Editorial Review for Les Habitudes – by Constance Tillotson
In Short
The hand-sewn one-of-a-kind dresses featured here are imported from England and Belgium, and they and the store evoke a sort of Merchant-Ivory-meets-Academy Awards vibe. Princesses can choose multi-layered, hand-embroidered lace dresses, while slinky babes can pour themselves into sexy, body-hugging gowns. Brides are taken care of with sublime white and ivory gowns and the greatest selection of ivory slippers to match. To cap off the royal look, it also sells jeweled tiaras.

I found Les Habitudes accidently on a shopping trip to L.A., exploring Robertson Blvd. I immediately fell in love with the store. The gowns are beautiful and the staff was very accomodating. I was not looking for a wedding gown, nor did I see any first off. I saw beautiful eveing gala attire and day wear that is well made, one-of-a-kind, and versatile. I have been to Les Habitudes four times and I have bought an item each time. I now have four pieces in my wardrobe, all of which are timeless and versatile. April, always helps me in selecting an item within my budget, and shows me many clever variations on how to wear a wardrobe piece. She also is creative in choosing accompanying pieces to allow me to see how to wear an item with exisitng closet items I have at home. We also always have fun trying on the very expensive clothing and she treats me as if I were a celebrity. I keep my purchases to my budget and conisder each piece a wardrobe investment. I have never been dissappointed. Each L.A. trip is not complete unless I visit Les Habitude AND I ALWAYS purchase one item. To date I have a wrap cashmere sweater, a linen blouse with a corset back, a beautiful "Grace Kelly" skirt I wear to weddings and most recently, a grey wrap skirt that April showed me how to wear at least six different ways. All the clothing is versatile, timeless and a statement. This is a must visit and ask for April.
Pros: One-of-a-kind wardrobe investment purchases
Cons: None

I have searched high and low for a wedding dress that is different, romantic, and feminine without looking like a typical bride and I have found the store that does it all and more!!!! I came so close to not going to this store because of the poor reviews posted and I am glad that I did not heed to those opinions. First of all I had a great experience in this store. It was the best out of all the other bridal stores I went to. The sales staff really know what they are doing. The wedding section is all ready to go and you don't have to order. I was used to trying on huge samples that were 5 sizes too big and dirty. Here, they have your size, you can see how it will really look and if you need alterations they pin it on you A.S.A.P. The sales staff is really nice and friendly and it's low stress. The range in price is good so you don't have to go high end if you don't want to. I told my sales person what I wanted to spend and she listened and kept me where I wanted to stay. I was shown all kinds of ways to wear the bustier and romantic skirt I purchased for my wedding because I wanted to wear it after. They have beautiful leather jackets and different designers I haven't seen before. All I can say is, check it out yourself and don't always believe what you hear or read.
Pros: unusual romantic, feminine clothing you won't find anywhere else
Cons: looking for parking
