Fraudulent Business - Sold a Used, Ripped Dress for $700!Do NOT buy from Karishma in New York. They…read moreare completely dishonest and took advantage of my family by selling us a reception dress for $700 that arrived damaged, ripped, and clearly used.When we opened the package, we were horrified to find multiple severe defects that no brand-new luxury dress should ever have:Massive holes and rips directly through the heavily beaded outer mesh overlay.Frayed, splitting seams on the interior lining where the fabric is completely pulling apart.Terrible construction quality with loose threads and unraveling beadwork.Paying $700 for a dress means expecting pristine quality for a once-in-a-lifetime event. Instead, Karishma sold us a heavily damaged item that looks like a worn floor sample or a cheap return. Selling a dress in this unwearable condition is completely unacceptable and fraudulent.We are currently demanding a full refund. Save your money, your time, and your sanity--stay far away from this boutique!

If you ever plan to go to this store for any dress or jewelry shopping or even for anything plz be aware. This place has the most unprofessional people I've ever seen. Worst Place to ever go in Jackson Heights plz plz there are many places there but don't ever go to this place. They don't know how to talk and communicate with the customer. When you enter the place the worker there has wired facial expressions and the owner doesn't even enjoy it when a customer comes. The rude behavior is on another level. I hate that I even stepped foot inside this store, to check it out and I was looking for some jewelry. Some bullshit prices going in there. I ended up finding a different store which is (Preojon and Royal Designer). They had the most beautiful jewelry there at a reasonable price. Plz go there don't make the mistake that I made. I will never forget how they made me and my friend feel the worst worst behavior ever. If they run the store with this type of behavior surely they will be Out of Business Soon. Plz DON'T ever go to this Bullshit store ever again.

It's Sunday and place is crowded but they do a good job having all the men's and ladies clothing and accessories displayed and organized nicely so everything is easy to see and find .I found the shirts I wanted and prices are reasonable with a few on sale . Got a six pack of socks and got my nephew the pants he wanted to wear when school starts up again . Overall not a bad gap factory in queens and working keep the place neat which can be difficult with some customers. 4 stars on my yelp meter .

I'm honestly surprised that I haven't already reviewed Lockwood. If I had to pick a favorite local…read moreboutique to buy gifts, this would be it. They have the cutest selection of gifts including NYC themed, kitchen, home goods, jewelry, baby, plants, seasonal, and more. I especially love their ornaments for the holidays. I picked up three new ornaments just this past weekend. After they holidays they typically go on sale as well. They do an annual sale around Black Friday where you get a reusable shopping bag with your purchase which entitles you to 10% off on all future purchases when you return with that bag - what more could you ask for as a customer? A few times throughout the year they'll do sales as well so be sure to keep an eye out on their social media for a heads up. They have three other Lockwood locations - Williamsburg, Greenpoint, and Jackson Heights. Next door from this Astoria location they have a store called Lockwood Paper which has a large greeting card section, and any paper related products you could imagine (think pens, notebooks, wrapping paper, and more). They have cute magnets and pins as well and even carry ornaments here too. Then around the corner is Lockwood Style which has clothing, accessories, and more. I only wish I lived closer, or they had a Sunnyside, Queens Home & Gift location because then I'd be here all the time - although my wallet probably thanks me for that.

Knick-knacks, tchotchkes, literally socks of all types, themed items. Location specific items. You name it, they probably have it. They also have a rewards program. The staff are very helpful, too. I'd give it 5 stars if it weren't for their prices. They are pretty steep, in my opinion. A pair of socks cost $15. They were of a special print and the perfect gift for a friend but I'd never ordinarily purchase a single pair of socks at that price point. I understand they aren't a big box store and need to keep the lights on, especially in Astoria. Come in for all the things - just expect to pay a pretty penny.

Located just steps from the east entrance to the 74th St station, this boutique biz has been a part of the neighborhood for a very long time. I'm fully aware I'm not the part of their target audience, have worn anything here (#2), so it's worth taking this review with a grain of salt. Despite my lack of traditional Indian attire experience, I've come here with friends and family to shop for sarees. (#3) Whether it was for tourist shopping in Jackson Heights or because they were hoping to rock a saree for an upcoming Indian wedding, I've seen a fair share of different outfits here and some of the stuff they have is pretty impressive. It's not all sarees of course, there's a whole spectrum of things they specialize in -- shalwar, kameez, lehnga choly, punjabi suits, silk suits, and children's formal wear. If they don't have items in house, they'll have it specially ordered from the motherland or import fabric for a custom job. Customer service could always been a bit warmer, but I say this because I think there could be a better hand holding experience for first timers out there. The staff seems to be able to speak a number of languages / dialects, which include urdu, Hindi, Tamil, and Punjabi. I was told by others the prices here can be a bit on the expensive side, but I also don't have a ton of experiences shopping in other similar stores. __________ (#1) Nowadays, more like little Bangladesh.

Upon walking in, I remember seeing a bunch of old women sweaters, which isn't really what I was looking for (I was in the market for my wedding dress). They have some of their mens collection on the walls. They're true bridal clothes are in the back of the store, which is where we spent the majority of our time. They have a huge collection of bridal clothes and had quite a few for the exact color that I was looking for. The woman working the store, happened to be Afghani and didn't understand Hindi (spoke perfect English though, which was great for me!) and was a true sweetheart the entire time I was there. She was really helpful picking out different clothes and quickly picking up styles that I liked/disliked. She was also nice when trying clothes on, showing me different ways that I could wear the clothes. Overall, a really nice woman....which made me feel bad when we didn't buy anything from them. Their clothes were really nice, but they were a little pricey and they didn't have exactly what I wanted. If I had to do it again, I'd definitely go back there for any occasion that I was looking for an outfit for.

You can tell it's a woman's owned business by the decor and the thoughtful product selection. Merchandise is selected with great taste and reflects great fashion sense. I was surprised and excited to find a purse I didn't buy in Athens last year and immediately added it to my basket. I loved when the owner told me " I sale everything I would wear". She was very personable went above and beyond to explain when asked questions. Honestly my girlfriend and I felt like we were on a shopping spree with another girlfriend of ours which made our experience more pleasant. In addition to the purse I purchased gorgeous statement handmade ring that would match well with one of my statement necklaces from Devon Leigh. I've been in fashion for 15+ years and it is exciting for me when a merchandiser is brave enough to challenge the market by introducing small handmade European brands. Bravo! My girlfriend bought a candle and called me raving about the smell and clean quality. Prices reflect the quality and selection in the boutique and are a good value. My purchases were wrapped beautifully and I received them in well made canvas tote with Hará's logo that I will definitely use and advertise the store. I emailed the boutique afterwards because I didn't receive my e-receipt and immediately received a response with attached receipt. Another point for exceptional customer service that is rare to experience now days! You can find clothes, accessories, candles and even Greek olive oil. I urge you if you haven't been to Hará to take a walk and visit to support a small business that bring beauty to Astoria. Cheerio!
