    Olympia S.

    First, let me start by saying I do not normally write reviews. My thought process is this...if I don't like the product or service received, I simply do not return. In the case of working with Geri and his staff at Alexia Gavel Bridal, however, I had such a wonderful experience from beginning to end, that I had to give credit to Geri and his team above and beyond handshakes and hugs :). From the selection process, to the necessary rounds of alterations to get the fit just right, to the delivery, to the post-wedding follow-up, my husband and I have been very pleased with Alexia Gavela Bridal and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone who is looking to entrust such an important piece of the wedding process to professionals who know their business and client's expectations well. Thank you so, so much Geri for helping me shine on my most special of days! Love, -Olympia Ysabela Horst

    I cannot say enough how great this place was, I tried on several gowns at a couple of shops and was starting to think I was going to have to wear a generic store bought white dress. I made one last appointment here and walked in and felt like a princess, they brought me what I said that I liked right off the bat and low and behold the DRESS! It was there waiting for me to find it. They were great from beginning to end, alterations on point, it fit me like a glove. I highly recommend!

    Finding an evening gown or prom dress can be quite challenging. I had searched high and low all…read moreover Austin from David's Bridal to Barton Creek mall to no avail. I was looking for special occasion dresses to fit my vision: refined and not too run of the mill. If you are in the same boat then start at this boutique because I have found success with two beautiful dresses from here. I love the layout of the store. I have been to dress warehouses which get overwhelming. This is a smaller boutique with dresses arranged by size then by color. The staff greets you and gets an idea of what you are shopping for. When it's time for a fitting room they take your dresses and set them inside the curtain for you. They kindly offer to help zip you up and are very respectful, never did I feel uncomfortable. Outside of the fitting room is a catwalk with a big mirror. They have an alterations person if you need one but be mindful that prom season gets very busy. The sales are final but if the dress is right then you know that won't be a problem. People told me I looked like a princess in the dresses I got from here and they made me feel beautiful :)

    My experience at Z Couture was extremely disappointing and upsetting. When we walked into the…read morestore, the woman working there did not greet us or make us feel welcome at all. Her attitude immediately felt cold and uninviting. As people of color, we couldn't help but notice that she appeared much friendlier and more attentive to other non-colored customers in the store. We looked around on our own and found a couple of dresses we liked. When I asked where we could try the dresses on, instead of walking us to the fitting rooms or offering assistance, she simply pointed and said, "there's people over there if you need help," without any effort to actually help us. Later, while my sister was trying on dresses, the employee spoke to us in a very rude and unfriendly tone, saying that she had to zip the dress herself. We completely understand store policies, but it was the way she said it that felt disrespectful. When I told her we didn't appreciate how she spoke to us, her response was that she didn't care. This situation was especially upsetting because this is my sister's first and last prom. She actually found a dress she liked, but the poor customer service made her feel so uncomfortable that she decided to leave without buying it. No one should feel unwelcome or treated differently while shopping, especially during such an important moment. Customer service makes a huge difference, and sadly, our experience at Z Couture did not reflect kindness, professionalism, or respect. I truly hope management takes situations like this seriously and works to ensure that all customers are treated equally and respectfully.

    I originally went to Neiman Marcus for the Chanel boutique inside…read more.. but the whole place ended up being pure designer eye candy. Gorgeous displays, stunning pieces everywhere you look, and it's honestly just fun to wander even if you're just browsing. Each floor is basically a little runway of gorgeousness, and I kept catching myself doing slow laps like I was at a museum of handbags and shoes. Everything is styled beautifully, so even if you don't plan to buy, it still feels like a full designer experience. There is luxury pricing, but even if you want to just browse there are tons of options and so much help in the store for your budget. What really made it stand out though was the service. I only had an actual consultant in Chanel, but everywhere else in the store I still felt taken care of. Staff were attentive and kind without hovering, and I never got that awkward vibe of being ignored or followed. I got to browse with zero pressure, which makes all shopping so much more enjoyable. Even the parking feels fun with palm trees out front. If you're going for a certain brand or inside boutique (like Chanel), give yourself extra time to explore. This location is also right by an area with a bunch of shopping, food spots, and fun stuff to do (we even did VR nearby), so it's easy to make this stop part of a whole outing.

Yes this is a very upscale store that is incredibly well merchandised. The bathrooms alone here out do some prominent hotel facilities. Upstairs, you'll find designer clothing, Waterford crystal, clearance racks and the bathrooms. Downstairs you'll find lots of jewelry, men's clothing, fragrances galore, makeup, designer purses, and shoes. If you're into high fashion with money to burn, then you've stepped into the right place and the photos included prove it.

We hired a photographer and gathered our team together for a photo shoot in the next few weeks. The photographer provided us with clothing recommendations and that is when I had the Aha Covid moment. I hadn't worn a suit or a business jacket in years. Pre-Covid for sure. To be fair, I rarely did to begin with, but I did have a suit and a couple of jackets. I pulled them out and to my surprise, none, I mean not a single one of them fit. It wasn't that I had gained significant weight, but the last 3 yrs I have been regularly working out with a trainer. The jackets fit as well as the jackets Pee-Wee Herman used to wear. I needed a jacket and needed it in a few weeks. I have driven by Capra, numerous times over the years and promised myself, that I would treat myself and pick up a suit there one day. Well this was a perfect time to do so. I grabbed Suz to head out to Capra. They are easy to get to and have a parking garage at no cost. Which is a plus. We walked in to the store and behold, all sorts of suits, jackets, shirts, slacks. I mean everything a dude could wish for. I made my way in and Ivan approached me and asked if he could be of service. I explained why I was there and my timeline. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to have a suit made in time for the photo shoot, but he did let me know of a very nice high end line of ready made, if you will. We looked at swatches and being a favorite of blue, found a colour that I really liked. He looked at me and said, I believe your are a 48R, which I was a few years ago. So we slipped one on and immediately went to a 50R, if I remember correctly. He jumped on a call quickly, only to find out they didn't have one in stock that size, but had options. Again, this was a timeline issue for me. I knew I was pushing finding something of quality with only a couple of weeks notice. Ivan had an alternative, which was actually my second favorite, so we went with that version. He let me know it would be shipped in a few days and he would give me a call once at the store to be fitted. True to his word, he called and I was off to get fitted. The jacket was everything I expected. Fine tailoring, wonderfully soft material and the colour was perfect. He spent about 5-10 minutes fitting it, making chalk lines and let me know when it would be ready to pick up. Less than a week later, I popped by to pick it up, it was fitted correctly and off I went. Ivan was polite, insightful, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. A pleasure to work with. I will find a time to come back and have a suit made at Capra and find reasons to wear as often as possible. What a great experience all around.

I have brought her everything from bridesmaid dresses to work pants and casual shirts, and every single piece comes back looking like it was custom made just for me.

She is incredibly skilled, fast, and professional, and she somehow manages to make even the most complex alterations look effortless. It is rare to find someone with her level of talent and consistency. K&G should feel honored to have such a top tier specialist on their team.
