounter with the owners mother, my daughter was determined to leave & was in the dressing room bawling her eyes out from the way she was talked down to by said owner's mother. I mentioned what had happened to our sweet girl helping  & went in to try & calm my daughter down & build her back up to stay & see how it played out. That's when the owner stepped in & again informed me that only 1 person was allowed in the dressing room. She then became our person helping us instead of the initial young lady. I'm sure to help make sure we followed all of the many rules. I did convince my daughter to stay & continue trying on, but there was no way my daughter was going to buy a dress from a business who in her opinion "body shamed" her. Additionally, I've been across the South shopping for homecoming dresses, homecoming suits, prom & pageant dresses & NEVER have I or my girls ever been treated with such disrespect!!!  I absolutely do not recommend visiting this dress shop!!! While their selection appeared to be pretty good, the way we were treated, whether it was just because we were from out of town or because my daughter wasn't the right size clientele, I'm not certain, but it was definitely one of the worst shopping experiences of my life!!!

If you are a father that wants to dress shop with your daughter you may want to choose a different…read morestore! I help my daughter dress shop every year and she loves for me to be involved. We were greeted as we walked in the door and was ask about price range and color she wanted. As we walked to the rack to look at dresses I was ask to please go back to the front of the store because there are dressing rooms everywhere in the main area of the store. My wife could shop with her but not me. So how is a dad supposed to shop with his daughter at this store? The girl went through the rack and picked the dresses she thought my daughter would like. I'll never spend over 500 on a dress without even being able to look on the rack at all they have to offer. It also makes no sense to make me stay by the front door! Because If you see the lay out of the store you can still see every dressing room! It's one big room. Trust me when I say this is not a dad friendly store. I went to the truck and my wife let her try on a few but she couldn't get over me being ask to stay by the front door and wouldn't buy anything from them. Sad because we dealt with a lady last year that let me be very involved and we paid good money for dresses in the past there. Never again!! I was made to feel like a creepy guy just for walking into a store to shop with my daughter! Maybe it's time to change the lay out of the store if you don't want guys in the main shopping area due to the placement of your dressing rooms.
