I went out looking for bridal lingerie. I had been to several shops in NYC before I stumbled upon Coeur. Upon entering Mona asked me what I was looking for and immediately pulled out at least 5 suggestions for me. I loved them so much I ended up buying more that want I originally came for. I even told my fiance that if he ever wanted to buy me something special to go to Coeur!
Pros: Great customer serivce, very nice selection
Cons: None

When I first went to Coeur, I have to admit that I was a little nervous due to some of the other reviews that were posted about the shop. Let me tell you, I will never again go anywhere else for bras! Mona is the bra professional!
Ladies, think of Mona as the breast doctor ?she will get the ?girls? into the proper size and style of bra. Although it may be awkward at first, but once you put yourself into Mona?s hands, you will never again go to a department store for bras. You will be put into the correct cup and band size, even if it has to be special ordered. The transformation is amazing! Keep in mind that a good bra is not cheap, it?s an investment in your appearance.
Pros: Mona - the expert
Cons: None

I've been professionally fitted twice before, but I just wasn't sure I was wearing the right size bra. Mona at Coeur took one look at me and put me in a completely different size. The difference was amazing--the entire upper half of my body looked taller and leaner and I stood up straighter. I can't believe that two different "professionals" put me in the same wrong size, and Mona got it right in a heartbeat. She takes a lot of care with her customers-- there were two other people in this tiny store when I got there and one of them needed special attention. This is not a place to go if you want to run in, grab something, and run out. And it isnt inexpensive. But it is worth every dime. This woman knows her business.
Pros: Extremely expert service
Cons: Expensive, can be time consuming

I went today...finally after reading the Phila Inq. article a few weeks back...what a surprise! A little nervous after reading the reviews but Mona was very gracious, extremely helpful and knew my size by looking at me, I was amazed at the difference of a bra fitting properly and found out I've been wearing the wrong size, (thanks to a V.S. mall lady)! I WILL go back and shop at Coeur again!! They had everything I wanted in my size & in stock, again surprizing for a small store but it was a great experience. OK I'm going on and on about a bra store but after buying sooo many that didn't fit right or weren't comfortable it does matter! The materials and finishings far surpassed the mall stores best brands anyday!
Pros: Mona knew her stuff!
Cons: Wish the store was closer to me!

I was hesitant to go because I HATE my chest and knew I wasn't properly fitted. The owner was gracious, hospitable, and knew her stuff. She didn't take a single measurement and had me two great- fitting bras within 5 minutes of my entering.
Victoria's Secret has nothing on Coeur.
She also advised me of my proper size (36G!) and how to check the cups, straps and bands for a good fit in case I wanted to shop elsewhere. There's no need for that, though. I will be going back regularly.
This is not a cheap bra store, but the service and quality are worth it.
Pros: great service, nice selection, intimate
Cons: none

I heard about this store online. I was interested in having a bra fitting since my current bras weren't really supporting me and I suspected I might not be able to find my cup size in mainstream lingerie stores. So I went with my friend. We walked up the steps and were buzzed into the store. When we got inside, I must admit, the people in the store initially treated us like we were criminals. The woman said "can I help you with something?" in a really rude way. I said that I wanted a bra fitting. The response was like I had said nothing at all. The woman was already with a customer and seemed to not care at all that I had entered the store. My friend and I awkwardly stood in the tiny store while this woman conducted her business as if we weren't there. In my mind I was thinking, this is ridiculous and I can't believe this and that I was going to tell the woman that she had lost my business and then storm off. But for some reason I decided to wait. I decided to see if the tiny store even had bras. Then the owner said to me that it would be just a minute which calmed me down. When the other customer left, she said to follow her into the back. She asked me my current bra size and then without even measuring me, grabbed a few bras for me to try one. I must admit that she was extremely good at knowing how to fix my bra troubles. She helped me determine how to wear a bra correctly and after trying on a few bras thats fit me great (38GG) I decided to buy one. She was also very helpful on how to care for my bras and when to get a new bra. So the experience overall went well so I am glad that I waited around instead of storming off. I think that the owner is actually nice if you can just get over her initial rudeness-- but I can understand why some people might not be able to do that. I would recommend this place to people who need extended cup sizes (DDD+) since you can get regular sizes in other stores and it might be cheaper.
Pros: owner is very knowledgeable, good selection of cup sizes, unique, excellent quality of bras
Cons: somewhat hostile environment, small store, maybe a little bit more expensive (but better quality)

Apparently other people haven't had that great of an experience with Coeur's sales help. I, on the other hand, had a nice shopping experience with them. The owner, Mona, greeted me outside her shop letting me know that a Spanx trunk show was happening later that day. Just in time, too! I went in and tried on a pair of Spanx. They checked in on me to see if I needed anything. I ordered the size I needed and the Spanx rep was knowledgeable and helpful. I even bought some 'hollywood fashion tape' on my way out. To top it off, they gave me a special gift for coming: a great pair of trouser socks.
Pros: a great little lingerie shop, large selection
Cons: small inside

Coeur Inc. has very unique and special lingerie, from comfortable everday bras, to beautiful specialized pieces. It is well worth go to and visit even if you are just looking. Victoria Secret lingerie is second rate and their quality does not last. Victoria's Secret is generic and not nearly of the quality merchandise at Couer. While the person there may get annoyed when trying things on, it is because people don't take special care and hang them back up, rather than drop merchandise to the floor, etc. I think she is just overly paranoid about the merchandise getting ruined because lingerie is delecate. But that is the way of the shopper and owner these days!!!
Pros: Unique and quality lingerie - including french lingerie line
Cons: A lot of merchandise to look; require assistance
