Dress Barn

I finally had the chance to drop by this store and I was really «wowed» from the moment I walked in. The place was spacious, organized and clean. I think this is the best Dress Barn store I’ve seen so far. There were three ladies working at the time, two of which were working the cash registers. One of the ladies was working the dressing rooms and she was so nice. When I was in line about to pay, one cashier made eye contact and gave me a smile. Unfortunately for me, I ended up with the one that looked like she was not happy to be there. She was the youngest of the three. You could not get her to smile. Her personality was so cold it made me uncomfortable. I couldn’t wait for her to finish. I just kept thinking how rude she was. I don’t even remember hearing her speak… No thank you nor have a nice day… I could have given this store a 4 star or even a 5, but that lady’s customer service turned me off. Now I’m not sure if I want to go back.

Dress BARN??? Dress for animals? Country type of clothing? Casual? What could they mean by that name?
So, after driving by the store, not paying any attention to it, because the name didn’t really justify what’s in it… I kept driving by it. Until, recently I was next door, and this time, walking by it, I had enough time to actually take a peak inside. Normal looking clothes! Custom jewelry! Hats! Scarks! wow! Now, we’re talking!!!
I walked in, and started browsing. I loved their jewelry selection. What’s even more impressive is, they had large sizes too. Not impressive prices, but, hey… it’s a barn! Expensive Barn!

Yes, it looks like a store your grandma would love to shop at. And she would, with good reason. I only came in here because I saw a really nice sweater on the mannequin in the window… For my grandma. What really caught my attention were the prices. They’re not exactly 99-​cent price tags, but for the unique and superior quality, (think New York & Co. mixed with Stein Mart mixed in with a smidgen of JCPenny), you can walk away with some really great bargains. Sweaters, blouses, and dress pants run from between $ 30-​$ 50. And they have some nice jewelry and purses for sale near the registers, as well.
They carry anything you could possibly want for a quick and affordable last-​minute gift for that awesome lady in your life; provided she’s over 25.

I love to shop here. There are clothes here size 4 – 24. Many different styles to choose from. We just had a VIP Party here and had a blast! There were about 13 of us girls shopping and trying on different things. The customer service is OUTSTANDING! The girls here are very friendly and personable. They help you out when you need them too. Talk about feeling special… They write your name on the dressing room door so you can keep the same room while you are there. If you like trendy modest cute clothing… This is your place! Thank you Holly and Maricella for a great shopping experience!

Every so often, I found myself in this store and be able to pick one or two outfits. Reasonable price for rayon and poly material; no silk or high end material. Style is more conservative than hip; if you are in the area; drop by and take a look; you may walk out with a happy face and new outfit.

I have never shopped at Dress Barn before last week with my mom. Since we were shopping at Ross (in the same plaza… and plenty of parking in this plaza), my mom thought we should check out what Dress Barn is. I was actually surprised to see some pretty cute and trendy adult clothes. But the name, Dress Barn, is really an off– putting name and makes me think of clearance bin, reject clothing for some reason. thus never ever shopping at a Dress Barn before.
But anyways, the prices are definitely a bit more than both my mom and I wanted to pay, so we did not end up buying anything. But yes, there was definitely a lot of cute clothing (also cute things on their website). If the prices were just a tad bit cheaper, than I would become a regular here.

Good place to shop for dresses and shoes. Unfortuatly not everyone that works here has good customer service. The tall african american woman, Shellia I think, ignored me 3 times! when i was looking for a pair of shoes that I saw online. Thankfully the other young lady, Marsella was awesome! She helped me from them, when they did not have the right size she ordered the size I needed from another store and said she would call me as soon as they came in. She was very patient even though her other co-​workers basically left her to help everyone in the store. I will come back and ask for Marsella to help me — Shellia you can learn from your co-​worker!

There’s a gal at work who always looks fabulous, fashionable and professional and she’s been telling me she shops at Dress Barn. Like others, the name was really hlding me back from going in. So glad I was bored last Friday evening and went inside — $ 226 later I came out with 2 pairs of great fitting jeans, 2 sweaters, a tank top and a blouse. I’m a believer — great clothes, great prices.

