Marilyn deserves 5 stars! She assisted my bridal party in finding their style and size and was very kind and attentive the entire time, asking about my wedding and colors and venue. She was great!However, our experience on the bottom floor shopping for my moms mother of the bride dress was terrible. I had an appointment from 3-5pm to look for my wedding gown but found one the day before. I called in the morning and asked if it could be a bridal appointment and for my mom to be able to try on dresses, too. They said thats fine, I can still come 3-5pm.We get downstairs and look around, my mom starts trying on some dresses and Pat approached us, not to ask if we need help, but to say they close at 5. Her and Ali stayed 15 feet away from us the entire time, staring, making us all uncomfortable. When my mom grabbed a couple more to try, we heard the women talking to each other saying theres only 10 minutes! even though it was 4:45 and again, you scheduled me until 5pm.We couldve bought 4 dresses here but now I dont know that wed go back.
Went here to buy my reception dress which was on the Bridal floor and as soon I walked in the door lady stopped me and asked me what I was doing there and I had explain I was just here to but my reception dress that’s on the bridal floor and she proceeded to tell me that I need to make an appointment to go to the bridal floor even to just buy a dress and told me to go to the lower level to which is were prom dresses and mother of bride dresses are and so I looked just to see and then I walked around and they had no white dresses. Then the sale lady down there rudely asked me what I was looking for and I explained that I’m looking for a all white dress for my reception and she rudely asked if I even looked through the whole store. Then I explain to her that my I just wanna go to the bridal floor to buy my dress I know the size and everything and she told me that a possible bride and her party could be up there and they don’t like when other people are up there. There was a possibility of a bride? She didn’t even know if anyone was up there she was telling me that to even to buy a bridal dress you have to make an appointment. I’m so disappointed in the service I received. Will not be wasting my money here
While Ive always enjoyed shopping at the Winner, today was an exception. My daughter had an appointment today from 3-5 to get bridesmaid dresses for 4 women & a mother of the bride dress for me. Marilyn on the 3rd floor was a wonderful and very pleasant woman. She got the girls dresses & had helpful advice. Once they were done, she said we could finish our appointment in the basement getting the MOB dress. Pat immediately told the bridesmaids that the store was closing at 5; it wasnt even 4:30. She started talking to another women Allie about me taking dresses into the dressing room when the store was going to be closing. Then one of the women came to my dressing room to let me know they were closing 5 minutes & asked for anything that needed put back. Both Pat & Allie stood a little way back from the bride, bridesmaids & dressing room staring & complaining about us being there so close to closing even though we had an appointment. Neither woman asked if we needed help or what we were looking for. Im shocked at how childish these employees were behaving especially when we were simply trying to shop during our appointment time.
I was recently at The Winner shopping for bridal party dresses. The bride had an appointment from 3-5. Marilyn was fantastic and deserves 5 stars! She was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and answered all of our questions. She didn’t rush us at all and we tried on a lot of dresses to find the style we were looking for.We went to the lower level to find a mother of the bride dress at 4:25pm. (Mind you, our appt is until 5). The salesperson, Pat, made it a point to tell us they close at 5 and hovered over us the entire half hour offering zero help and making rude comments with the other salesperson, Ali. We felt very rushed and ended up leaving without purchasing anything. They could’ve made a great sale but instead cared more about closing. Very disappointed in this experience.
What a lovely store that is timeless. Lots of unique dresses and many other fun items. I highly recommend it!
While I did not purchase a wedding dress from this store, I love The Winner. When I was in high school, we always came here for our homecoming and prom dresses because their selection was so fantastic. You could find a dress no matter your budget. When I thought about my wedding dress, this was the first place I thought of. The wedding floor was clean and the dress selection was great. I had an employee with me the entire time and she was wonderful. I did leave the appointment with two dresses I loved but wanted to think on. I only went with another store because I fell in love with a dress. I would recommend The Winner to any future bride or high school student.
