Lestan Fashion Headquarters

My soon to be Mother-In-Law suggested Lestans and she was correct in going there. I was happy overall. To begin, Eddy the sales representative who helped me was so very friendly and helpful. But I need to mention I picked a wedding dress out, I had second thoughts on the dress. I had to go back because I changed my mind on the dress I picked. When I returned the bridal women, along with my soon to be Mother-In-Law, soon to be Sister-In-Law and good friend, and I cannot forget my daughter, I was able to pick the Perfect Wedding Dress!!! I am so happy going to Lestans, and finding with my perfect wedding dress. I would recommend Lestan for your dream wedding dress. Happy Customer Pat :) more

Magnificent company!\r \r Great quality dresses, great employees and just overall a great place. \r \r my whole family got their gowns here for my wedding... in addition to my bridal party. \r \r I would recommend this shop to any and everyone. more

Lestans Wedding Shop is amazing. Honestly, as amazing as it comes. There are some very helpful women working at this place and they really helped to make my experience what it was. From the very moment I walked in, the receptionists were very welcoming and they directed my bridal party and I downstairs. When we went downstairs, there were SO many dresses. I went in there with pictures, but when I saw all of those dresses, I immediately knew I wanted something different. The bridal women were all very patient and honest. I'm very happy with my decision and with Lestans. more

The worst!!! Crooks, liars and thieves!!! \r They took our deposit, never ordered my wife's dress and wouldn't give back the deposit. \r Even after court, they agreed to pay me back $400 by the 15th of July 2013 and still they haven't sent me the money. Now I have to file a judgment against them. \r NEVER EVER BUY FROM THESES PEOPLE OR THERE STORE!!! more

so happy with the service i got here. i got my wedding dress and my mothers dress and im happy about the way everything went. they have great customer service at this shop and great dresses as well. more

i am so grateful that i found this place!! i went to some other stores and none of them were the slightest bit as accommodating as the women at lestans bridals. i am pickyyyyyy to say the least so i tried on at least a dozen dresses before i found the perfect one! and voila there it was. the most amazing dress looked even more amazing on me and im just so happy!! thanks lestan\r more

Honestly do not waste your time here unless you love stress in your life. My wedding day is March 9th 2012 however to play it on the safe side, we told them March 1st is the day. We told them that we will be leaving on Feb.28th since the wedding is in Jamaica. The bridesmaid dresses were picked out & paid for on the 1st week of Oct. 2011. Nobody from LESTAN's contacted my bridesmaids, we had to call them every 3 days to check on the dresses. We went to the shop to show face & to see what the HELL is going on & the manager was such a rude old lady!! She had the nerve to tell me I should have told them Feb 28th as the day & not March 1st!!! I told her if my dresses aren't in by the 27th, I want a full refund & I will see her in court!!! Thank God our real date is March 9th but still my bridesmaids work & go to school so they dont have time to drop everything at the last minute due to LESTAN'S lack of customer service... Dont shop there! Good thing I got my wedding dress from Macy's... more

Lestan's is by far the worst business ever. They think that they can treat their customers like crap and get away with it. The manager yelled at me because they did not explain their deposit policy to me. They accepted my initial deposit and now they are requesting more money even though the contract says the balance has to be paid when the dress arrives at the store. They don't even have the dress in the store and they want more money. All they do is play games with brides when this is the most important day of a women's life. TO ALL FUTURE BRIDES OUT THERE....DON'T SHOP AT THIS PLACE UNLESS YOU WANT NON STOP STRESS AND NO PEACE OF MIND! more

My daughter was the most easy going bride. We went back for several fittings up until the day before the wedding. They messed up the beading, and the bust of the dress didn't fit well. My daugher said "" I'll take it, I don't have much of a choice and you wouldn't be able to see it from the brooklyn bridge"":) She is really as UNbridezilla as one could be. What totally infuriated us and pushed me to write this review was, even though we paid for the dress in full, Lestan would not release the dress until we signed a form saying everything was perfect. This store is disgusting. more

