I absolutely love this place. I originally stumbled in a few years ago. I had flown into New Orleans and had a few hours to kill until check-in time, so wandered around for a little bit. This place looked pretty cute so I thought I'd pop in. Three hours of dress up later (sorry husband, lol), I went home with my favorite dress of all time and a cute sweater to go with it (and spiderweb fishnets, which have long since passed. RIP). I'm a plus sized lady and it's hard to find vintage inspired clothes that both fit and are flattering. I wish I knew who my original salesperson was because she was absolutely amazing. It's still hands-down the best shopping experience I've ever had. Three years later, I'm wearing that dress and sweater and wonder if they still carry the sweater, so I can get one in black. I checked out their website and didn't see it, so I figured I'd take a shot in the dark and message them. Well, what do you know. They still have it and in my size, no less. Erin was an absolute gem. She sent pictures and answered all the questions I had. I can't wait to see them in store once all this pandemic craziness is over, but it's great to know that they're online and so responsive to any questions I may have. Once again, even distant, they made the shopping experience one to remember.

Love the vintage look VERY OVER PRICED the clothes here fit me very well because i have a small waist..i love the vibrant colors in the fabric...said to be 100% organic and reason for high pricing...none the less the print work of clothes was lovely and i felt comfy and vintage in the wear . I had a lovely blonde assisting me with the vintage wear and her help with accessories was appreciated..she was also helpful in helping me get a discount on my 1000$ shopping for just 8 to 13 items....and they offer shipping as well...i loved my items and my blonde attendee who made the shopping experience more easy...there website is down witch qas annoying because i love to online shop...but other than over pricing one dress over 200 to 300$ as to why i gave 4 stars the clothes and service is spectacular...

I would give zero stars if I could. This shop disappointed me and every person I was shopping with. They do absolutely nothing to make you feel welcome. The second I walked in with my family, we were YELLED at to remove our backpacks. Automatically, we were put off but chose to continue shopping because the dresses were cute. Nobody paid any attention to us until they realized they might actually get money from us. As soon as something was purchased, they couldn’t get us out of the boutique fast enough. This boutique needs a serious reality check. You do understand you are not the only place in Washington state that sells cute clothing, right? The least they could do is have decent customer service to compensate for their overpriced clothing.

If I was to open a shop & create my dream closet, it couldn’t be more perfect than this boutique. Hands down. Every shoe. Every hat. Every parasol. All the jewelry and accessories annnnd ALLLLL. THE. DRESSES!!! I had the most exceptional service from Erin, a fiercely fabulous redhead slung up in a swanky retro dress and hair of her own, with zero pressure. I’m a professional jazz vocalist specializing in Sinatra era swing. So, needless to say, I LIVED FOR THIS PLACE!!! If you’re looking for ultra glam retro clothes in New Orleans or the gulf coast region of the United States, you have found your spot!!! A fully curated vintage/swing era diva Mecca!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

Amazing shop with fantastic customer service. Erin was wonderful. She quickly retrieved any dress I had interest in and placed them in a dressing room for me. She also selected some additional items to try on based on the selections I made. She help to accessories the outside, ensure I had the dress on correctly and showed me if anything was out of place. She had great knowledge of the designs and was very quick, and accurate with size help. I'm and XL and 8 of the 9 or so dresses I tried on fit perfectly and where extremely flattering. Making the final decision on what to buy and what to leave was the hardest part.

  • Julia Zakaryan

The blonde sales person was so helpful! I found my dream dress and dream accessories. Everything in the shop is so unique and they shipped out my items to me, not only from the New Orleans store but also their Seattle location. Prepare to spend at least $150 on a dress that's high quality, unique, and fun. I wish their lingerie section had more of a selection and that there were even more shoes to pick from since I couldn't find my perfect pair. I can't wait to visit again. Also, their hours have changed but they're not updated on Google. I believe their definitely open Friday and Saturday right now.

  • Geaux Saints

Buyer beware. They take clothing from places like Retrospect, out of Australia, and put their label on the dress. I bought a dress from Retrospect for $88.66 plus 19 dollars shipping. Diva Dollz has the same dress for $228.00 plus tax!! Buyer beware and check out other places before you buy the same dress for more than double the price. It's fine to sell other brands clothing it's not OK to remove their tag put yours and mark up the dress hundreds of dollars!! Do not do business here and support this behavior. Save your money. Buy 3 dresses from the real maker for the price of one from the imposter.

  • Ripley Cronin

I needed a dress in a pinch because my husband and I were on vacation and I forgot my dress back home. I'm not even a big fan of dresses usually (just needed one for our dinner date), but the styles suited me and the patterns were fun. The stylists were super helpful and attentive. We were in and out in half an hour. The prices were a bit higher than I'd like, but I'm pretty frugal and typically don't buy dresses unless they're on sale anyway. The great customer service and swift shopping experience made up for it.

  • Cliff & Katie Collins

Super fun place to grab a souvenir- love buying dresses in different cities to remind me of the trip. Cozy vibe and staff is very informed- they know every dress, every maker, which sizes run small- which lengths for which shoe type and will help you accessorize while trying on. I chose a beautiful Scottish plaid to honor my heritage, and she (Erin, I believe?) help me accessorize with a belt that my grandma Millie might’ve worn back in her day. Can’t wait to rock that dress.

  • liz abbey

Lexi is a literal angel. I have an important event in 3 days and was in a panic over not being able to find a suitable dress despite hours and hours of searching. One hour with her in Dollz and Dames and I have TWO full outfit options. Plus a third she special ordered because my size/style/pattern combo wasn't yet available. I could not be happier with my purchase and the entire experience. She was so kind and helpful, and the dresses are gorgeous. Thank you for saving me!

