Ayokari Fashions was incredible. I had bought a dress off of the internet that I wanted to get…read morealtered because I wanted it to be more modest. I appreciated that Atecia listened to every concern I had. Through the process of trying to pin where the alterations would go, she would consistently check in with me to see if the fitting was too tight or loose, whether I would like more coverage, and how I would like the design to be. I appreciated the time she took to hear ALL of my concerns -- I never felt rushed and I always felt respected by her. This is in contrast to other alterations places I had called (they all tried to rush me and make me commit to things I didn't feel comfortable with). In the end, she turned a strapless dress into a beautiful, long-sleeve dress that people kept commenting on as we did our wedding photoshoot. I had no idea that it was possible to do as much as she did through alterations. For example, I had bought the wrong colored bolero -- my dress was a bright white, but the bolero was an ivory color. She worked MAGIC to fix it, as you can tell from the pictures. She hand-made another bolero for me and made it seem like the bolero was always part of the dress. I was SO pleased with all her hard work. Another important and great part of doing business with Atecia is that she works very quickly -- she knows exactly what to do, and her turnaround rate is very quick. It was a busy wedding season in August but she was always so calm and patient, even when I had last-minute requests. I had to do some one-week-before-the-wedding alterations and she was very accommodating. She finished the work within two days and I was seriously wow-ed. I've attached pictures to this review of what the dress looked like before (online picture) and after. Thank you so much, Atecia!!

During a busy wedding season and moving, among other things pulling their attention, they did not show any signs of stress or rush. My dress was simple and did not need much altering, but they showed me the same care they would show to any client. They also helped me to get some money back on my dress for a slight imperfection, which paid for the alteration itself! There were multiple opportunities to upcharge me with additional alterations, but did not take them because the dress was fine as is.

No they weren't. Saturday I called in at 11 am and they still hadn't arrived yet. Called again after 1pm and they indicated the pants were there. I arrived there at 4 pm to pick them up, but they were closed. That was my bad, should have checked theirs operating hours. Long story short, I didn't have them for the weekend and that bummed me out. Again, the hem job was perfect. The guy at the counter was nice, although I wish he would have offered me some assistance with measuring the hem job I needed. I am clueless about these kind of things. Perhaps he was too about alterations. He had a tough enough job finding clothes in racks that aren't automated. He must have a system but that looked like hard work to me.

They have many styles and were so accommodating, pulling styles for me and showing things that I may like but have not considered. I ended up with a dress that was pulled out last! Also, I went in thinking I would buy a dress I previously tried on at a separate place and they were able to order it for me if I ended up deciding that I wanted that style from Allure. They are able to order dresses and are very honest with the time it takes to make and get delivered. Another thing to note is that they were not predatory at all which was so refreshing. I had a couple of experiences where I felt pressured to make a decision on the spot and then received many texts after asking me to make a choice which Ira did none of. Overall, a great experience and I was also sent home with an unexpected bottle of Prosecco to celebrate which was the cherry on top!

Decided to buy a tux with 2 black tie events coming up. Thought I could buy something inexpensive…read moreat Macy's but wasn't impressed with the tux quality nor the ultimate cost. So I did some research for a local tailor and decided to give Vihan a try based on the reviews. What I found was an institution of over 50 years in North Jersey. Vihan Custom Tailors was exactly what I was searching for in a custom shop. First and foremost, Joe was super welcoming and gregarious. I explained I needed a tux for an upcoming wedding and outlined my timing. He was helpful and very accommodating. If I had a dollar for every time Joe said "no problem" to any of my requests, it would have paid for the tux! Just by looking at me, he brought me to the rack with my size to get a good fit. The quality of the jackets was immediately noticeable. All of the blazers were stylish. The process was quick and painless. Next, Joe showed me around the store so I could see the rest of their dapper inventory. We added a shirt and a couple accessories and I was on my way. When my tux came in, I met Vihan, the founder and tailor of the shop. During the fitting, I watched a master in action. My body is on the stockier side so I'm always concerned about the fit of suits. Vihan assured me it wouldn't be an issue. After the fitting, I asked Joe if one of the blazers I liked the previous visit could be ready with my tuxedo on short notice for the rehearsal dinner. As usual, Joe's answer was "no problem!" When the tuxedo and blazer came in I couldn't be happier. I love the quality of the tux. It immediately stood out for the premium material and intricate stitching. Vihan & his team did a fantastic job with the alterations, including to my shirt. The tuxedo was form-fitting and not boxy. I was ecstatic with the fit. During the wedding festivities, I was extremely excited about how well the blazer and the tuxedo looked and felt. Both outfits stood out; especially the tux in a sea of tuxes. Needless to stay I will be going to Vihan for all of my menswear and tailoring needs in the future. Loved getting to know the Joe, Vihan & the team. You'll always be in good hands with them. In the age of department stores, a family-owned, local bespoke tailor is quite the find. Vihan's classic, personal experience shouldn't be missed. See you guys soon!

The dressing rooms are very large and private for you and your party.

Came back 3 weeks and the results were horrendous to say the least. I got a small partial refund when picking up the garments because the owner, Emir, was not in the studio at the time. I emailed and got in contact with Emir requesting additional compensation after I inspected my garments more closely at home. I also had another tailor that I use take a look at the damages. He said the job was rushed and the wrong buttonholes were used. Emir disagreed with my tailor's judgement, writing that I should come in to discuss. It has been a week and he has not informed me of any possible appointments. Here is a technical breakdown of what went wrong. 1. Wrong buttonholes. 2. Buttonholes crooked. 3. Buttonholes not fully cut open. 4. Bad stitching and other faults. 5. Weird spacing. The buttonholes on a suit jacket/sport coat/ blazer should be a keyhole shaped buttonhole (Google Search agrees with me). Comparison pictures attached. Emir said they get various buttonhole requests from retailers and with his "20 years of experience", buttonholes on cuffs do not have to be keyhole buttonholes. I disagree. First problem not using a keyhole buttonhole, it causes puckering of the fabric around it. The buttons have shanks and usually (I mean always) sit in the keyhole so the fabric lays flat. Also the keyhole helps keep the buttons aligned at the end of the buttonhole. I confirmed all my suspicion first with my old alteration tailor and then my bespoke tailor, his response attached. The work done for the suit jacket was the worst job I have ever seen. The person who worked on the jacket kindly left the chalk markings so I can see how distorted and crooked everything was. Spacing was uneven, buttons were sewn on 3 different ways on a single side of the cuffs. Some of the button holes were not fully cut open, about a third of the buttonhole was still closed. They left an inch of the collar not stitched and forgot a spool of threads in the pocket. I saw the work of another employee and it looked fine. Sadly, I do not trust the owner anymore after his comments.
