I took a risk and purchased my dress online. Terry Costa emailed me the same day I ordered letting me know that there was a two month arrival time because the dress had to be hand made. Extremely nervous, I was concerned that I would not be able to get my dress in time to go through alterations and be ready for the ball. After weighing my options I decided to still purchase and Natasha the Rep that I was working with made every possible attempt to get my dress here on time. The level of service here is exceptional even online and Natasha was able to process a complimentary rush on my dress. Now I am worry free and I have a gorgeous dress coming my way! I can only imagine what service is like in store but if you are looking to purchase something online your go to should definitel read more

This place is like the Jekyll and Hyde of dress stores. The left side of the store is set up like an elegant bridal salon, complete with chandeliers and beautiful beaded designer dresses. But turn around and the right-side of the store is filled with every tacky prom dress that nightmares are made of. Ultimately I didn't find anything at Terry Costa that I had a strong desire to try on. They're also very hands off...meaning no one-on-one consultation. You are expected to select your own gowns and a consultant will help you into the dressing room. Some people enjoy having that type of freedom, but personally I like having a professional consultant helping me, especially when I'm unfamiliar with the stock. Most of the dresses were bridal size 6 or 8, which really isnt going to look good on anyone bigger than a street size 10. A couple of dresses were bridal size 12 and up. What bothered me the most was how dirty and tattered all of their sample dresses are. I can understand that a sample dress isn't meant to look pristine, but some of the dresses looked like they had been used to sweep the floors. But to end on a positive note...I will give them credit for having lower prices than most Dallas bridal salons. I had my eye on a Maggie Sottero dress that I tried on at another boutique for $1,800. Terry Costa had the same dress for $1,500. read more

We had SUCH an amazing experience here. There are about a zillion dresses and the staff is SO attentive. We will be back for sure!

Sergio was amazing. I went alone as my mom lives out if this state. He found me beautiful dress after beautiful dress, (IN MY SIZE) gave me honest opinions and made me feel like the most beautiful bride. Such a difference from the big name wedding place I went to, that made me feel bad for not being a size 6. I found my dress and I'm over the moon! Thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. read more

I went there for my wedding dress and finally bought one there. Most of the staff are very helpful and patience. But there is one tall girl seems to not that care about her work. The whole trying process she is quiet and sometimes talking to other sales girls about their personal things. I won't say she is not doing her job, but she is not that into her job as well. When I was in the wedding dress at the mirror, she was just putting a Tiara on her own head and look at the mirror, not even suggesting the customer to have one with the dress. At work time. I don't think this is professional. But there is another girl and guy really patient and helpful. I really appreciate that. read more

We bought my daughter's wedding dress at Terry Costa. We had a bridal appointment and our consultant was Sara and she was amazing! She was full of knowledge and advice but was never overwhelming or in our face. Even after two hours, she was still pleasant and patient. It was our first store, our first dress shopping outing and we left with a beautiful one-of-a-kind dress that was within our budget. If you go, ask for Sara! read more

Had such a great experience here. Lisa is amazing! If you need a bridal consultant, you MUST request her. She is amazing!

I purchased my wedding gown during Terry's wedding event. The consultants accommodated my party of 8 girlfriends without any complaints and gave me a private room to try my gowns in. I didn't even have to call to make an appointment! Although we had to wait over an hour to try on the dresses, browsing their large selection of evening gowns helped us pass the time. They carry the latest designs from Allure, Mori Lee & Maggie Soterro for around $1,000- $2,500 but they had a few gorgeous gowns on sale as well. The dress I purchased ended up being a great fit off the rack so I saved over 40% by purchasing the sample which was in great condition. I honestly had a wonderful experience at Terry Costa & would recommend any bride looking for affordable, stylish gowns to come here first. read more

Long story.... but Terry Costa's staff and flexibility saved me a lot of money, a lot of headache and their staff are what I will remember when I wear my perfect dress down the isle. Shop at Terry Costa! They were wonderful. My Mom also found her mother of the bride dress here. read more

So many beautiful dresses. I got my one of a kind wedding gown from this place and loved it!!! They have designer dresses you typically wouldn't see on the racks in a cookie cutter dress store (David's bridal, etc.). Love the variety...you can literally find ANYTHING!!! read more

Gail was so helpful and sweet!! She helped my mom feel comfortable and happy. She helped us find an amazing dress and didn't even care that we got the cheapest one bc she was more focused on making sure my mom felt beautiful :) read more

