Elegant Designs

We were visiting from Seattle and didn't have much luck at home, so we decided to stop by here. My daughter tried many dresses on and he was so patient and offered to check stock on sizes and colors so we could take it home the next day. The visit was a success and she is so excited to wear the dress to prom!

I visited this boutique while searching for a dress for a friend’s daughter. We had driven to several locations and other dress boutiques were overpriced. At the end of our search we decided to stop at Elegant designs and wow!!! What a difference in price & customer service!!!
The owner was very friendly and patient with us, he took his time showing us all of our options until she fell in love with one dress. We left the boutique super happy. After that experience it was my daughter’s turn her High School year dances started and we went on a journey trying to find her a dress I decided to stop by this boutique after she was done visiting all the stores she had in mind. To her surprise she found the perfect dress and was also very happy. Not only are the quality of dresses amazing but there is so much to choose from at the most reasonable prices! Our experience here has been one of the best!!!! The owner gives you the most pleasant experience while you’re there and you will most definitely not regret visiting this cute boutique. Look no further! Don’t waste your time and money. This is the place to find any dress for your special occasion. Love this place♥
And for the girls not wanting to wear the same dress as others for prom or other dances this place takes the name of the school down and promises not to sale same exact design to anyone in that school. So peace of mind you will be the only one wearing a beautiful gown!
I give this place a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐star!!!!

Absolutely the best place to shop for a prom or formal occasion dress! They look small but can order a dress from a ton of catalogs very quickly. The owner is fabulous at helping you pick what color and style would look best and then tailors it to perfection. Love, love, love this place.

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!! He does all the tayloring himself within 24 hours, he is so nice as well, definitely recommend this place to everyone, even if you are out of state he can send you the dresses.

We were out shopping for prom dresses and had been to a few shops before we came here and so grateful we did. There are lots of dresses to choose from and my daughter is very picky so we were there 3 and half hours. Hasib the store manager or owner has the patience of a saint! My daughter is petite so every dress had to be pinned or adjusted so she can really get a good idea of how it would look on her . Hasib helped my daughter with every dress . Making adjustments, looking for colors or alternate dresses. Not just my daughter but all the girls coming and shopping for the variation occasions. He stayed pleasant and so kind to all of them. Dress and after dress . Not only that , but he also does the alterations himself if any adjustments need made. In addition, if there's not a dress in store you like , he has catalogs you can order from. If you're looking to shop for dresses for any occasion I definitely recommend here! Also almost all dresses range from $50 to $250 which is way better pricing than the other stores we went to. All post a picture from her prom with an update.

Took my wedding dress here for alterations!! My dress was a ordered two sizes too big by the shop I bought it from to fit my body which is shaped like a cello. Before finding Elegant Designs I had taken it to another highly rated alterations place in San Diego. They told to reconstruct the dress and keep details of the design was “too difficult” of a job. They turned me away and suggested I take my dress back for a size smaller to try and squeeze into. On the other hand, Hasib the owner of elegant designs is an absolute angel - he did a fantastic job and at a very honest price. Thank you Hasib!!!

I came to get a dress for my senior prom and I could not be happier with what I got! The manager was not only nice and friendly, but also super knowledgeable about what styles/colors are trending. He would make sure each dress I tried on fit to my liking by immediately pinning any loose straps and fabric right away, and he was very helpful in finding the dresses I wanted from the magazines he has. It’s amazing how they don’t require an appointment to be made because, from the way he styled me as well as other customers that were there, he made the whole experience feel really customized!

I was also pleased with the range of styles — all the dresses that I had seen from online stores on google were there because apparently this store stocks them?

The only downside I guess is that if the dress you chose was one on display, you are technically paying full price for a pseudo-used one. Since many other customers had tried on the dress I chose, I could see little signs of wear and tear on the mesh part of the corset. (the buttons at the back were also very worn down, and he said he would replace them with a stronger fish and hook tightening agent, but that also came at extra cost)

The dress I picked was marked for tailoring, and I have full faith he will do an excellent job :)

I hope this helped at least a little — again, high praise for customer service and care; I definitely had a very positive experience!

