Editorial Review for Wardrobbe – by Neha Shah
In Short
This roomy, airy shop with gloriously good lighting gives girls and guys ideas for mixing and matching new get-ups. Some of "Dawson's Creek's" hippest clothes were purchased here. Depending on your mood, you, too, can find a subtle or daring outfit among the racks. Friendly staff members will help you sift through the many lines, including DKNY and French Connection, featured in the store. Jewelry and purses enhance the final touches to the perfect ensemble.

Know Before You GoThe boutique also features swimwear, but serious swimmers need not look; these cutting-edge pieces aren't cut out for a triathlon.

I haven't been to Wardrobbe in awhile but, I found so much to choose from (more than anywhere else in Cameron Villiage) and such genuine people who work there. I dont know why people are such Nordstrom supporters- dont get me wrong Nordstrom is great and all- but apparently some people don't appreciate privately owned businesses. I came in the other morning and the girl that helped me had so many suggestions for me and just kept giving me things to try on that I did not see on the racks. She helped me out so much it will be the #1 I will shop at from now on!
Pros: Employees, Selection
Cons: Parking

For cool, casual men's clothes in Raleigh, this place is *decent.* I agree with one of the other reviewers: the service needs some work. When I was helped, it was typically from one of the guys, who was actually very helpful and pleasant. The rest of the staff I would characterize as "retail blondes": they either flirt with you or blankly sit there. Either way, they aren't of much help. The selection of clothes for guys includes Diesel, Modern Amusement, Ben Sherman, Andrea Palombini, etc. (Note that Urban Outfitters carries both Diesel and Ben Sherman). The selection of jeans is pretty weak--go to Nordstrom. They have some funky shoes, but never anything in my size (13)--go to Nordstrom for that as well. But they do have some cool shirts, and it is one of the few places to carry Andrea Palombini shirts. Even then, they mark them up significantly, so it is easier to order them online from LA. (see JRansomLa dot com). All in all, this place includes a service premium in its prices, without providing much service. In a bigger, more cosmopolitan city than Raleigh, I think this place would have a hard time staying in business--at least in terms of men's clothing. I occasionally stick my head in the door, but it's easier to do my shopping for cool clothes at either Nordstrom, NV, or in another city altogether.
Pros: The Occasional Cool Shirt.
Cons: Indifferent Staff. Prices.