I had actually visited this store last year looking for a wedding gown, but didn't find the right dress in my budget. I ended up buying a dress at another store but I had a persistent feeling that it wasn't quite the right one. The night before my appointment for alterations, I stopped by Terry Costa to see if they might have something. I saw some of the same dresses that had caught my eye on the previous visit but they were still out of my price range and the dresses on clearance weren't quite what I was looking for. However, one of the Sales Associates Elena asked if she could help. She made some suggestions and listened as I told her my requirements. After trying on a couple of dresses, we found the one and I bought it. The dress was awe-inspiring and I received many compliments on it during my wedding. Compared to David's Bridal and Alfred Angelo, I think my shopping experience at Terry Costa was the best. I was very impressed with Elena's service and would strongly recommend Terry Costa for finding a wedding gown or formal dress. read more

Even before I made an appt Terry Costa was professional and friendly. I had a room for myself and my 3 best friends, so we could have privacy (and wine). Ashley was incredible! Made me feel very comfortable and was easy going when my friends were opinionated and brought in tons of dresses. Ashely actually picked out the dress I ended up buying. I can't imagine a better experience for someone who had no idea what I wanted. Would highly recommend going with Terry Costa. Never felt bad for having a low budget and they have a massive selection for bridal gowns. Thank you Ashley!!! read more

Anastasia helped me find the wedding dress of my dreams! From start to finish, Anastasia assisted me in trying on my dress, adjusting it to my size, and weeding out the ones that weren't for me. She was more than just someone that helps fit you into your dress, for that hour she was my friend. I'd recommend asking for her next time you come in! read more

I was buying a bridesmaid dress and they sent me to a lady that seemed like she had enough on her plate. Once I picked out my dresses and headed towards the fitting room. I came across CATALINA who noticed I was trying to figure everything out on my own. She was so warm hearted, funny and made deciding on a dress so much easier. EXCELENTE SERVICE! She was so much help. read more

What an amazing place. We came up from Austin to look for prom dresses and stumbled on to this store. Great section of dresses. The staff was amazing. Ms. Claudette and Mary helped our girls with their dresses. They made the girls feel special and helped them pick out the perfect one. Every staff member was a joy to work with, from the person who helped us find the right accessories, to the gentleman handing out water to the check out person. read more

I am recently engaged and getting married at the end of the summer. For other brides, you know that time is not on my side in the dress department. I went to TC today after being referred by my coordinator. I had done my research online, and new they had a trunk show for the Allure Bridal gowns. There were people EVERYWHERE from fellow brides along with their entourages looking for gowns to teens looking for prom dresses. Although it was CRAZY busy, my consultant Ann was FABULOUS. She was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable. Christian, the Allure Bridal consultant, came in and teamed up with Ann and together they found my dream dress. Despite the hustle and bustle of the day, the two of them made me feel so special. I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend coming here to find the dress of your dreams. They really take care of their brides and the prices are beyond reasonable. I advise going to their website beforehand to check for upcoming trunk shows to get $$$ off. I can't wait for my dress to come in. I'm going to make sure I pick it up and try it on when Ann is working. She was the best!!! read more

Terry Costa - Women's Clothing Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This was our first time in and wow! Soooo many dresses to choose from and the staff was friendly and helpful, without fail. Mallary was our personal assistant in the dressing area and she did the unthinkable! She had an immediate rapport with my daughter and put her completely at ease. This was by far the easiest and smoothest formal dress shopping we've ever done. I recommend Mallary and Terry Costa! read more

I came to Terry Costa for my very first time trying on wedding dresses! I had no idea what to expect and was very impressed. Markie was my consultant and I had her undivided attention until I found my dress! It turned out that the third dress I tried on was the one. I tried on a few others after that and came back to that one - and Markie was ready with the box of tissues and the "I said yes to the dress" sign!! All of the staff were so welcoming and helpful. There was even a sales rep there from the designer I ended up purchasing and she helped pull dresses and I really valued her opinion and loved her involvement. I cannot imagine a better experience finding the gown of my dreams! Thank you for helping me find my dream dress, Terry Costa!! read more

Not happy with this store. Disgusted. They are not helpful. I have a wedding coming up in July 2019 and went to look for a dress. I thought I found the dress I wanted. It was a horrible experience. The original dress I wanted, the sale clerk, Gail, said it could not be altered. They didn't have time to help me. I had my friends helping. I was put in the warmest room of the dressing rooms trying to put these dresses on. They are unwilling to help the customer in any way, shape or form. I called the customer service of the dress maker and they said to me to have the store call them and talk with them. I called Terry Costa back again to have them do this and they said they already did but when I wanted to conference all 3 of us to verify if the dress was even started. I did the down payment on Sunday at 4 pm and called the store on first thing on Monday morning. It is not a special order dress. Just a regular size. No measurements were taken. The dress could sell in the store after it arrived but I think they want their commission. The sales people and the managers are absolutely no help. I work hard for my money, like everyone else. I don't appreciate the fact that I am losing 215.42. BUYERS BEWARE!!!!!!!!! read more

