| - I'm not sure why there is not more great reviews here about Sash and Bustle. I have a feeling it's because they're open by appointment only, and you can't just walk in there. They can be a little hard to reach especially by phone because it's not open all day every day.
If you're looking for beautiful materials this is the place for you. Every dress here is Modern & Feminine. But not too Feminine. And Modern but without the price Tag. They had a dress here for $400 and it was drop dead gorgeous.
I should say, I came here because I am a size 18 (wedding size) and I didn't want a dress which was covered in sequins, beads, and I was a bit sick of trying on things with a laced back. I wanted fashionable, which I accomplished. My dress is this season and the latest from Lula Kate. They also have a range of pretty veils, bags, and a stunning range of bridesmaids dresses.
If you've got no imagination, are over a sample size and need to try something on which fits, this isn't really the place for you. There are a few odd sizes but not a huge amount.
I had my dress made, so although I tried stuff on, I wasn't certain what it would look like. I was so pleasantly surprised when it turned out exactly as I thought it would. Dana and Cynthia were really helpful with information - in fact Dana got me the address of another boutique I was visiting to see more dresses. They're not pushy, or quick and not afraid to let you leave the store - they know you'll be back!
When I made the comparisons in materials (Their Silk Shantungs vs. Satin Satin and more Satin everywhere else) I came straight back and ordered my dress.
Cynthia even shelled out for fedex because Lula Kate wasn't taking Rush orders, and my wedding is only 2 months away. My whole dress was $1400 all in and it's worth every penny. They even got me a second coloured sash to wear at my reception.
I have to give them five stars!! The service was smooth riding the whole way and I never once felt like they weren't listening to what I was asking for. Absolutely stellar service.