Went here with my sister and her bridal party yesterday and the bridal department was extremely rude and unprofessional. They repeatedly told us that we only had until 6 pm to look when we scheduled and appointment for 4pm. Not a single person was willing to help us or the bride. We waited about 15-20 minutes before anyone acknowledge that we were there. Then we looked for about 10-15 minutes before we just left because no one was willing to assist us. This visit was overall a disappointment and we definitely will not be returning.
Me and my friend came all way from ohio to find us the perfect homecoming dress for our first dance. none of the dresses fit us. of course we figured not all would since we are both bigger. none of them fit. and most of them were either ripped and falling apart. not worth like $100-$400. will not come again.
Had a great experience wedding dress shopping here. Our consultant was very friendly and helpful and I appreciated her patience as I tried on quite a few dresses. Lovely selection of options. Overall a great place to find a dress!
I recently got my wedding gown, veil and headpiece from the Winner. I cant say enough good things from my experience! Mary was my consultant each time and then helped some with my bridesmaids - She was absolutely wonderful & made the time I spent there a great experience. I would give this 5 stars, however when we first arrived for my bridal appointment, we had arranged to do a bridesmaids appointment and there was lots of confusion which led to some of my girls not being able to watch my try on dresses. Other than that, we had a great experience each time.
Tons of dresses and a wonderful staff. Especially at checkout with a young lady named Rylee. She was very personable and sweet.
So, my experience here was a bit of a rollercoaster, but it turned out well.I found my wedding dress here. We ordered the dress and it was promised in June 3021. The promised delivery date came and went with no word. When I called, the ladies said it was not in. They did track it down and found out that the distributor had given my dress to someone else whose wedding date was earlier than mine. This caused a three month delay and a lot of anxiety for me knowing that there are supply line delays due to COVID-19 and workforce shortages, etc. This wasnt The Winners decision, but they did not seem surprised. I had no warning this situation could even happen. My advice if you want to avoid this, just tell them your wedding will be on an earlier date.The pros: lots of choices at decent prices, military discount, knowledgeable ladies who know the inventory (I wanted fit and flare and they didnt try to push other styles on me or make me find the dresses myself like some other stores had done), and they took care with the dress when it finally arrived. They also fit me in on the Saturday after my dress arrived even though they were fully-booked. I did really appreciate that. Also, they referred me to someone located close to me (in Cleveland) who would be able to tailor the dress at a more reasonable price than I was preparing to pay.The cons: I had to chase down all info about where the dress was and when it would be available for trying on and pick up. I did promptly receive return calls when I reached out first, but I am not sure anyone would have called me when the dress came in, etc. I am not a pushy person and waited a few days to give them time to process incoming orders, but I did get very anxious after the initial 3 month delay. I know it was not The Winners decision to do that, but they did not seem surprised that it happened either. So, I was a little put off that they didnt give me a heads up that this was possible. They could have saved me a lot of anxiety I had tried to avoid by looking for a dress as early as I did.Overall, I am happy, but I couldnt give 5 stars because I did think the comminication could have been handled a little better.
Had an opportunity to try wedding dresses on with a lovely lady named Mary. She was incredibly helpful and made my first experience a comfortable and productive one. Scheduling was an easy process. Worth the trip. Explored the other floors and discovered the wedding dress section was much better staffed.
This retailer is one of the greatest places for woman to buy a wardrobe, its worth it .They have a mens lounge there back in the day you would to be able to have popcorn draft beer watch football games 3-4 hours while your wife and kids go shopping fantastic concept I loved it
Wonderful classy store with gorgeous selection of elegant sophisticated styles. Our go to for wedding and special occasion. Good selections.
Selection, quality, atmosphere, courtesy....lost qualities ordinarily but not here. Exceptional.
Very disappointed. The woman that ask me if she could help me find anything was less than helpful. I showed her a picture and asked if they would have anything similar and she said, well I would just look at the blue dresses and see if you find anything . She they just started walking around around and eventually asked someone else. The selection is nothing like I remember, there were very few to pick from.
Had a wonderful bridal appointment at The Winner. There were tons of dresses in my size/budget, I had plenty of time to try on everything I wanted to, and Mona was so helpful.