I absolutely love Terry Costa! The service is great and what's most important to them is finding a dress that best fits you! Also Sergio's the bomb.com! read more

I recently visited here to try on wedding dresses and I also visisted many years ago looking for prom dresses. I didn't find a dress that I fell in love with either time but I appreciated their great customer service and their huge selection to choose from. At my most recent visit for bridal dresses Whitnee was more than helpful and I only wish I could've brought her with me to all of my other bridal appts at other salons. Don't be surprised when you try the dresses on and find small tears or stains, obviously other people are trying them on as well. When you order your own it will come to you brand new. Be aware of their busy and down times so you can be prepared. Maybe call ahead. In my opnion their prices aren't unreasonable. I would absolutely recommend visiting here if you are looking for a special occasion dress. read more

I cannot say enough good things about this place! First off, I walked in off the street with no appointment (it was a Tuesday) and they were happy to accommodate me right away. Ann was my consultant, and she was AWESOME! Seriously - ask for her. I tried on 6-8 dresses and found a few that I liked, but ended up leaving without making a purchase. Long story short, I found my dress at a different salon, but the customer service was terrible and I refused to give them my money, so we came back to Terry Costa and Ann found the dress in their back room and the rest is history! I was able to try the dress on again, and loved it even more my second time around. The viewing area at Terry Costa is amazing! They have a runway with three way mirrors and adjustable lighting - it's perfect! Ann was able to find me the perfect veil as well and honestly, I was just so happy a friend made me walk into this store - best decision of my wedding planning so far! read more

I went in here to look for a sexy yet elegant formal dress for margarita ball. I walked in and the girl at the front desk was courteous. The lady who helped me was really nice, patient, and listened to what I was looking for. The selection they have is large and any kind of style you are looking for. The lasy helpinb me must have helped me try on about 20 different dresses even though I knew I wanted the third dress I tried on. If you are looking for anything bridal or formal I would really recommend this place. read more

Check this place out if you have a certain budget for your wedding gown. The place is set up like a TJMaxx and whatnot but who cares. The dress you are getting is being ordered anyways unless you buy off the "as is" rack. Basically you go through the rack of dresses and pick the ones you want to try on. You go into the fitting room and dress yourself like any other place you try on clothes. Its not like a typical bridal boutique where a person is holding your hand the whole time dressing you. If you need assistance there is a lady in there that will help assist you. You just have to let her know. Also, you can spend as long as you want in the dresses looking yourself in the mirror and trying to decide if you like it or not. No time limit just you and all the dresses you want to try on. Yes, some of the dresses look worn but again you are not buying that dress. If you are looking for preserved dresses to try on then I'd stick with the boutiques. No appointment needed. I found my Maggie Sottero dress here! read more

Would definitely recommend! The racks were all nicely organized to help make it manageable to search through multiple dresses. The staff is kind and efficient. They take their time with you which is really special. We just walked in and they helped us find an amazing dress at a reasonable price! read more

awesome service, they're really patient with you and try their best to go with the type of dresses you want. the people here are so nice even for the fact that it's busy, they still manage to get you in and out! read more

I was trying on prom dresses and the lady that was supposed to be helping me was very rude and pushy. She kept walking in on me naked and was shoving her way in. She also had a very bad attitude and would not mind her business. She made me want to leave to be honest, i did not feel comfortable there. She was tall with brunette hair very skinny. read more

I went in with my sister to look for her wedding gown. The staff was extremely helpful and attentive but not in a pushy or overbearing way. They wrote down her favorites for us so we could remember which ones she had tried on and liked which was great as she was trying to make her decision later since Terry Costa was the first place we went. My sister came back later on and ended up getting her dress there and it was beautiful! Terry Costa gave us the best experience of the day by far. We also looked at the bridesmaids dresses there twice and ended up getting them at Terry Costa as well. The staff was extremely helpful both times we came in as well as when we came in to measure me for my bridesmaid dress and helped us find dresses that would give us an idea of what size I needed to order since I was in between sizes with my measurements. Overall we had a great experience and they were very helpful and easy to work with!! read more

