So, I went to take it back on the Saturday, and could not get a refund, only store credit...the outfit was well over £500. Woud you run a business where you didn't care if your customers were actually happy with what they had bought - for one of the most special occasions of their lives - their daughters wedding? It's clear that they just want to take your money - the style is very 90's and the quality not good. Do not shop there!!!

I think in reality to really ' work ' this label you have to have sophisticated glamour. The clothes have a wow factor but only for women who can and want to project this image. You can wear great clothes but have to own them, work them and be unashamedly elegant, sassy and desirable to get away from the ' six year old fairy' review of the previous client.

Absolutely brilliant service, will definately order again with this company, thanks againread more

This petite boutique…read moreon the leafy Beech Road area of Chorlton Cum Hardy literally drags you in off the pavement with its eye-catching window display. Whoever designed the window display is an artist as a scarecrow dressed in the most yummy butterfly halter-neck stands in a landscape of flowers. I entered in a trance like state and the lovely assistant Rebecca helpfully talked me through the stock. I loved the fact that they do not buy in bulk and you view each garment as a "piece" rather than simply clothes. Prices are moderate, slightly more than high street chains but you don't mind paying £60 for a unique Nood creation as opposed to £45 for a high street clone. Colours are bright and fabrics are great quality. Recognisable names such as Religion get into bed with new designer wares. This is no run of the mill ladieswear. A new range of gorgeous dove grey vintage inspired oilcloth bags and cute jewellery are also available to compliment your outfit. Open Monday to Saturday from 10.30am -6pm, Nood also opens its doors on a Sunday (12-5pm)- very handy for weekday nine to fivers. So did I buy the butterfly dress? Sadly no as Rebecca explained its lining was shop damaged, however she kindly offered to repair it for me. Lovely attitude, lovely shop. Definately one to seek out..

This longevity is testament to the enduring talent of owner Alison, who has continually offered an eclectic mix of clothes, accessories and shoes from her own portfolio as well as interesting ranges from other designers like Religion, Gash and Get Cutie. It never feels stagnant in here, she keeps it fresh and all the accessories, bags and belts are so different to what you'd find on the high street. What I love most about this store though is it caters for every pocket. You can see why it has such a wide appeal.

I've tried on some gorgeous trousers in here (the only reason I didn't make the purchase was because they were the wrong colour in the end) and bought a summer t-shirt for £18 that I've worn to death. They've also got some great accessories in here - belts and necklaces and reasonably priced shoes, although I've never found what I wanted in my size! Probably a good thing because I've be buying all of them