Awesome store, many top-rated dress designers, helpful and patient staff.
Couldnt find what I wanted. I just wanted a long casual summery dress. Only had few, not my taste the lady sent me to prom section really Im 71 . Also not much petite sizes.
Can not express to everyone the immense love I have for this store and the wonderful bridal experience I got with themAs a little girl from Cleveland Ohio we would drive to the winner and the shoe store across the street for many special occasions because no sales tax is worth the two hour drive honestly some of my favorite childhood memories were these days spent in Sharon shopping like crazyWhen I got engaged I knew I wanted to come back to the winner for my dress and honestly both trying on dresses and coming back to pick up my beautiful gown were just special and wonderful days I’ll never forget all the women were so sweet and patient there was no pressure or expectations they even offered to let me wait a few days and call them with my final dress choice because they knew I’d driven from out of state but once I found the one I didn’t even need the wait time we got it right then and there they were so quick the dress even came in earlier than expected and when I came back to pick it up they took so much time letting me put it on snap more pictures and finalize all my extra bits too it was just a wonderful experience that I’ll never forget and I couldn’t be happier that I chose to make the drive back to this special store to pick out one of the most important dresses I’ll ever wear ❤️
Went to The Winner today and found a few things to try on and the sales lady was helpful. I went to the cashier to check out and there was a gentleman checking out ahead of me. When he was done the cashier said to me that someone behind me had prevoius been in line and told me I would be after her. So I stepped aside. This woman that was checking out was so rude to me. She stared at me like i was a beneath her. I could not believe it. Dont think Ill be going back anytime soon. They can keep their old hateful peach colored hair patrons.
Wonderful selection of dress and bridesmaids dress and mother of the bride dress prices were very good
Lovely place to shop for formal dresses
Just found the perfect wedding dress for my granddaughter. Barbara was the perfect dress advisor. Highly recommend
Dresses were very dated, not a good variety of sizes. Spent 15 minutes then left. Salespeople were friendly though.
Beautiful store, kind staff, and wonderful selection of gowns.
So many beautiful formal dresses for proms/homecoming. I take my daughter here for every formal event and she always finds a beautiful dress.
This was the first time being there to find my daughter a Prom dress which was successful. Thank you for the ladies that helped us. We will be back next year.
Lots of great finds and we found the best homecoming dress. the sales ladies are always nice and very helpful. we found great accessories too. my daughter and I always have a great time there together, I love seeing her in all the spectacular pieces she tries on. we have always left happy=)
We are blessed to have a dress shop in our county. I don’t always find what we are looking for but try this local business first.
Drove a few hours to view their bridal selection, only to be treated like we were unwelcome because we didn’t make an appointment.
One and Done! My daughter is not a shopper, and shes more comfortable in breeches and boots. She came home with a beautiful dress!
Been there 3 times to buy gowns in the last 4 years. Today I bought 2 gowns and a panpt suit. Love the large selections for womens gowns.
I have gone to the winner for both dances and was absolutely thrilled. As a plus size girl I didnt think I could find something beautiful that made me feel confident. At the winner I was treated amazingly and have found something each time. I cannot wait to go back for this years sophomore hoco.
Wonderful service and friendly people.
This place is amazing I got 3 dresses and 1 coat from them love love love this store we go there everytime we come to Sharon pa ❤💖 customer service is great friendly and helpful
HUGE selection of dresses in all sizes. Very helpful and friendly staff.
Some took our appointment. They squeezed us in. Please! Not a lot of selection. Salesladies unknowledgable if stock and ordering. More hype less expectation
Great place for clothes for a Wedding
Found the perfect dress,,price was doable
I was looking for a gift for my friend and I was so happy to find so many things to select!! This is a great place to shop. And the sales persons are fantastic!!!
They always have something for every occasion.I was surprised there was no mens department.
My mom took me here to get my prom dress in 2016! So beautiful, such nice people, I felt so beautiful.
