About

The closet is truly unique. We are tucked away in one of Atlanta's historic neighborhoods, in a building that is well over a hundred years old. Kelly's selection is very exclusive. She doesn't like to carry things that you find anywhere else in Atlanta, so mostly, she doesn't. But, the attitude here is ALL Candler Park, casual and laid back. The bridal salon works by appointment (so we can fuss over you as much as you want!), but the ready to wear shop is always open for peeking. Kelly shops the globe for the most interesting in the fashion world. She tends to like vintage style and timeless quality over trendy. But, she always loves flirty and fun. She has collected the most exciting, innovative, and creative collection of clothing: bridal wear, evening wear, ready to wear, accessories, and whatever else she decides to love. Who would think there would be one-stop shopping in Candler Park?

For the Brides

Kelly's bridal salon is like no other in town. It is truly unique, offering styles for the modern, sophisticated woman. Very fashion forward in her buying, she likes to introduce her brides to alternatives to "that same dress that is everwhere." Here, you will surprise yourself. We can do everything from elaborate to simple, but always with a little flair. Kelly's brides often want something a little different, and we never disappoint. Come in and see for yourself. We will instantly put you at ease with our attitude (and the shag carpet doesn't hurt). Even if you don't find your dress, you will Love your experience here. Just ask around, and other brides will tell you about the funky little shop down near little five points. Make the trip, we promise you won't regret the drive.

Most Beautiful Wedding Dress Ever!

After an extensive search for the perfect wedding dress, we made the journey from Charlotte to Atlanta to visit Kelly's Closet for my daughter Courtney's gown. From the moment we walked in, it was clear that this experience would be exceptional.

The staff at Kelly's Closet went above and beyond to ensure Courtney felt special. With a wide range of designer options, she ultimately chose a stunning custom dress from an overseas designer. While there were delays in the dress's arrival—through no fault of either the designer or the shop—Kelly's Closet kept us informed every step of the way, alleviating much of the stress we felt.

As the wedding day approached, timing became crucial. In a remarkable display of dedication, Kelly personally drove the dress from Atlanta to Charlotte not once, but twice, ensuring everything was perfect for the alterations. Her genuine care for Courtney’s experience was evident and greatly appreciated.

Making the trip to Atlanta was undoubtedly the best decision we made in this process. I wholeheartedly recommend Kelly's Closet to any future bride. Their commitment to customer service and attention to detail truly set them apart. Thank you, Kelly and team, for making Courtney’s wedding dress experience so memorable!

The BEST dress shop to exist

I cannot emphasize how wonderful Kelly's Closet was during my dress experience. They were personable, kind and so helpful during my dress search. I ultimately found the most wonderful dress and it was such an amazing experience. They have in house alterations to make things even easier! I cannot recommend Kelly's Closet enough.

The best part of wedding planning!

Getting my dress at Kelly's Closet was one of my favorite parts of the wedding planning process! We had a six-month engagement, so I was tight on time to find a dress, but everyone I know who has been married in Atlanta said I needed to try Kelly's Closet and I'm so grateful they squeezed me in with an appointment because I found the dress! They were SO kind and patient helping me make the decision and took great care in taking my measurements to get accurate sizing to help minimize the alterations that would be needed. And then throughout alterations - again just so patient and kind and listened to how I wanted things to look so I felt beautiful in the finished product. I wish they had a boutique for regular clothes so I could still enjoy the vibe and people!

Great experience

From the time I called Kelly to make an appointment to picking up my dress was the best experience! I purchased my dress only 2 months before the wedding; when I called Kelly, she was excited and wanted to help me find what I wanted. I tried on 5 dresses and the 5th one was her! She fit like a glove and was very beautiful! Kelly and her entire staff are great and we’re always eager to help! Thank you Kelly for helping me and for the beautiful dress! I was gorgeous ❤️

A Great Experience!

I had a wonderful experience getting my dress at Kelly’s Closet! Kelly’s Closet had lots of different styles and designers, so you really are able to get a feel for what kind of dress you’re looking for. I always thought I knew what I wanted, but of course, I tried on a long sleeve Jenny Yoo dress that I thought I would hate, but fell in love with! I went to one more bridal store after trying on “the dress”, but couldn’t stop thinking about the one I tried on at Kelly’s Closet, so my mom and I went back the next day to purchase it!

I don’t live in Atlanta, but decided to get my alterations done at Kelly’s Closet, as they have a cap on their alterations. Kelly and her team were great at offering suggestions on how to alter the dress, and Nora, the in-house seamstress, was amazing! She has a great eye for alterations and always took any feedback I had after fittings seriously to make sure my dress fitted exactly how I wanted it to!

I would 100% recommend making an appointment to try on dresses at Kelly’s Closet - you won’t be disappointed with their selections, and their customer service is top of the line!

Thank you, Kelly + team!!

TL:DR: I had a fantastic experience at Kelly’s. I originally THOUGHT I knew exactly what I wanted in a wedding dress, but eventually realized the style I was dreaming of really wasn’t the right one for me. That left me back to square one, with not much time to spare, until I went to Kelly’s. She pulled a sample of a style completely different than what I’d been trying on, and it turns out that was perfect! It was flattering and classic with a little uniqueness - exactly what I was hoping for. Plus, as a sample, it was on an amazing discount and worked for my timeframe. Because of proximity to my job, I ended up starting my alterations at a different shop, but after awhile I realized that tailor was not “the right fit” for me. I ended up back at Kelly’s to finish up my alterations, and they were awesome in advising me what shapewear I needed and talking me through everything. They were easy to talk to and I didn’t feel pressured to style my look any certain way. I loved their shop’s unique and stylish feel. They’re kind, communicative, and patient and it was so awesome to get to work with Kelly herself, too. Thank you, Kelly and team!

A wonderful experience!

The process of finding and purchasing a wedding dress at Kelly's Closet was a real dream! I had been looking online at wedding dresses for a while before I stepped into any stores and chose Kelly's Closet to visit first because of all of the beautiful independent designers they carried. The store is cozy and relaxed, and everyone working there made me immediately feel at ease. I found my dress during that first visit to the store, and the rest of the process went seamlessly. They kept me up to date as the dress was being made and shipped to the store, and their in house seamstress was wonderful. The care and attention she put into altering my dress was amazing. I couldn't have been happier! Thank you, Kelly's Closet!!

Destination Wedding PR

I was sent to Kelly's closet with a recommendation from a co worker. I had been around town and hadn't found a dress yet. I walked into Kelly's closet and Madison was amazing from the start. She showed me something that was beyond my expectations. Kelly personally takes care of each bride when they come in for fittings. I purchased a sample dress and by the time I took it home it looked like new!!! I was very happy with my dress and received so many compliments. Thank you Kelly and your team!

Best Experience & Variety

Kelly’s Closet has an incredible, wide variety of beautiful dresses. They carried the designers that I was struggling to find anywhere in Charlotte and I am so thankful we made the trip to Atlanta! My appointment was with Katie and she is so patient, nice and overall just so wonderful to work with. Because of my great experience, it was the first place my sister booked an appointment to try on dresses a few months ago. I tried on dresses at a couple other places, have gone with friends to look for their dresses, and nothing compares to the selection and experience at Kelly’s.