Don’t be fooled by the name of this store! I am a size 14, early 30’s, and found 10 shirts and a dress here. Please if you are a size 12,14,16 GO TO THIS STORE! I was THRILLED to find a replacement store for my former favorite store, Fashion Bug. They have absolutely beautiful sweaters and dresses. If I needed suiting I would probably go back for more. Beautiful suits and separates, like dressy tanks. I loved this store so much I opened a credit card here and I never do that! Customer service was good too. Loved.

Nice store REALLY BAD NAME. The merchandise is hip and well priced. The store is well laid out. The word Barn is offensive to a woman of ANY size. I really can’t see myself purchasing clothing from a store with the word BARN in it. A BARN is for animals, not people. The company that owns the Dress Barn should seriously consider renaming the store. It’s not that hard to think of a better name.
3 Stars for merchandise and customer service.
Minus 2 for the awful name.

This a pretty good place to pick up a quick outfit if you don’t have time to get to the mall. I suggest coming back weekly because their selection changes quickly. The prices are reasonable. They have a big discounted selection.

Aww, c’mon people don’t be hatin’… DB is alright. I have to admit I saw this place for years and never ventured in. Dress and Barn really shouldn’t be in the same sentence… but a friend recommeded it for a particular item I was having trouble finding, so I gave it a try.
I’m a big girl (12 – 14), and I find things fit me here. No, its not the most cutting edge fashionable place, but I’m not into the whole hoochie-​mama look anyway. The clothes here are modest.
The casual stuff is just Meh… I have had better luck with dressy dresses, for a formal event or a wedding. Their prices are really good.
Their sales are good too.
The only con I could think of is the annoying coupons, and rewards card. I hate that sh&t…I always lose them, or forget to bring them, and it’s irritating to have to carry that stupid card with me.
Other than that, the DB is fine for those of us «on the wrong side of 40».

LOVE the clothes, love the price, hate the service, which is why I knocked down two stars. Many – most – of the workers are exceptionally rude and act as though I’m inconveniencing them just by coming in. When I call the store for any reason, I’m usually told that there are customers at the desk, and I need to call back later. That’s really bad for business, because all I’m hearing is, «I care so little about you that not only am I going to ask you to call back when it’s more convenient for me, but I can’t even be bothered to put you on hold.» Is it laziness? Disinterest? I don’t know, but if I were the manager, I’d be taking these people to task. It’s just not a good business practice to be that rude to customers.
That said, I do love the clothes. Some of them do look like they’d work better for older ladies with a penchant for excessive frills, but for the most part, they’re very attractive. If you’re willing to be ignored a few times by those meant to be helping you make purchases, it’s still a good place to go.

Apparently the east Pasadena location closed, so I’ll be heading to this one because this Dress Barn chain sells one item every female should know about … store brand, inexpensive hose that wear and wear and wear forever. Hold up better than anything else I’ve ever found, come through the washing machine beautifully in a net bag, so I go buy these things dozens at a time and then don’t have to think about it for another year. Seriously. Good quality, low price.

unfortunately I was not able to give this company ZERO stars, because that is what they deserve.
They are expensive for what you get, and the workmanship is poor at best.
The sales people are nice but are overworked and they are hard to find. As far as being wheelchair accessible, well, you can get in the door with a wheelchair but you can’t maneuver through the racks of clothes.
Good luck!

Not sure what the other poster is inferring to when saying «lonely teachers.» However to that poster I say… «Hello I AM A TEACHER, AND WHAT A „SLUR“ YOU PUT OUT!» So you know, your remarks have nothing to do with a CONSTRUCTIVE review of this business OR ANY BUSSINESS.
Now AS TO THIS BUSINESS we SHOULD BE talking about here, DRESS BARN, I have had ONLY GOOD experiences with it. In fact, my 25 year old daughter LOVES THIS PLACE TOO. They have GREAT DRESS but also other GOOD QUALITY clothes as well, in great patterns, colors and style. It is a large store with a LOT OF selection. And if you want accessories, shoes and jewelry, you can find it there as well. Dress Barn has great sales and mark downs too,
Both myself and my daughter bought our wedding outfits for my son’s wedding here. We had MANY compliments at the wedding. They thought we had purchased them at David’s Bridal. However, we got the outfits for MUCH LESS then David’s Bridal would have sold them for, that is for sure.
Don’t take the previous poster’s advice. Looking at her photo she most likely would do better by shopping at «The Gap» or «Old Navy» where they sell GREAT JEANS. :)
