The Dressing Room 2.0 is back and ready to help women on St. Croix make a bold fashion statement for any special event. Owner Sativa “Tiva” Williams said, “It’s not called the dressing room by accident, this is literally the dressing room, where you come and get dressed.”
Located just above Thomas Bakery in Castle Coakley, The Dressing Room 2.0 has everything needed to prepare for a special event, a night out in town, or a date. It offers a variety of items, including pantyhose, shades, earrings, necklaces, jeans, matching sets, lip exfoliators, lip gloss, tweezers, and more.
At The Dressing Room 2.0, guests can book appointments for specialties such as hair braiding, brow tinting, lash extensions, and small tattoos.
“I just want to make sure that I am able to cater to every body type and fashion sense,” said Williams. “I want to make sure that when you walk through the doors of The Dressing Room you are able to feel like we are able to cater to you. It’s a special place, it’s like a safe haven for women and soon men. You are able to come in and find anything you want to wear.”
Williams said that she was forced to close during the pandemic, but the relaunch signified something personal for her. “I wanted to make sure I am able to tackle the areas where we fell short,” she said.
The Dressing Room 2.0 caters to sizes extra small to 4X. Williams has always been very passionate about clothing — so passionate that her family even comes to her to get styled and dressed.
“How I decided to get into the actual The Dressing Room business was my husband would always tell me I’m always spending money on clothes. So, I was like let me open it up. I always wanted a place where I felt safe and comfortable shopping. I opened up this idea in my mind and brought it to life and brought my fashion tips to people,” she said.
Locals will also be pleasantly surprised at the affordable pricing. At the store’s relaunch on Feb. 9, Williams said, “I am in the community. I want to make sure we can dress fashionable but affordable.”
The Dressing Room 2.0’s hours of operation are Monday through Thursday from noon to 5 p.m. and Friday through Saturday from noon to 6:30 p.m. When entering the store, make sure to ask about their VIP list. With a membership, there are options to schedule shopping and special percentages off items in-store and other services.