  • Lindsey H

Stopped in while on vacation, wasnt expecting to buy anything just window shopping. Was blown away with the dresses they had, super affordable. With help from the clerk we actually picked out 2 beautiful dresses for my wedding next year. Got my wedding dress and reception dress, super happy! They clerk did a great job finding things I would like and that would fit me and my style. Can't wait to go back next time we are in town.

  • Robyn Moore

I love this Boutique, retro handmade dresses for all sizes including the curvy real women! Halleijuah! Staff are friendly, atmosphere is laid back, clothes are trendy, store set up is whimsical meets 50's flare and locations central to other trendy shops and local business'. Downside: Be prepared to dig deep into your wallet- Retro look doesn't come cheap.

  • Tricia Wells

Found this shop wandering around on vacation and absolutely fell in love with the dresses! I bought a red dress and a red skirt along with some sunglasses and my friend also purchased a dress. The material is soft and comfortable. I especially love my skirt I wear quite frequently! Will definitely stop there again next time I'm in New Orleans!

  • Mitzi Fredrick

Small, blonde salesperson helped me to an amazing outfit for my mom who swing dances. She had to guess at size of dress, sweater, and belt using a picture that I had. My mom lives out of state but we decided it would work and, if it didn’t she could send it back. It was PERFECT! Thanks for such help and I will be shopping there many times.

  • Margarita Ibbott (DownshiftingPRO)

It's funny, I take pictures of everything and write reviews all the time. This store wanted nothing to do with that. It's too bad, I have a friend who would love some of the dresses we saw but alas, I cannot show her. We were very interested in the dresses and accessories but found them pricey. The shoes were lovely.

  • Stephanie Hudson

Very cute little pinup boutique shop! It has a variety of clothing pieces and accessories with a nice array of unique patterns and solids. The shop owner is extremely helpful and very kind! The sizes do go into plus, I noted at least up to 3X but wasn't paying attention for further. Highly recommend checking it out!

  • Stephanie Wood

Stumbled upon this shop after breakfast at the Ruby Slipper, and figured I'd peek in for a look at some of the pretty outfits...half an hour later I walked out with a a brand new dress! If you're in the market for some high quality clothing and want the guidance of friendly, seasoned salespeople, look no further!

  • Taylor Brione Ballard

Absolutely loved this store. The ladies were the nicest ever and super encouraging. My friend bought a super cute skirt from here as well. I know people think its expensive but all of the clothes are unique and most of them custom made so I expect them to be a little more. 5 stars ladies!!

  • Courtney Berry

Love the dresses here! Great selection, unique prints, and knowledgeable staff! Erin was great, she helped me find my size and was attentive during my whole shopping experience... even while helping assist other guests as well. I will definitely be back every time I visit New Orleans.

  • Rachel Lopez

I follow them on Instagram. I drove all the way from springdale arkansas to New Orleans to visit the shop. There was a sign on the door that said it was closed until Saturday. No notification or post on Instagram. Waste of parking and gas. They need to be more updated on Instagram.

  • Evelyn Flint

This store is so much fun! Such beautiful and one of a kind dresses and shoes and jewelry. I didn’t buy anything (yet) because I was on a vacation budget, but I‘m glad I grabbed a business card because I saw this dress there that I still can’t get out of my head three weeks later.

  • Sherrice Hays

Loved this place I love vintage/retro style dresses. The have great options and the sales associate was very helpful offering different styled dresses. My hubby bought me two beautiful dresses. The next time I'm in New orleans I will definitely pay them a visit.

  • Fran Peña

Very bad and unprofessional customer service. I ordered my shoes on 3/31/22 and still have not received them and today is 4/8/22! I've emailed and called on several occasion and no answer. I needed my shoes by Friday the 15th. I'm going to contact the BBB.

  • Melissa Duplechin

Very fun atmosphere and products. The dresses are high quality and fun designs. The shoes and accessories are also unique. The staff was very helpful and great at helping us find the right product for us. The prices are very high but the product is good.

  • Jamie Lynn Alford

The ladies who were working were absolutely the sweetest most helpful people I have ever met. They helped me pick out the perfect shoe and then steamed and stretched it to fit me perfectly. I can't wait to shop with them next time I visit New Orleans!

  • Ashton Badeaux

The employees were kind and very helpful. They helped me determine the size of the dress I needed and they helped me style my dress with a cute belt. All of the dresses were gorgeous. I had a wonderful experience at this shop; I definitely recommend.

  • Tristen Spears

Worst shopping experience ever. I had just made a purchase of a vintage jacket at wild life reserve and thought I'd swing over to dollz and dames to spread a little money to another local business. They were less than welcoming and refused

  • Rhonda Phare

We walked into this darling boutique and found a lovely dress and belt for one of my daughters. Spent $204. After checking out I found a cute little bracelet for $28 that I bought for myself. Left the store went shopping in the area- upon

  • Alex Yang

We came in to the store to get a dress. We were greeted very warmly and helped with clothing selection. Grabbed a beautiful dress. Like most stores, I do recommend that you wear nice clothing before walking in to receive the best service.

  • Steve Nieckarz

My wife is inside but I'm outside with the cashola as I felt unwelcomed inside the store by the shopkeeper. My wife bought only one item and said the shopkeeper was bossy and turned shoppers away from items they wanted to purchase. Pity.

  • Nicole Shiba

Horrible experience! This company has no consideration for their customers. I purchased a dress that needed to be resized. When the dress shipped to my home it was 2 sizes too big despite the measurements being taken in store. When I

Cute style, helpful staff. 40s style dresses, shoes, accessories and jewelry. Good AC, high quality dresses, but high prices to match.
