I went into Helene's in East Providence to find a wedding gown, as well as bridesmaid dresses. I had shown the owner many pictures of what I wanted for both. When my bridesmaids were shopping they decided on two different dresses. I asked the owner which colors I should get based on the pictures, as well as making sure the dresses looked good together. They were supposed to be a very light blush pink. When the dresses came in one style of dress was the correct color, and the other style was an extremely bright bubble gum pink. As soon as I saw them I told them the color was wrong and I hated them. The worst was the reaction that they are "close enough" and "in the same color family" and I will just have to get used to them. So discouraging and upsetting to have a reaction like that from them, in addition to now having three bridesmaids who are in the complete wrong color!
Also, as far as the fit, four of the dresses were too large, which is usually expected. But my matron of honors dress was two sizes too small! She was measured and said the sample dress fit perfectly. They told her to order a dress two sizes smaller!
It's been nothing but a headache and I honestly don't recommend Helene's to anyone.
