Pricey, but worth it.
First, let it be said, that I am no fan of spending lots of money. Despite that, while the dresses can be on the high end of what I want to pay, it's worth it for a dress that is unique and will not look like everyone else's dress.
My mother found the dress she wanted here for my wedding four years ago, as well as my brother's this summer. It is our go-to store for when we have a very special event, such as an immediate family wedding, to find a stylish, gorgeous dress for my mom, who is not yet 50 and doesn't want to wear dowdy mother of the bride or groom dresses, but wants to looks elegant and classy.
Some people may find the attitudes and service off-putting, but you will get the "boutique" mindset if you go to a boutique, and also get boutique service. They may not have tons of people to provide service, but when it's your turn, they give you their complete attention, expertise and honesty. They will show you what looks good on you, and will be honest if a dress is simply not working for you or if you're looking for a dress that's not going to accentuate the good and hide the bad.
Typical of boutiques, the nicest dresses aren't always out on the floor, and they are not eager to bring out every dress they have if you're just looking. Like I said, this is common to all higher-end boutqiues (or at least I have found this to be true). You don't get the "mall" attention and pressure and eagerness to please at any cost, but you also don't get the "mall" opinions (where everything looks fine on you) and dresses (which are not of the same caliber or quality).
It depends what you're looking for. They certainly have lots of dresses to browse through that aren't quite as expensive, but typically, the products I find most gorgeous are the ones that are obviously more expensive and meant for a truly special occasion. That beign said, the selection is quite good.
