Meet Stylist and Shop Owner Maria Dasaro Attar from Dawood Boutique
It’s wedding season, baby! A frequently asked question I’ve been getting lately is where do I find cute outfits for events or work?! I personally prefer shopping IN PERSON rather than online, so whenever I find a local boutique that I love - you guys are always the first to know about it!
Maria Dasaro Attar (pictured in a stunning pink number above) is a premier stylist and the owner of Dawood Boutique, located off Kercheval Ave. in Grosse Pointe (and one of the midwest’s best-kept secrets…). Dawood Boutique specializes in special-occasion dresses and luxury essentials in categories ranging from swimwear and loungewear to tops, athleisure wear, and accessories!
Maria and her team are incredibly hospitable, and you can trust them to KNOW what will look good on your body type, while keeping your personal style, likes/dislikes, and budget in mind. You can trust Dawood Boutique because this place has been family-owned SINCE 1960!
Maria’s grandmother Bettie Dawood always had a dream of opening a boutique, and in 1960 made that dream a reality inside the original Book Caddilac Hotel in downtown Detroit. Four years later, a second store was opened in the Hilton Hotel.
After both hotels closed, Dawood Boutique found a new home in today’s Grosse Pointe, Michigan location, where the family has set a milestone of being the best-kept secret in the midwest.
As a family-owned and operated business for over 60 years, the Dawood family has shopped the market from New York, Montreal, and Europe to bring their clientele a stunning array of clothes. They combine the glamour of Beverly Hills, with the sophistication of New York.
So, if you’re ever looking for something to wear to a - shop at Dawood Boutique! And don’t miss my feature this month on recommendations of people to use as your glam squad for wedding or event season, too ;)
