    I completely agree with Eleanor's statement that the dresses are old fashioned. There is no doubt…read morethat many of these are aimed at more mature ladies and this is pretty apparent from a glance at the window display. However, there are also some rather fancy numbers which would be good for more formal do's. Though, like Eleanor I'm pretty small at 5ft 3", hence didn't even attempt to try on their long, flowing cocktail dresses. This is also the reason why I can't comment greatly on customer service. But, when I popped in for a nosey the staff seemed pleasant enough and after a quick greeting and enquiry as to what I had in mind, they happily left me along to have a browse. Potentially this was only because I clearly had no idea or occasion in mind, who knows? Anyway, this is a pleasant enough shop though up my street; I'm sure it's the kind of place that your mum or older aunt might enjoy a look in.

    Cuckoo is a very fancy little boutique on Clarkston Road. I popped in here a few years ago when I…read morewas looking for a dress for my School Leavers Dance. This didn't go as well as I'd hoped. After trying on what felt like 100 dresses, I left disheartened as none of them suited me. I actually thought a few looked quite good but the busybody shop assistant assured me that none of them did after humming and hawing and a series of, "yes, that one's not for you..." I can't say it was a very positive shopping experience and definitely not good for my self-confidence. To be fair, I'm only 5ft so very small and I guess I didn't really do any of the dresses justice. I kind of just looked like a little girl who was trying on my mums clothes. I think the dresses here are generally designed for womanly hourglass figures so unless you're Marilyn Monroe, forget it. The dresses are very glamorous to look at but I found some of them were a bit old fashioned and be warned, if you're looking for an ego boost you definitely won't get it here!
