Occasions Boutique 30 East King Street, Malvern, PA 19355

"Occasions was my third dress shop/boutique to visit for my son's wedding in December. I can not speak highly enough about how wonderful my experience was there!! Susanna, our sales assistant, was beyond delightful, helpful, honest and enjoyable to work with!!! There was no sense of over the top pressure to purchase something as is the case in every other store that we were in. She also left my friend and I plenty of space to try a dress on and have our own discussions and comments on what we thought about each dress. I found a beautiful dress that I am thrilled with and can't wait to wear! She made it such a fun experience that I returned the following day and purchased two other dresses from the sale room that I can wear to other functions we have this fall!"

"This is Jill Arbiz, I had an absolutely wonderful experience shopping at Occasions. Susanna was so professional, knowledgeable yet so personable. Susanna’s bubbly personality and years of experience make this boutique so unique! She took her time with me, helping me find the perfect MOB dress. I had heard positive reviews from acquaintances and was not disappointed. Thank you so much for your kindness and thoughtfulness. I love,love,love my dress! I would highly recommend going to Occasions. ❤️"

"My wife took our daughter to this boutique for her senior prom dress. She said the sales woman was great to work with. When my wife and daughter went for my daughter’s first fitting at the seamstress (not affiliated with this boutique) they saw there was a loop missing on the back of the dress, which explains why it was laced differently than the manufacturer’s website had it shown. Had it been laced properly, it would have been very obvious to the person trying it on as it would not have been aligned properly or been able to be tied. It is also visibly dirty inside. Also, upon closer inspection of the earrings we purchased, we found seven total rhinestones missing. Three were in the box and the others were not, which means they were sold to us with missing rhinestones. So, we have to pay extra to have the seamstress put a loop on the dress and we need to buy new earrings. I am not one to write reviews, but I felt it necessary in this case. It is disappointing to me that a dress boutique of this caliber would actually sell damaged merchandise. I would expect this at a large store, but not here. Please inspect everything very carefully before purchasing."

"What a phenomenal place. Much better selection than high-end department stores or other specialty shops. Extremely helpful sales help ( ask for Eileen), she has great insights and could not have been more helpful. As mother of the groom, I was very nervous about getting the right dress, the word I heard the most about my dress was "Stunning." Thank you!"

"Horrible experience. Body shame much? Brought my daughter here for prom shopping. We were early for our appt but were given permission to browse all the 00’s out for sale. Largest size we found on the floor was a 4. When asked if there were larger dresses available to try on, the saleswoman informed my daughter that she could look in downstairs in the MOM section because she “actually” sells 4-5 dresses a season for girls like her?!! How rude! Proud of my daughter for speaking up and saying “that wouldn’t be necessary”. At that point the saleswoman directed my daughter to the back room “bathroom” to look at a dozen or so size 8, 10, 12 and 14 size dresses. Why are they kept in the back? We stayed 15 minutes and immediately left. If you would like your teenage daughter to experience this kind of treatment, in what is probably a stressful shopping trip for them to begin with, by all means shop here. If you would like to support a small business with great service, selection, size ranges and style, drive on over to Bedazzled Boutique in Newtown Square. Here they empower our young women to look their best and feel beautiful. Holly will take good care of you. Lastly, the dress we bought off the rack needing only a hem at Bedazzled Boutique was in the Occasions window for $70 more."
