From the reviews
We had such a wonderful experience at this prom dress shop, thanks to Wafa! She was absolutely amazing! so helpful, knowledgeable, and genuine. She made our experience so fun.
The entire staff was helpful, courteous and amazing! Especially Wafa! Brought my niece here to pick out her prom dress and the experience was AMAZING. We were all tears by the time she chose the one! Great selection, range of sizes, and prices. My niece felt safe and special.
My daughter and aunt had just left Peaches disappointed with the price of dressing. We looked up prom dress stores and found elegant couture Wafa was great ! She knows what she is doing. She was very well versed, professional, patient, knowledgeable and helpful. Please let her help your daughter! Thank you Wafa!!
This place is absolutely amazing! The employees were so helpful and friendly!!! I 100% recommend this boutique! A very nice woman named Wafa helped me with my dresses! Such a calm and beautiful experience. The prices are very good as well! I’ll never forget it! I got the perfect dress with them💕💕💕
Plus size bridal & formal at Elegant Couture
Elegant Couture comes up for plus size bridal and formal wear — confirmed on their own site. Two things to know before the trip. First, bridal shopping is usually by appointment — book ahead, and when you call, ask what size range their try-on samples come in. A shop can order almost any gown in your size, but the sample sizes on the floor decide whether you actually get to see yourself in the dress, and the good plus bridal shops stock samples to try, not just to imagine. Second, plan the alterations timeline: gowns and formal dresses typically go through two or three fittings, so the comfortable window is starting your search around 8–10 months before the date and saying yes to a gown by 6. Alterations are mentioned on site here, which makes the fitting logistics a whole lot easier.
