If you live in Southern California and have raised a little girl, then no doubt you have been to or heard about a store called Luan’s. Tres Elegant opened their doors last month and proudly notes that they are a store inspire by Luan’s. Brightly lit by glistening chandeliers and back lighting that shows off each delicate ruffle and hand crochet pearl gilded hat, Tres Elegance has you ‘ooohing’ and ‘aahhing’ while continuing 64 years of dressing little girls as little girls.

In 2014 a business plan emerged, “I feel it was a good sign that I should be pursuing this,” said owner Suzette Baguio, “After presenting my plans to Luan, she was excited to handover the reigns to us and continue the family’s tradition of dressing little girls as little girls.  One other reason was that we wanted to take care of Luan’s customers offering classic, timeless dresses.” After taking over Luan’s existing inventory the legacy continues. Embarking on a new beginning Tres Elegant meaning very chic, captures the essence of the outfits that everyone loves.

Tres Elegant is located at 11660 South St., Suite 105, Artesia, CA 90701
