We were on the hunt for a reasonably priced dress for my daughter's baptism. We visited two other…read morespots before stopping off at Kostatex. The lady who helped us (who I can only assume was the owner) was the sweetest and kindest sales person I've ever met. She made great suggestions, was so friendly and really was so patient with my super cranky daughter that would not stop crying. She tried to cheer her up and even gave her a lollipop. She put together a whole outfit which was all reasonably priced. You honestly can't pay for that kind of customer service these days so it was refreshing to see. I will definitely keep Kostatex in mind for future events. This place and its staff are just simply amazing!

Well today I went to Kostatex Children's Wear store on the Danforth…read more What a find it is. I looked everywhere to find a christening gown for my great nephew and it was pretty hard. So much is only available on the web. Well if you are looking for: - baptismal outfits - christening gowns (including the traditional long ones), and outfits for boys - formal wear for young girls or boys (for flower girl or confirmation or other such events) Well..... LOOK NO FURTHER!! This place is great! So much selection, and the staff and owner couldn't have been more helpful! My niece lives out of Toronto, so they let me take pictures and send to her, and then we discussed it on the phone and we made the choice over which one we wanted. This is a small family run business but they have been on the Danforth for a long time. That speaks for itself.... and frankly based on the service I had today, they'll be there for much longer! So if this is the type of clothing that you are looking for - head on over -- you won't be disappointed!! Outfits were available in every price range - so no matter what your needs and budget, you'll find something here! (BTW - some other lady was in there -- and like me, noticed their new sign and went in and found exactly what she was looking for). These folks are few and far between -- so to have a shop where you could see the goods, match shoes and socks etc to it --- wonderful!

Also got the initial order wrong, then proceeded to blame my mother, and insist that the gown received was the one ordered. Horrible way to treat someone, let alone someone putting down a large sum of money for their sons wedding. This should have been a happy experience, but it was completely ruined by this woman's appalling customer service. When the manager was approached, it was shrugged off. Other staff in the building seemed nice, however the experience with this woman so hurt my mother I would go out of my way to ensure no one would have to deal with this woman again. Avoid at all costs.

I passed this store and peered in and saw a bright, airy, and refined beautiful interior filled…read morewith even more beautiful clothes. It has many incredibly gorgeous pieces of clothing you can wear to an evening out or a special gala. I didn't even realize it was a bridal store till i peered behind the curtained area. The service greeted all of us and made sure if we had a question, they were more than happy to come help. The front area is filled with clothes from my favourite brand For Love and Lemons and also another brand called Keepsake. I would say both go for the luxury, refined, and yet stunning designs that would draw the eyes. If bridesmaid were able to wear these, I think there would be zero arguments on rewearing the dress. There is also lots of accessories and home items that can turn a dull home to something with a bit more indulgence. I didn't come here for a wedding but I did see an appointment while I was there and there was a definite ease and attention to detail in this calm space. Seeing everyone smile would probably be a great indication the appointment was going well. If I ever need a gorgeous evening wear that captures people's attention while still being refined, I'll return here.

My sister has now purchased two outfits from House of Kalra, both times we had great experiences…read more It is a family run business in Ajax (much needed, the east end doesn't have as much variety as the west end). The store is set up like a warehouse, but very organized and clothing is categorized by both price and occasion (wedding attire toward the back, part in the center and casual in the front). They sell complete outfits off the rack, lehenga skirts, sari/lehenga tops, dupattas, mens sherwani's, mens vests, kids clothing and can custom make virtually anything! They also usually have a tailor on site who can help with any adjustments required. The family that run the store (husband, wife and daughter) are very helpful and kindly greet and offer assistance as soon as you enter. The husband helped us the first time, and even though my sister can be very specific he was sure to clarify her needs and budget and show us multiple items. The second time we dealt with the wife (Ginni, such a kind lady) and she was awesome! She suggested mixing and matching tops and skirts and dupattas to maximize outfits and wearing...how great! She even went into the change room with my sister helped her dress, and reassured her that she looked great! I appreciate that they will never gauge you for money, they seem to genuinely enjoy what they do! I highly recommend them for all your indian outfit needs!

So we drove there and as I stood outside I called the number on the door and the wife answered and said it's ok come on in. We were happy because it was cold outside, anyway we went in and she helped my daughter find an outfit and help her in the fitting room. Her husband (Sunny) was very helpful to, we bought the outfit and we are very pleased with the service that was provided. We will be going back there to buy some more outfits for a wedding.

What an amazing experience at Fitzroy! I have a black tie wedding to go to in May and was hesitant…read moreto purchase a dress that I would only wear for one event so when I learnt about rental opportunities.. I jumped on it! There were so many dress options for me as someone who is ~5'7 - I had such a fun time looking through all the colours available. As soon as you walk in, you're able to explore the options and the service was amazing. I had flagged down Nicole and she was so incredibly helpful throughout the process, finding dresses that fit the style I was looking for and helping hunt down my size. I was so lucky to find one I loved and confirm it was available for the date I need! With the shipping and total price of the dress - it was such a deal, especially when I know I wouldn't wear it again after one event. Excited to get my dress in May and I'll be updating my review as soon as it arrives!

They're completely transparent about any damages or stains on the dresses if someone who booked the dress previously have stained it or damaged it which is nice and good to know. Will definitely be renting dresses from here :)
