Alfred Angelo Closing? UPDATED - THEY ARE CLOSED!

I think their dresses are over priced, TBH, and that ran them out of business.

I bought a spring 2017 Mori Lee for less than the cost of some of the dresses I tried on at AA, and much nicer quality.

AA had some beautiful dresses too, but I was shocked when my Mori and the Maggie's I tried on were in the same price range.

Again, I wouldn't count on those refunds from a company in bankruptcy. I feel so sorry for those of you having to deal with this!

You can contact a bankruptcy attorney for some basic advice in an initial consult.

I am seriously praying the seamstress has my dress, as that is all I was told when I called in right now. I am seriously in a freaking panic!

@Chrystal - sending good thoughts!! Keep us updated!

@CountingDowntoMrs - Will do! I am praying that she has it, she just told me she will need to check her storage and boutique and because of that she will notify me tomorrow. Wellllllll, if she doesn't have it, because as she put it she is only "90%" sure she has it, then who do I call.. GHOSTBUSTERS?! The stores are closing tonight at 6PM!!! This is horrible...

This is true. My mom ordered her dress from there. She got a call yesterday saying it was ready, then a call today saying to that they were going to ship it to her because they were closing. Apparently, they are already closed. The receptionist said she would be there until 8 today but the doors are already locked.

It's true. My dress arrived in the store yesterday. They called today to inform me that they'd be shipping it because there's absolutely no pickup after tonight at 8pm. Doors will be closed tomorrow. She told me that the employees just learned of this today! They've kept it on the low because the website just advertises a sale.

I called back to ask what they'd be doing with the inventory. She said everything's 80% off.

@Chrystal, can you go by the store to see if it's there? If it's not, it's probably with your seamstress

I made another post later this afternoon (couldn't find this one on mobile at the time), and they ARE closing at 8pm tonight. I got a call from my local store to tell me that my bridesmaids dress appointment for this weekend was being cancelled.

@LibraryBelle, my mother and sister are heading there now to pick up her dress because they also had hers and my veil and never let us know.. it was only because I called after seeing This! Fingers crossed.

Just saw this online

Crossing fingers!

I feel so bad for brides who are now having to deal with this! I LOVED my AA experience and got a ton of compliments on my dress.

Just emailed the contact listed on the screenshot from Jessica W. Let's see what happens.. this has me so upset!

I feel so horrible for being happy that I picked up my dress just 2 weeks ago. So many people are out of a dress AND money! So many employees are no longer employed. I was on Twitter reading how some women are in a parking lot crying together because they couldn't pick up their dresses since their store doors were already locked up. My only reaction is OMG! How can they do this to so many people!! No product and no refunds. My heart breaks for all those effected by this horrible news :'-(

@DesertFox, it's awful! My associates (who have been wonderful to me during this process) were in the back crying and then tried to give me a happy face while they packed up my things. I feel soooo bad for them, and even offered to write a letter of recommendation for the manager. I'm also heartbroken for all the brides out there without a dress. Weddings are so ridiculously expensive and every penny counts... losing your dress AND your money... absolutely awful of AA corporate!!

@Chrystal, glad your family was able to go to the store to make sure your things are accounted for!

@Courtney, YESTERDAY!! wow...nothing like by the eleventh hour! I'm glad you will be able to get your dress! Fingers crossed it's perfect

Bumping to hopefully avoid more duplicate posts.

IF YOU HAVE ORDERED A GOWN AND WANT TO KNOW THE STATUS, email: ********@*************.***.

Any idea if you can still order gowns from non-alfred angelo stores? There are a few bridal shops that carry AA dresses, but they aren't AA stores...I'm in love with their Disney collection and I'm sort of panicking that I'll have to settle with something else or buy a dress without trying it on first...

@Katie - I doubt anyone will know the answer to that for a while. The company can restructure, but who knows. Your wedding is so far away; I wouldn't be panicking. Disney may also contract with someone else. You have tons of time to see what happens, or find another beautiful gown elsewhere!