They have a good variety of dresses but unfortunately almost all were damaged and still had a price tag of $300+ . Also had barely any smaller sized dresses.
Easy to find the right dress for my son’s wedding & during a pandemic no less!!! The price was so good I could easily add an outfit for the rehearsal as well! I will be back again for sure!Thank you,Kathy Roncone
In pandemic times lots of selection and colors
Beautiful. Dresses👗
This was the third salon we tried looking for a wedding gown for my daughter. We had two other shops booked for later in the week which we promptly cancelled! Renee was our consultant and was very helpful. She explained the process and guided us to the racks. Then we were left to look and pick gowns we liked, which she took to the fitting room. She also brought in several options but was never pushy and never went over budget. We were never rushed and when we narrowed it down to two, she added the veil and showed how it would look bustled. She also agreed with our choice and it was less expensive than the other gown! She wasnt about the upsell! The prices were awesome! The gown we chose us not only beautiful and perfect in every way, but it was under budget! The veils and hair accessories are also extremely affordable! We said Yes to the dress!
Shopping for a wedding dress with my daughter was never so easy! Renee was our consultant and she was fabulous! So friendly, easy to work with, listened to everything we had in mind and she knew her bridal inventory ( which is huge). She, as well as the other staff made this day such a fun and wonderful memory. Thank you to everyone at The Winner!
Tons of dresses! Very nice ladies who help you find that one dress. Thank you
Allways have Beautiful clothing love going thier and thier workers are allways. so nice and they great you with a smile
Amazing selection of dresses and prices are very good. The customer service of the employees is excellent and they make great picks! Glad I went and will go again when I have an event.
Literally horrible on anything above a sixteen .. my daughter left humiliated because of that.
Excellent customer service. Great styles and sales..A must see!
We were only there for a short formal dress. It cost $240. We love the dress. The winner does have every dress/gown you could ever want. BUT, we got absolutely no help, except at check out. I also dont think their prices are any better than any where else.
We only went in here to look at the building but everyone working was very attentive and whoever buys the dresses here, they have great taste. There were sooo many beautiful gowns and dresses
I wouldn’t even give them one star but I had to in order to post. Be very careful what you sign! I put a $600 dress in layaway and prom was canceled due to COVID19. When putting the dress in layaway “Billie”( her real name told me to sign this little paper agreeing to the loss of the $5 layaway cost should I change my mind). What she didn’t say was they would also keep my 25% deposit. I have never seen a layaway system work like this and I think it’s BS. Jokes on them, I have 3 more daughters and I will NEVER buy so much as an ear ring from that place.
What a cool place! My bridesmaid took me here to look for my veil. I wanted something long and sparkly. This place had a HUGE selection and I was able to find a veil that I loved for a great price. When the veil arrived, I had the option to send it via mail or pick it up. I live 1.5 hours away, but decided to pick it up. I highly recommend them. I also loved the pianist who played while I shopped. Such a cool idea!!Credit: Loren DeMarco PhotographyNote: I got my dress at Koda Bridal. I did not know about The Winner prior to getting my dress. It appears that they have a great selection, too. Not sure of their plus size selection.
Love The Winner. Theyve got so many sections, with so many style options. And, their prices are fantastic. We go here for all of our special clothes. They carry lots of brands and styles, which arent available in my area. So, shop at The Winner.
Always find what I am looking for. Very helpful clerks. Many many styles to choose from. I was there to get Mother if the groom gown.
So let me say first off that I am very pleased with The Winner. I went shopping there for the first time with a friend and a couple of family members about a week ago. As soon as we walked in, the staff was super friendly and explained to us what was on each floor and what entertainment would be there and when. I personally went shopping for a wedding gown, and happily picked the one. I want to give a shout out to Bridal Consultant, Renee Blake. She was awesome, super friendly, nice to talk to and she made the experience fun and exciting. Im glad she was the one who helped me pick my dress! All in all, I highly recommend The Winner and I plan to shop there in the future! ❤
Helped us right away, until we found the perfect dress, very nice people
So many beautiful dresses to choose from and even when shopping on a budget! Shout out to Barb for helping us!! But, most impressive is military discount... It speaks volumes about a business that is so grateful to our military men and women that they would provide this. We will definitely go back.
