BCBG MAX AZRIA – Final Cut

There were two customers in this store today and i was one of them. Apparently the employees were overwhelmed by the crowd because neither one of the ladies managed to greet me or ask if i needed any help. Moral of the story– i took my money elsewhere.

This store is the best! I always find something good when I shop here. The associates never seem to let me down! They will bring you new sizes in the dressing room, suggest new things to try on and give you help you find accessories to match what you are looking for!
I am very impressed by the tactfully honest advice of the sales associate that was helping me today! Something diff my look quite right on me and she not only let me know that it wasn’t right for me! She also helped me choose something more appropriate that looked a million times better then what I had picked out! When I come here I feel like I will always be able to find the look I am trying to achieve with the helpful advice from sales associates who know what they are doing. That’s always important!

I love BCBG final cut. I’ve gone next door to bcbgmaxazria and due to poor manners by an elderly sales rep i refuse to go back, but that’s a different story.
Here’s my past long term relationship with final cut. I’ve been going here for years and the customer service was great. I own 50+ dresses, and half of them are BCBG branded. They always have new workers, so my stylist has been changing constantly. They used to write down my info/​size/​and what article of clothing I’m interested in; and when a new a shipment arrives they call me with deets so I can get first dibs or when there’s major sales! That, I love! My wallet – not so much.
Well I arrived at final cut after being hiatus for months just to browse. I was promptly greeted by a sales rep and she advised me everything is half off store wide. Of course, now I feel like a kid in a candy store! As I start to browse and grab stuff, Zack comes and asks to start a fitting room for me (this is common). I say yes, and finally going through racks after racks, I scored 2 dresses and a peplum top for less than 50 bucks! Although the customer service was good, I will say it used to be way better. The reps would check up on me in the fitting room and ask if I need a different size, or even try to find suggestions as to what would look better, etc. That part didn’t happen today. So compared to a five star treatment til today – it was a 3.5÷4 star, but I still love you Final cut!

My other half decided to partake in this strange social tradition whereby she and some guy she really fancies throw a huge party where everyone wears really fancy clothes, walks down an aisle in a pre-​rehearsed fashion, talks about how much they love each other, and crap like that– at the end of it, I heard this guy refer to her as HIS other half. What? I’m confused.
Anyways, I needed a fancy dress, as I was to play the role of «bridesmaid» at this expensive party. I was asked to please purchase a dress which was not more than an inch above the knee, backless if possible, blush-​colored, with interesting fabric, and «no cleavage.»
«Dude, can you be more specific about that? You know it can be hard to hide these.»
«You don’t have to hide them, just, don’t be a whore.»
«Okay. I think… I think I can handle that.»
Final Cut was the first store I walked into, and I walked straight up to the perfect dress. After a quick selfie-​session in the fitting room, I asked the clerk if she could hold the dress for me while I awaited a response from the bride. She paused for several seconds before saying, «Sorry, we don’t do holds.» Well, they had a few in my size, and it was expensive, and there were no returns, so I decided to take my chances.
I went around the rest of the mall and got myself into a bad mood from trying on too many clothes before my friend texted back, «I love it! Did you buy it yet?»
So I come back here, take the dress up to the cash-​wrap, and say, «I’ll just get this.»
The clerk says, «What? But the whole store is buy one, get one free!»
My dress was the most expensive item in the store.
I’ve just been given a license to pick out anything I want for free.
It probably took me a good ten minutes to fully absorb this, and another thirty to pick something out, because I had to make sure to get the most bang for my buck, of course.
The store was really clean, and really well-​organized. I liked that the sales-​lady took my dresses to my fitting room as soon as I picked them out, and remembered my name when I came back after a few hours.
I did NOT like when her response to some rich-​looking lady asking her to hold several items was, «Sure, I can hold them until the end of the day.»
Excuse me? Didn’t you have a no-​hold policy two hours ago?
I was also asked no less than three times whether I was sure that the dresses fit and were the right size. Okay, fine, she caught me– I purposely bought the dresses too small, knowing I would lose weight before the wedding (which I did). But do you really have to keep asking me whether or not I tried it on when you’re the one who set up my fitting room for me and took the things I didn’t like directly out of my arms a few minutes later?
I was a sales-​person for eight years myself, so I have to take away a star for consumer discrimination, but other than that, this place rocks.

Great selection and great staff. The sales lady named Mac gave me the warmest greeting and complimented my outfit.
They had 30% off all of their dresses and some as low as $ 11.
Def check it out.

This place is the main reason I like going to the outlets again. I didn’t even know they had this store until recently. The girls are all so helpful and friendly. They give you sizes while you try stuff on, and were just really great in general.
You will find some cute dresses at some super affordable prices. Most of the clothing was classy, and then there were a few that were for more casual days. Check this place out before heading over to bebe (although I love that one too), because you will find something for that upcoming special event or just for anytime.

I love BCBG in general. I have a hard time going into one of their stores and NOT purchase something.
I needed to find a last minute professional outfit for a business trip. When you’re rubbing elbows with CEO’s you NEED to dress the part! Even though I came here close to closing time. the 2 ladies there did not cop a «I just wanna go home» attitude. They were extremely helpful. One found a dress that I actually bought and is now one of my favorites! It was reasonably priced too. The racks are based on price and then organized by color. Because it is «All Sales Final» make sure you inspect your clothes BEFORE purchasing.

The best Final Cut I’ve been to so far. I love that each rack is categorized by price and even more so the great selection of clothing suitable for every season. Living in the bay, most fall and winter clothing can be used year round. On this particular day I was able to stock up on a couple of $ 49 coats, $ 19, $ 29 and $ 39 sweaters and tops. They also had a 2 walls of bags and plenty of summer and evening dresses.

BCBG Max Azria — Final Cut is a hidden gem. The only trip worth forging for in Folsom.
I was drooling over this one particular dress the same way I drool over an insanely hot and shirtless Jacob from Twilight. You say yes to the dress even if you have to make it fit! All their dresses as well as the sales associates are sweet and classy. The racks are marked by price points starting from $ 19 and up. The dressing rooms are not well lit. Expect to use the mirrors outside. I felt like I was trying on clothes for the next chicks boyfriend. So will you. I scored a strapless piece worth $$$ for only $ 49 :D
Mark my return with more cash to spend, an intention to check out their shoes and clutches, and a lantern or just better underwear to flash the nxt boyfriend.

This store is hiding right next to the original BCBG outlet. I’m going to guess that the Final Cut products are much older which explains their cheaper price points. The store is merchandised by price, so one rack will be all $ 19, $ 29, $ 40 … etc. There’s something for every budget. Right now they even have sweaters for only $ 9. Each time I’ve gone here at least once a month, there is all new merchandise. I’ve gone here three times so far and each time I find something cute to buy. I also like that they don’t seem to have a limit of how many items are allowed in the fitting room. There are always at least two associates working there and they always provide good service. They visit your fitting just enough to see if you need additional sizes but not to the point where they are checking up too often. My only complaint about the store is that the fitting rooms don’t have lights so you’re basically dressing in the dark. If you want to see how your outfit looks, you will have to go to the one mirror that is outside of the fitting room. Which is fine unless you’re shopping on the weekends and everyone else is fighting for that same mirror. Seriously BCBG … add some lights in the fitting rooms already.
