My shopping experience was wonderful! It is often difficult to do business online or over the telephone - especially when you are out-of-state. Even if you are lucky enough to speak to someone in person, the customer service and follow up is lacking. That was not the case with French Novelty. My inquiries were handled with absolute professionalism and the follow-up was superb I saw this dress in June and was ABSOLUTELY certain I wanted it for my 2016 prom. It was sold out on just about every website that carried it and French Novelty was the only retailer that offered to purchase it directly from the manufacturer. My mom worked directly with Jen and ordering through her was a positive experience; completely stress-free. I received a "confirmation" email an "estimated ship date" email and a "just shipped" email with a tracking number. The dress arrived with no incident and I am super excited to have the dress of my dreams!

I came here because i had a military ball that i only had 3 months to find a dress for. When i went in, i had no idea what to look for or what would look good on me because i had never gone to any formal event before. but my consultant (Kat) was AWESOME!! she found the perfect dress that i fell in love with and was WAAAY under my budget! she saved me tons of money and made me so happy. every time i went in to make a payment on the dress (which BTW, the payment plan was awesome and the required deposit was close to nothing!), all the ladies were so nice and polite, and extremely patient with me. and all the prices were amazing. i would definitely recommend this store to any one looking for any kind of dress. balls/proms/pagent/weddings you name it they have it ! definitely earned a 5 star rating from me!

I would give you 100 stars if I could! You save the day for us when our alteration lady cut the skirt off the dress just a little longer than a top! Then tried to sew it back on! I would love to show you the picture, you would get your laugh of the day! Anyway, Jen saved the day! Fifteen minutes BEFORE the store closed, ON FRIDAY, she took my order for the ONLY dress they had in the shop that just happened to be the correct size..... a beautiful rose gold sequin by Christina Chu, I believe?......It arrived the following MONDAY! God bless the people at French Novelty! Needless to say French Novelty is on my favorites list and they WILL be my "go to shop" from now on! Thank you, thank you! Colleen

For every special event, I buy my dress from French Novelty. The dresses are very beautiful and price is excellent. Also, they have extensive collection from all the designers! Nobody has this kind of dress. The website is very well organized, by designer, by occasion and easy to find what you need. People remember me because of the beautiful dresses I wear.... I am very satisfied with the dresses. More over, I feel very happy wearing such beautiful dresses and my husband loves it!!!

My daughter and I traveled from VA to shop at your store for Prom dresses. It was her Senior Year, so we knew we wanted something different AND special. We knew all about you, because we follow French Novelty on all the Social Media sites. When we walked in, we were greeted by Jessica. She spoke with my daugther for a while to get a feel as to the type of dress she wanted. Jessica pulled aside about four dresses for my daugther, and after a while, we walked out with a GORGEOUS 2-piece Faviana NY gown!! Best experience ever! Already looking at when we can come back to shop for other speciality gowns!! :)

After contacting numerous formal wear stores to order my daughters dress and being told there wasnt one to be found in the U.S., I called French Novelty and am so thankful I did!!! Mary took my call, put me on hold for two minutes and returned saying she had located the dress in the right size/color in the designers warehouse in... Canada!!! She ordered it on 2/22 and told us it would arrive between 3/3 and 3/6. It arrived TODAY!!!!!! Thank you MARY for great customer service, going above and beyond and looking outside the country to find the perfect dress!!!!

Natasha was so helpful from the moment we walked in the door @ 6:00- they close @ 7. She asked what was the date of my daughters prom and I responded this Saturday and she said "oh we have to find her a dress today." And that is what she did, after many many many attempts she found the "wow" dress for my very picky daughter! She was not overly pushy, very patient, never made us feel rushed and after some trail and error narrowed down the type of dress my daughter really wanted. She knew we had no time and was determined to us what we needed. Thank you Natasha!!

Absolutely the best prom, pageant, quinceanera gown boutique in North Florida. The staff is TOP NOTCH. We have worked with Marylou and her staff on a number of occasions and they always knock it out of the park. They have an enormous selection of the most beautiful gowns and if you still arent able to find that perfect gown, they will have it ordered for you asap. Absolutely LOVE this boutique and would recommend anyone to come in and see for yourself why I think this dress shop is one of the Top 2 gown shops in Florida.

I have just received my Soulmates C1067 Amethyst 3 piece dress from you. I tried it on and it was absolutely perfect!!! I LOVE it and can’t wait to wear it to my son’s wedding on August 30. It is slimming, a fabulous color, elegant, and a perfect fit (although I may want to take in the armholes on the tank just a WEE bit)!!! The look on my husband’s face when I tried it on, said it all! He fell in love all over again and it is our 38th year anniversary!!!! Thank you for your wonderful service and quick delivery!!!

Here is my feedback in one word “Fabulous”. More specifically, my questions/concerns were answered promptly and courteously, shopping online was fast and simple to follow, my dress was delivered as promised and exactly as described on the website. Best of all, when the dress I wanted was no longer available I was given advice on an alternative dress which I actually like more than my original choice. Thanks so much, I will definitely be shopping with French Novelty again.

I had been unenthusiastically searching for a mother of the groom pant suit for about 6 months when I stumbled upon this company. I was looking for something in womens and tall, a combination never easily found. To my delight I found a dignfied, classic design in the perfect color of ocean breeze. The material was elegant. The staff made sure the pants were long enough. It fit!!! I am ecstatic. And relieved. Now all I need to find are dress sandals in a size 12...

I got my destination bridal dress from here (a short lace dress by Mori Lee Affairs) and absolutely loved it on my big day! If youre looking for something different and nontraditional French Novelty is sure to please, there are also tons of other beautiful prom, pageant, and bridesmaids dresses there as well! It makes me wish that I had known about this place back in high school! A true one stop shop for all of your formalwear needs.
