I shopped next door at Carmen's Designs for my bridal shower dress.
I would not recommend shopping here. They are extremely unprofessional.
I ordered a dress and made it very clear that it had to be a new dress because I didn't want the one off the floor as it was damaged. I was promised a new dress would be ordered.
A month later I received a call that the dress was in... and guess what?! It was the same dress I had originally tried on. I was told that the manufacture must have sent a floor model - right!
Anyways, that dress became a thing of the past and I ended up ordering two other dresses and had no choice but to go with one of them since I wasn't given the option of getting my deposit back.
Slight alterations had to be made to the dress near the bust. From one Saturday to the next the seamstress said I must be bloated because the dress was too tight!
She insisted that she didn't take the dress in too much and it was my fault that the dress was now too tight. After much arguing and convincing, she finally adjusted the dress. At this point, 2 weeks before my shower they said they would give me back my money and I could go elsewhere. Where was I going to find a new dress in 2 weeks?! All they could say was these things happen!
After visiting Carmen's Designs for almost 2.5 months, I would not recommend purchasing a dress here.
I was planning on purchasing 2 flower girl dresses for my girls at Carmen's Design for Children, but they lost that sale!