Buying a dress at Lestan was a wonderful experience. First of all, the service was fantastic. All the ladies who work here are friendly and sweet. They immediately put me at ease, as buying a dress can be nerve-wracking.. Not only are they kind but they are very patient and they are willing to work with you to get you the exact dress you are looking for in style, color, and price range. The seamstress does really top-notch work, and keeps working on your dress until you are satisfied. Might I add, that the store hours are very convenient for someone who works during the day, as they are open late into the evening. Altogether, my shopping experience at Lestan was wonderful from the moment I walked in to get ideas, to the moment I left the store with the beautiful dress of my choice. It is so important to be comfortable when you are buying a dress. That's why I owe my thanks to the friendly and kind women who work at Lestan, and that's why I recommed this store to anyone who needs a dress for any fancy occassion! more

I'm currently living overseas, so after getting engaged, I went online to find a wedding gown. I came across Lestan Bridals. I emailed them and enquired whether they would be able to deliver a gown I had seen on their website, to Taipei, Taiwan. They assured me, that yes they would be able to deliver it - in 3 months. I placed the order, and hoped for the best. The first clue to the awful service was that I had to email them to get an order no and delivery date...and even then it took more than a week to get back to me. Finally! Eva from Lestan replied via email that I would be receiving my gown around Jan. 20, 2011. Jan. 22 I still had not received any gown, nor an email from Lestan explaining as to the reason for the delay. I finally phoned them, from Taipei! They were very rude on the phone, and at 1st didn't even have any recollection of the order # after I quoted it. After finding my order, I was informed by Tammy, that they are still waiting for the dress from the designer, and that it should arrive within 10 days. I emailed them after 10 days, got no reply. I emailed them twice more, still no reply. Finally I phoned them, again! and was informed that they still haven't received my gown. My problem with this is - why not just send the customer an email and inform them of any delays, instead I had to email/ phone them?! We finally received an email on Feb 11 that they had received the gown, but that we had to make arrangements for it to be delivered to Taipei. What? After complaining to Tammy, she told us that they would ship the gown to us, so she'll need credit card details. The quote she gave us for shipping was double what it should have been. We decided to just have the gown shipped to my future in-laws in NC, and have them ship it to Taipei, at least then we won't be over charged. As of today, my gown is on route to Taipei, and should be arriving next week, that makes it more than a month delayed after the delivery date Lestan assured me it would arrive here. I will NEVER buy anything from Lestan again, they are rude, and have 0 customer service! Nor would I recommend them to anyone. They are not ""professional in every sense of the word"" as stated on their website. more

Not a review, but a question. I drove by the other day and saw a ""For Rent"" sign on their window. Are they still there? Did they move? Thanks. more

My experience from beginning to end was amazing and very personal. the whole staff made me feel as if i was a family member. they made my wedding dreams come true and then some. from the sames assoociates to the seamstresses, they all made me feel so special. i would not changea thing. I am forever humber and freatful for everything the ladies did for my girls and i. thank you VERY VERY much!!!!! more

This is the worst most dingy place I have ever been. I live in brooklyn and wanted a Maggie sottero dress. I called the store asked if the dress was available for fitting. I was told yes and made an appointment.After taking the day off and getting all my family to come when i got there, the lady told me she never told me the dress was there and that she told me it would be there in two weeks...if in fact she told me that why would she make an appointment for me to come fit a non-existent dress. I was so mad!...if you consider going here I would reconsider the service is terrible and the sales people are rude! she had the nerve to stand there and argue with me even though she know she lied! more

LESTANS, BEST BRIDAL STORE EVER!\r \r Im the type of person who is very picky about buying dresses but, the ""Lestan Girls,"" took away my anxiety. As soon as i described the types of dresses i was interested in, I was shown several gorgeous dresses which looked amazing on me, even with my picky taste. Although i just walked into Lestan to look, i bought my dress without even a second thought. I wasnt pressured of forced to buy the dress which was very delightful. My dress arrived IMMEDIATLEY and the seamstress did a phenomenal job on my alterations. The staff at the desk were very accommodating and helpful when they made my fitting appointments. I would definitley, without the slightest doubt, buy ALLLLLL of my dressed at Lestan Fashion Headquarters from now on. I would recommend 150%. I am a VERY satisfied customer! more

