ABOUT US

Claire Dickson Boutique, at 545 Germantown Pike, was started by Claire Dickson nearly 30 years ago when her son, David, and daughter Debbie, were off at college, allowing her more free time. It started small with the encouragement of Claire's late husband, who suggested that Claire do what she does best, shop and surround herself with high fashions. With those words of encouragement and an initial investment of just $1,600, Claire was off to New York, where she purchased novelty sweaters.

She displayed these sweaters on a single counter at a Lafayette Hill Salon, and within a few days they were all sold. So back to New York for more sweaters and  sportswear and the store was born. Two years later, daughter Debbie graduated from Dickinson College, while contemplating law school and interviewing with Xerox and IBM, Claire asked her to help out at the boutique to help meet the increasing demands.They quickly recognized their talent as a team and really enjoyed this new relationship.

In 1984 the boutique moved from within the salon to their own space. In 1996 they expanded again, doubling in size, increasing their staff, their merchandise, and allowing for an alteration department. Claire and Debbie continue weekly buying trips to New York and now shop the Paris and Milan markets as well.

Today, this upscale boutique offers everything from trendy sportswear to exclusive eveningwear, and a full range of accessories. Claire, Debbie, and their staff of experienced stylists are hands on, and always available to fulfill all your fashion needs in a professional and friendly manner.