I have been to the Winner years before with my oldest daughter and always had a great experience. Well this evening was the same. The sales women, wish I would have got their names, were exceptional. They went out of their way to help my daughter find the perfectly fit Christmas dance /semi dress. They went above and beyond to bring in dresses for Reyna to try on. They were very knowledgeable on what style dress would accentuate her figure. My second daughters first high school formal dance shopping was a success this evening! I was also super happy to see that they give a 20% discount if you show a valid military ID. Thanks to the staff at the Winner for making our dress shopping a great experience. Prices are very reasonable. Selection is awesome, many styles, lengths and colors to choose from We will be back! (Another daughter hits high school next year)
I was in earlier today,and the sweetest woman helped me in the basement with Mother of the Groom dresses. She didnt pressure me when I told her I was nt planning on spending so much for a dress, and showed me the only dress I needed to try on. Thank you Janeen!
Went shopping for a homecoming dress. Great selection helpful staff.
Love this place, but some of the staff really arent very helpful.
I came here to buy my wedding dress. I wasnt sure if I wanted traditional or not. The wedding floor had a great selection, but I ended up buying my dress from the destination section. I got one in blue and I know it will make our destination wedding just perfect. The sales people, in both sections, were helpful and friendly and they did not pressure me into buying until I was ready. Definitely have recommended this store to others that I know or have met that are getting married
Great place to find special event attire. Staff very helpful. Nice selections
Walking out of the elevator on the 3rd floor was quite magical. They werent busy when I was there trying on wedding dresses so I had so many people helping and encouraging me. I found my dream dress in a matter of 30-40 minutes. Love this place so much. The people were fantastic and the dresses were beautiful. Im so happy I decided to go here. Im most definitely coming back to get my bridesmaids dresses here!
Barbara was so great at helping me try on and finding dress! So grateful for my experience here. Definitely recommend! ♥️
Wonderful experience here! Moana helped me pick out the wedding dress of my dreams. She asked all of the right questions and was patient and kind as she found dresses for me to try on. She gave honest opinions and made me feel right at ease. And the price was crazy low! Any brides in the area need to go here and see what they have to offer!!
It was so nice to have so many prom dress options under one roof! It makes shopping so much easier than trying to visit 20 different small boutiques or buying online without trying the dresses on. Crazy amount of choices and something for all budgets! I love this place!
So many options and styles even for those on a budget. The consultants stay within your budget not right at the top. The consultant I was helped by was very nice, very helpful, and not pushy. Found my dress there!
My daughter and I went to get my mother of the bride dress. The selection was AMAZING and the prices ranged between $95 up to $250 or more. The average price was around $175. We were on all the floors and every one of the sales ladies were friendly and very helpful. I was very impressed with the whole store.I highly recommend taking the journey if a formal dress is in your future. I loved going through all of the prom dresses and the majority of the prices were similar to other shops but just more of a selection. prices for the prom dresses were about $250 to $600. now of course there were some amazing bargain racks but not a huge selection of discounts.We did not go to the wedding dress floor although we did peak in...it was very glamorous and the dresses looked amazing but I didnt see the price range.Hope if you go your experience is as awesome as ours was!
I had the best experience purchasing my wedding dress at The Winner. The consultants were incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. I would absolutely recommend Renee to anyone. She was so awesome to work with and provided useful feedback and dress options. Overall, The Winner had a great selection of bridal gowns to accommodate all budgets and sizes.
My sister just found her perfect wedding dress here. The staff was very attentive and accommodating, I would recommend them for prom dresses too as Ive gotten mine here before. They have a large variety in many sizes.