This is the 3rd time I am buying dress from Elegant Designs, if you haven’t visited this boutique I highly recommend you to get your next dress from them. Great design, Excellent customer service. Hasib the owner is a very kind man that help you to pick your elegant dress.

Definitely will come back again.

Amazing variety in dresses, customer service was the best. Prices were extremely reasonable. Definitely recommend.

I was so lucky to have found Elegant Designs. Their selection is amazing, customer service is fantastic. My daughter was looking for a Prom Dress and we had visited many stores in San Diego but they all had the same boring styles. Elegant Designs has very unique and beautiful dresses. I highly recommend this place.

Amazing Dress and Formal Designs! Next to Bakery for treat after, and other side is Salon to get you made up for events/weddings...Florist & Jewelry Store in same little mall complete the event.

This is the best place ever, I came here for my wedding dress alterations and hasib gave me an amazing price and did great work. I had a lot that needed doing on a really intricately designed dress, and everything just looked so perfect and like the dress just came that way. Just a wonderful experience :D

Elegant Designs is a San Diego treasure! If you are looking for the perfect dress for a special event, wedding, or formal, look no further than this wonderful boutique. Hasib, the charming owner, will help you find the perfect style from his large array of beautiful dresses- and If the perfect one isn’t on the floor, he will find it for you in his many catalogs of dresses and have it for you very quickly- sometimes even overnight! He is also an amazing tailor and will make sure your dress fits as though it were custom made for you. If you have a gown bought elsewhere, he will fit and expertly tailor it as well. I have four daughters and he has seen us through many homecomings, proms, and sorority formals! Every experience here is a delight and I am so happy this wonderful business is here in San Diego!

I went here today to find a prom dress and this store does not disappoint!! The store owner was amazing and extremely helpful to me! I found my dream prom dress after only three dresses! I can’t wait to pick it up and feel like a princess! If you ever need a dress for any special occasion, THIS is the place to go!

Hasib deserves every bit of these 5 stars. His dresses are beautiful and affordable. He works quickly and very effectively. My wedding dress turned out better than I could have imagined! I ordered my dress and it arrived the next business day. He tailored my dress in just a week and it fit perfectly. For any upcoming bride I urge you to try his shop. When you compare his prices and quality to anything else this is a no-brainer! Elegant designs is the best dress shop in San Diego.

I have 10 days to find a prom Dress for my daughter and all I had was Social media as resource lol Thank god..! I looked up prom dress in SD and Elegant Designs came up! And sure enough his dress were Elegant. The only problem we ran into was finding something her size. She wears an Extra small but the owner promised us to get her dress with 24 hours from a catalog he had. Thankfully my daughter got to try the dress she feel in love with in a different color. Call it luck or excellent service. It was fast and easy.

This Place is amazing for Wedding Dress Alterations! They did a beautiful job EXACTLY as we discussed!! I have one more small small alterations but he said that he would fix it on the house. Very good customer service, lovely store owner Hasib! Would highly recommend to anyone who needs a quality wedding dress alterations place with great prices!!!!

I needed a bridesmaid dress altered (it needed to be hemmed and the straps taken in). Hasib is wonderful, the dress fits absolutely perfectly and I got it back within a week! The alterations at Elegant Designs cost half of what was quoted by the bridal shop where I bought the dress. Other girls in the bridal party who had their alterations done elsewhere said no one would help them fix the straps, but they were no problem for Hasib! I highly recommend him and will be going back the next time I need a dress altered.

We went everywhere looking for the perfect dress, and within 5 minutes we found it here! The owner was so helpful and so patient and so very very nice. I will gladly recommend this place to everyone I know. Thank you so much

I got my beautiful wedding dress just the same day I was there. I love multiple dresses on my first time look and the owner was so friendly. I love my dress it’s beautiful not to expensive. Highly recommended.