Three stars for their merchandise but that is pretty much all they have going for them. I've been going to Terry Costa for years and I'm usually in and out with what I need on my own. During last years prom season an associate was really sweet to me while I was shopping for an evening gown for an event. Most recently I bought my wedding dress from here and I appreciate that Serenity accommodated me last minute close to their closing time. She was very sweet and easy going. I ended up finding a dress that I fell in love with (totally unexpected.) A few months later I brought my sister to see it and another bridal associate came up and I asked for assistance. She probed around but didn't seem to take me seriously or believe me when I had said I was a bride (I'm 26 with a baby face). Serenity happened to see me and assisted me which was great! The other woman looked surprised that I was actually a bride and just stared the whole time... They don't book appointments for the weekday in bridal but a Tuesday was the only day my family was able to come with me to say yes to the dress and make everything official. I did call in though a few days before and I asked that Serenity assist me and my family since she was so sweet. I told them the situation and said I was bringing my family in and they asked for a time we would be there and I gave them one. The woman on the phone said she would relay the message to Serenity. When I got there for the appointment I was told Serenity was out for lunch (even though they took my name, number, and the time I was to be there). It took a while for them to bring another associate over. I wanted to have the front fitting room because it was more intimate and had room for my family. (other brides were on the runway inside which was also part of the reason why as well). I was told that I could not use that particular fitting room because it was Serenity's (???) and I should wait for her to be back. That wasn't possible because we were on a tight schedule and we were already running behind... I was able to get Anne to assist me but she didn't seem very happy about it... it came out eventually that she had been on her way to her lunch when she was pulled to assist me. She did perk up though and our appt ended on a better note. I'm in love with my dress and I cannot wait for it to get here, I just wish they had been more organized and accommodating. I did not feel like a bride at all. It felt like I was at Dillard's getting a sundress instead of my wedding gown. Nobody seemed to take me seriously at all because my wedding date is still pending. I really don't know what that was all about... It kinda sucks seeing pictures of brides who got to take photo's with a sign and what not... I definitely did not receive that same service. I do hope that when my gown comes in and I bring my family one more time that it will be a better experience. I'm still a loyal customer but it's a hit or miss with the bridal associates, If you're a bride, ask for Serenity. The other ones just seem cranky and unwilling to assist you. I have no complaints about the associates working the evening wear floor. They have always been fantastic. read more

I bought my wedding dress here, overall I really enjoyed my experience . Vera was the lady's name who helped me she was very sweet and helpful. If the wait wasn't so long I would of given it a 4 star!! read more

Oh my gosh! Are used to go in Terry Koster when they had suits for work or if I needed something for a special occasion. I went in Saturday for a mother of the bride's dress and was treated very respectful, Claudette's customer service is over-the-top. She is always been a great help and will find you a dress that looks good on you and knows your size by looking at you and never steered me wrong. I really appreciate her help and Terry Koster is number one in the area of customer respect appreciation and is all about customer service. read more

Walked in. Not a single person greeted me. Walked around for a good twenty minutes. No one asked if I needed help or even acknowledged me. Horrible customer service. Never go there. I Blane myself. Got shitty service when I tried to buy a wedding gown, why I expected different trying to buy a flower girls dress is beyond me. Im stupid and they suck. read more

Was very excited to come into this store because I've heard very good things, but I was very disappointed in everything about the store. Firstly, the service was terrible. Straight away, I knew that the consultants/associates were earning by commission. One of the first things the sales associate said was to mention her name later on so she can get paid for commission. Rude, curt and pushy, all the associates that talked to me were terrible. Secondly, they have no sense of boundaries. From hounding my friends and me on the floor to opening our dressing room curtains while we were naked (without asking/announcing their presence), it turned what was supposed to a be a fun experience into a stressful one. While the dresses in the store were absolutely beautiful, the service was horrendous. I've never felt more anxious and flustered while shopping. Lastly, the store layout is unorganized. All the dresses are packed tightly into racks and unfortunately, looking for dresses is difficult. read more

I got my wedding gown at Terry Costa this past spring. It was my first day actively looking and I thought that's all I was going to do was look. I found a few dresses that I had seen on their website that I wanted to try on. They also have a "sample gown" rack and I decided to look there. I found the most gorgeous gown on that rack. It's original price was $900, but if I purchased the sample, it was only $195!!! I inspected the gown for damage, since I'm sure alot of girls were trying it on and their wasn't more than usual, so I decided to try it on and it fit like a glove, with the exception of it being very long. I am only 5' 3", so any dress would need a hem. My consultant, Vera, was very pleasant and even had the seamstress who works a few suites away come and give me an estimate for alterations. I bought the dress, but decided to use another seamstress for my alterations. All in all the dress experience was pleasant. They do need more help, Vera was very busy helping at 3 of us that evening and she was trying to accomodate all of us at the same time. I would recommend going on an evening and not a Saturday if you want better service, but lots of gowns to choose from and nice sales people. read more