I had an unexplicable experience at Lestans Fashions Headquarters. \r To Tammy and the wonderful LFH staff\r THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHINGGG!! i am truly greatful. From the moment i walked in, everyone was willing and ready to help me find my perfect dress. All of the ladies were very very nice and friendly. i felt the sincerity in the atmosphere. the dresses in LFH are some of the most beautiful dresses ive ever seen in my life. The staff there is extremely knowledgeable about their dresses. From the minute i told the ladies what i wanted, they knew exactly what i described. When i found the perfect dress, i ordered it and it literally came in the blink of an eye. My experience at Lestans Fashion Headquarters was nothing short of amazing. Because of Tammy and the rest of the Lestans staff, my special day was perfect and i couldnt be any happier.\r THANK YOU AGAIN LESTANS. \r I WOULD RECOMMENT LESTANS FASHIONS HEADQUARTERS TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE AND I CAN GUARANTEE YOU WONT STOP SMILING!!!!!! more

Attention all brides!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE shop at Lestans!!!! Not only is it a shop that is a one stop shop, it will definitley make your dreams come true. At Lestans, I found and bought my perfect Cinderella bridal dress. The bridal staff knew what styles of dresses complimented my figure and made me look beautiful. They were VERY honest and helpful. The bridemaids staff were just as marvelous. They found me the most amazing dresses that were perfect for my bridesmaids who range from different shapes, sizes and skintones. They helped me find my pefect dress and colors. The mother of the bride/ groom staff were wonderful as well. They helped my mom find a dress that looked gorgeous on her and she blended in with the bridal party without looking old fashioned. The ladies at the front desk were magnificent. They were very very very accomodating when it came time to schedule appointments and fittings. Everyone at lestans played their own role in making my dreams come true. I had my perfect Cinderella wedding. All brides out there, if you want your wedding to be all youve ever dreamed of, shop at lestans!!!!!!!! more

I went to Lestan (and ended up ordering my dress) before reading all of these negative reviews and felt compelled to write. When we pulled up and walked in, I was pretty dissapointed since the place is not all that great looking from the outside. However, there is parking right out front which is nice. While the interior leaves much to be desired in terms of decor, I thought the selection of dresses was great and the prices excellent. I ended up getting a beautiful Maggie Sottero gown for a great price. The woman helping me was really nice (so maybe ask for Pat) -- she brought me dresses herself, helped with putting everything on and game me accessories to try on with the dresses so that I could get an idea of the complete look. Sure, the place is a little old fashioned in terms of decor but the prices are good and the service is honest (she was really honest in telling me what I looked best in without regard for the price) - -no they dont run around you in circles but I thought the service was great and loved the dress I picked out. No one asked me about my budget, I just explained what kind of dress I liked and then asked the prices when trying on. I also ordered a veil there. I think it's a worthwhile place to go for beautiful dresses at good prices. more

My Wedding is August 23,2008. Lestans was the only place that I went to get all my dresses. I have over 21 dresses that I ordered from them. The salespeople were so helpful especially Valerie, Eva, Collette(just to name a few.) The salesassociates were really great with their ideas, help and even extending themselves to get me samples of the dresses that I wanted that they did not have in the store. They even went the extra step and got me a sample of my wedding gown, I am a big girl and usually big girls don't get samples in their sizes to try on but because of their consideration and foresight, they ordered the sample in my size. All my girls dresses came in and they were from Three different designers and they all got fitted with no problems. The seamstress there are so knowledgeable about how to cut a dress and not all of my girls needed alterations but the ones that did had no problems and all were very happy with there alterations. My dress also needed minor alterations and just to name one particular seamstress, who was so incredible and does remarkable work, Josephine, who I would so highly recommend. She made me feel like a princess in my dress and her ideas and suggestions were on point. She knows her business. I have read other people remarks about Lestans and I feel like I don't know what they are talking about. My mother always told me to get respect you have to give it and in retail people tend to forget that salesassociates are people too. These ladies are so helpful and friendly and My Matrons and I end up Closing the store everytime that we are there, we have such a goodtime and are so comfortable there. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND LESTANS TO ANY BRIDE WHO HAS SENSE ABOUT HER AND UNDERSTANDS THAT IT IS NOT ONLY STRESSFUL ON OUR END BUT THEIRS. TO TERRI, VALERIE, EVA, JOYCE, JOSEPHINE, COLLETTE, AND ALL THE OTHERS THAT I DID NOT GET A CHANCE TO NAME, I JUST WANTED TO SAY FROM MY HEART THANKYOU FOR GIVING ME THAT EXTRA SMILE ON MY DAY. more
