Women’s Special Occasion & Boutique
Business Description
WOMEN'S SPECIAL OCCASION & BOUTIQUE - BILLINGS, MT
A turn key operation.
Established in 2016, this thriving women's boutique specializes in special occasion dresses, casual fashions and fun footwear, serving customers across a four-state region. Located in Billings' downtown hub, the business has built a reputation as a destination shopping experience for prom, weddings, special events as well as casual fashions.
Many downtown events take place right outside the store that consistently bring new clientele to the store. The 2nd Saturday in July through the 2nd Saturday of October includes festivals and Farmer's Market.
A unique clientele base has been formed. One group of customers is the woman who appreciates quality and customer service and wants something new to wear to church or lunch with friends. Another customer is the mother of the bride/groom that needs something for their child's special day. We are currently the only store that carries bridesmaids dresses in Billings. The other closest stores are in Bozeman, 2 hours west.
Our shoes are in sizes 5-13. This is a group of women that are not able to find shoes in their size within the area.