I have gotten my prom and homecoming dresses here before and now I found my wedding dress! Staff is absolutely wonderful on the bridal floor! I went to the Winner the first time I started looking for a dress and the experience I had was hard to forget. I came back and was able to find the gown of my dreams! I had an amazing consultant who went above and beyond to make me feel special! Not to mention their prices are absolutely hard to beat, absolutely stunning gowns for under $2,000, YES PLEASE! Highly recommend them for all special events!
We had the best experience here! They have an entire floor for bridal gowns, sectioned off by size...but dont think that the size limits what you can try on! They even have a clearance section! Ive known 2 brides in the last 2 months that found their dress here! The service was above and beyond! Completely worth the drive!Will update when the dress comes in, as I have seen reviews saying the dress they purchased was not identical to the dress they got...dress arrives in December 2018!
Was here with my wife my Granddaughter and her boyfriend. My wife was helping our granddaughter to pick out a dress. Nice atmosphere and very helpful staff. Was a pleasant experience. Also if your coming from Ohio there is no sales tax on clothes in PA.
Chantal was so kind and cared enough to help me for two and a half hours! I was always worried that I was there too long but she never pressured me and helped me look for the perfect dress, sash, and veil. The dresses are stunning and the staff are friendly. I highly recommend going here to look for the dress!
The staff assisting in the dressing rooms all seemed a bit unpleasant, and it was a weekday afternoon (so they werent exactly swamped.) Other than the staff being sourpuss, there is a great selection for prom, and the prices are good. You can find something in the $100 range. FYI, they do track the dresses, and wont sell the same dress to the same high school prom. They dont sell shoes, but there is a great show store in walking distance. My daughter found the perfect dress and I was very happy with the price.
I purchased my wedding gown at a third of the cost of my local bridal shop. The staff was wonderful. They didnt have alterations staff but suggested a local person. I also purchased my veil and my flower girl dresses here as well for a fraction of the cost elsewhere. LOVE this place!!!!
Very nice people.
Winners.. was highly recommended for high end fashion.I was pleasantly surprised by a Beautiful woman at the main entrance!!We learned.. to never judge a book by its cover that day!😁She told me about the sales And the other floors to help assist my shopping experience.Had a fabulous time there. Even had a picture taken with the beautiful lady at the front door.Please tell her Yvonne said hello!!
Mary Weaver helped my daughter find wedding gown. She was awesome. You can tell she likes her job.
VERY disappointed with their decision to keep everyones layaway deposit, despite the fact that my daughters prom got CANCELLED and were going thru a pandemic!! I asked to speak with a manager/supervisor and AMANDA came to the phone stating if we did it for you, we would have to do it for everyone... I said EXACTLY...this pandemic is NO ONES fault, and their decision to benefit off people that are already struggling, is HORRIBLE, and that I would tell everyone I know about this!!! Just plain bad for business...you would think that a business that has been around as long as they have, would care more about their relationships with the public instead of making a profit off of everyone at this most difficult time!!!!! VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTING!!
Very friendly and qualified staff! Met all my daughters wedding needs.
I just bought my wedding dress from there and Renee was amazing. Very professional and helped with sizing and ordering. I had an opened mind so it helped alot.
Everyone thinks its super expensive found decent dresees for my sister in law wedding. Her gown. And the veil. My mom also Found her dress as mother of the groom.
Their layaway terms are absurd!! If you put a dress in layaway then change your mind before even removing the dress from the store, you should be able to get your money back!! Not only does the customer lose money but the store has 1 less dress on the floor to sell. Very poor business tactics! 😡
1st time ever being there. Love love the store. Staff is so friendly and helpful. I got my Wedding dress here.
Best place to find a dress!!! Staff Is beyond helpful and very nice
My daughter and I have purchased most of our formal gowns from the Winner over the course of at least 15 years. The service has always been excellent and weve found their pricing to be very competitive and the quality of the dresses has been excellent. We recently shopped at The Winner for a very special event and we could not have been more pleased. The Gown was spectacular and the service was very attentive and professional. The staff went overboard to make sure we were satisfied. We are very happy to recommend The Winner to all of our friends and associates.
I won! Seriously, finally found the Mrs. A dress here which is no easy task.
