TL;DR: Not going back…read more I'd noticed this store years ago, but since it seemed to only sell underwear, I never went it. Finally, though, when I saw a sign outside mentioning Cut Loose, one of my favorite brands of clothing, I stopped in. The front of the store holds tops and the back of the store has a rack of jeans -- one brand I like is featured there (NYDJ). The rest of the store has underwear and pajamas. I have found at least one item at this store that I wear a lot -- a pair of NYDJ jeans. I prefer it when no one helps me, when I can look through the store on my own and decide if I like something or not. However, usually either the owner helps me or her associate does. Once I had both helping me when I was trying on bras. They also grabbed a bunch of tops for me to try on and exclaimed how wonderful they all looked on me. I ended up buying a number of tops, plus the bra that day. At one point during my fitting, one of the woman suggested I exercise. I'd never had anyone tell me that (except doctors and my kids and husband). I was offended, but still purchased the items. Of the items I bought that day, the only thing I've worn much is the bra. I keep trying on one item, but it just is not me. The others, well, I have worn them once or twice, but they are not me either. I've continued to go to the store, sometimes buying items, usually not. The most recent visit was my last though. I'd been to lunch with a friend, and parked in the parking lot where this store is located. I figured I had some time left on my parking stub, so went to check out what was on sale. The owner was there and asked if I'd shopped there before -- I was masked, so I understand that she didn't recognize me, but when I dropped my mask, she still didn't. That's okay. She asked my size, and pointed me to what she called cute tops in the front. I found nothing cute, in fact everything was pretty tacky in my opinion. I mentioned that the jeans I were wearing (same brand as they carry) were size 4. She told me they were too long. I countered that I liked my pants long and she argued if they were shorter they could be rolled up to become capris.

Excellent experience and highly recommend. I tried to find bras myself, wasn't successful, and then…read morefound this place.

They offer a spectacularly curated and frequently updated selection of some of the best labels, particularly the Adams Morgan location. I hadn't been back since 2022--far too long. During this most recent visit last week I was refitted and tried on at least a dozen bras, lingerie, and corsets. Ursula and Ashley were amazing--helpful, patient, and genuine hype girls (over the course of 2+ hours of indecision). They took turns bringing things based on what I picked out, my updated size, and whatever else caught their expert eye, and helped me get in and out of the corsets as needed. We even talked must-have skincare at one point!

If you're considering branching out and visiting one of "those" stores, this is an excellent place…read moreto start. This is not a sleazy adult store. People of different sexual orientations, different needs, and at different stages in their life can come here to learn, to shop, to be educated. The owners are a beautiful couple who you can tell love and care about their business. The store itself is super chic and you can tell by all the little touches - it was a labor of love that has translated to comfort and ease in finding products. Whether you're into the BDSM scene or just want to beef up your romance, and regardless of whether you're straight or LGBTQ, they probably have something that interests you. . You'll find either proven favorites or new toys created by established leaders. From toys and lubes to protection and costumes, they've got it all. Now this IS Adams Morgan, so expect to find parking SOMEwhere - the visit will be well worth it. It's a LOCAL business, owned by LOCAL entrepreneurs and I was happy to support that - you should too!

So I'm like yes customer service, but after telling her what I was looking for, she immediately let me know they didn't have dancer fits.

I went with my best friend two times to help her select her wedding dress, and it was at this BHLDN…read more(Anthro Weddings) that she found her perfect match! Tears were shed, a veil was donned, bubbly was had, and the whole experience was perfect. Having been to a bunch of bridal shops with her and previously for myself and other friends, I can also affirm that the value of these dresses is unbelievably good. I was shocked when I saw the price tag of her top two contenders, and I mean shocked in a good way! Her Anthropologie dress cost far less than my own wedding gown that was purchased nearly 10 years ago. And it is BEAUTIFUL with the quality that she deserves. Later I may update this review to explain the name of her dress, which turned out to be special as well. In sum: would recommend this experience and location, which is within what I call "the mecca" aka the most delightfully large Anthropologie in downtown Bethesda! Note on parking: easy as pie parking in the lot just down the block. You pay with parking number in a machine or with the ParkMobile app. No need to search for street parking!

For those of you who've spent years cramming yourself into whatever approximation of your size you…read morecould find at a department store, a place like this is genuinely life-changing. Regular fittings aren't a luxury -- they're a necessity -- and stores willing to take the time to actually help you (and know what they are doing) are few and far between. When you're not a standard size, shopping for bras is basically a part-time job with no benefits. So when you find a store that actually gets it, you are winning. And you will never purchase a bra in a box ever again. Alexandra and Janiyah were an absolute dream team. What started as a straightforward fitting turned into something closer to amusement. These ladies are pros. Janiyah knew exactly what she was doing and Alexandra kept materializing out of thin air with another bra every 30 seconds -- like a mystical Bra Fairy. The team kept the whole thing feeling fun and completely unpressured. And their bras are gorgeous. Thirty minutes. In and out. Properly fitted. Laughing the whole way through. If you've been putting this off, consider this your sign. Ask for Alexandra and Janiyah. Prepare to be visited by the Bra Fairy and leave a happier person - the twins will thank you .

TL; DR: immediately yes, come here and treat yourself! Stephanie is lovely! 10/10 new bra store…read morebecause a major retailer could never!!! I needed to find a strapless bra that would fit under a satin sleek off the should dress same day and Stephanie came through!!! I came here after rushing to another store in silver spring that closed hours earlier than they said they would when I called and talked to someone. Le Bustiere Boutique in Bethesda is nestled in between an alley and another store, but the inside 100% gives the vibe of boutique versus strip mall. They hung a few bras on the wall and then their dressing room is tucked away in the back with an adorable mural of different breasts with an affirmative saying in neon pink lighting. I use a special calculator (a bra that fits) to help determine my size and when I went Stephanie measured me exactly to that measurement. I was shocked because that never happens and it really helped me feel even more confident about my purchase. I was able to get my strapless bra and a new everyday t shirt bra. It's a French brand and I haven't ever had something feel like it's not there when I wear it. 10/10 really like this place and will be back without a doubt. If you're reading this then please just go, don't even hesitate.

She is grounded and helpful and makes the tasks of finding a perfect bra for you her goal! From a customer/employee standpoint she can "read the room" and really gives you whatever services style you desire. The first time i met her I wanted to be in/out and didn't even wanna explore and she was helpful and made it fast, then this time i had more time and i loved that she listened to how I wanted the bra to feel/fit and she had me try on a few to see what i was working with and then said Ill be back and had 4 perfect options for me! She wasn't pushy or overbearing , she asked permission to help me adjust into my bra properly (i have a very full bust) and as some who dreads bra shopping with a large chest she made me feel seen and comfortable. And again aside from this experience i always find this store very chill and helpful when i do pop in. This is exactly the customer service I expect when shopping at luxury department stores! Thank you for the consistency in customer service.

This review is not specifically for a Bloomingdale's store, it's more about Bloomingdale's overall…read more I ordered three pairs of men's hokas running shoes online, but they only shipped two pairs. I have called their customer service number multiple times and filed multiple claims. However, Bloomingdale's will not issue a refund or a replacement because they say that since the package arrived, there's nothing they can do. The other thing they can't do is provide proof that all three pairs of shoes ended up being shipped. Their system is horrible because you can't actually talk to the people who review the claims. If I could give them zero stars, I would. p. s. If you want an actual person to review your claim with Bloomingdale's and not a bot, you have to call their number. If you submit it online, it will just be auto reviewed by a bot.