I had a great experience here last Friday with my mother. I am getting married in May and my mother flew into Dallas to go dress shopping with me. We had visited one other store prior to visiting Terry Costa and did not have a good experience. I was a little skeptic going to Terry Costa just because of my experience at another bridal store. But Terry Costa was amazing! Ann was my sales consultant and made the whole experience great! She gave me one on one attention the entire time I was there. She helped me pull all the dresses, helped me zipper and button the dresses, asked me questions about my fiance' and our wedding date. I was coming from another bridal shop that basically gave me a fitting room and left us alone with no help. But not here at Terry Costa, you will get the attention every bride deserves! I came during the Allure Trunk show and found a one of a kind dress that I am in love with it! The whole experience was great and what I pictured my wedding dress fitting to be. Thank you Ann for helping me find my wedding dress! I highly recommend brides to come to Terry Costa and you don't need an appointment! read more

My daughter and I went to Terry Costa on a Monday to look for a bridal gown for her. I had called ahead and knew they did not take appointments. The two people at the front desk greeted us and directed us to the bridal department and told us someone would be with us shortly. Finally, one of the women from the front desk came back and said, "I guess I am going to be the one to help you." She obviously was not interested in helping us and the entire experience was a disaster. She just stood there and watched as we pulled gowns and carried them to the dressing area. She offered no assistance in helping with fit or other possible options. We left after about fifteen minutes and although I have shopped there successfully before, i will not go back. read more

Honestly, I came in here to kill time because I had booked two appointments to other bridal stores that day: David's Bridal and Alfred Angelo. First impression when I came in to Terry Costa was, "Okay, probably not going to find anything here," because the first bridal selections I saw were either rare designer ones that were not in my budget or vintage-looking ones, or ones that were too flashy for my taste. HOWEVER, I ended up browsing and found the perfect one for me - a dress with just enough embellishments to make people go "ooh!" but not "AHH" because they're blinded by all the bling. AND it was under $1000! I tried to go over David's Bridal early for my appointment and flipped through catalogs, but I knew in my heart that the the dress at Terry Costa had won me over. I ended up canceled both appointments. The service was awesome! My consultant, Alexis, was very sweet and helpful. She waited outside my dressing room for me. When my cousin was helping me with putting on the bra that I borrowed, I mentioned to my cousin that I might be another size and Alexis brought me that size bra without me having to ask for it. She also helped me lace up the corset back of the dress... and I tried on that dress three times. She took her time to lace me up, making sure it was done correctly and looked beautiful even though it was just a try-on session. She was very patient, very friendly, making me feel comfortable, and giving honest opinions. I just purchased the dress the same day. Get this - they even told me that there was a sale next month where everything would be 20% off, and they were going to take my credit card info down but not charge me until next month so I can get the sale price. I signed a contract with the discounted price. SaWEET! Then, they also mentioned that all things bought at the store were 15% off until the day of my wedding since I purchased the dress, but next month if I order anything else, it would be 20% off. Alexis also helped me choose my bridesmaid colors and told me that if my bridesmaids (who were out-of-town) liked a certain style they saw online of a brand that they had, they could just let them know and they would order it for us. Definitely made my whole experience easy! My mom also loved it because she saw some conservative dresses out there, so I am definitely coming back to take advantage of the 20% discount. read more

Would not shop here again for wedding dresses. This store is much better for prom or special event dresses.

My daughter and I just purchased a lovely prom gown at Terry Costa today. It was our second year in a row to shop here, and I've bought special occasion dresses here in the past. We had a wonderful shopping experience up until check out. The woman who checked us out seemed very frustrated that she couldn't ring up the earrings we purchased with the gown, and then after she finally rang us up I asked her for an accounting, as the price seemed higher than it should have been. She mentioned a shipping charge of $15 and I told her we didn't ship - we bought straight from stock. She raised her voice to me and said, "You have to tell me these kinds of things. That wasn't anywhere on your paperwork!" She turned what was an otherwise wonderful shopping experience for my daughter and I into a real downer. I won't shop at Terry Costa again. read more
