Highly recommended. Just the amount of colors in there makes you feel like you have traveled through a rainbow with wonderful incense.

So you're walking along in the insane heat, and you see this dress, and this rack of clothes, this…read moredress your looking at is gorgeous and you know you need to have your hands on it, so you walk in. You walk in and see a mess of beautiful heels and a few nice hats. You venture on into the store to see some lovely jewelry and a few eye catching headbands. You're in the back of the store now, a small wonderland of dresses and shirts. After sorting through, you find this dress and try it on... you look gorgeous! Then you think, ugh... the price tag... $69, ok kind of expensive maybe its just not worth it. So you leave this dressing room to see a sign, it says 50% off... that little finance devil on your shoulder disappears in a cloud of black smoke. You pay for it and skip down the street, happy with your cute little find. Ok, fine here is a real review, the place is amazingly cute and it is easy to want to try everything on. The only reason this place is not five stars is that the dressing room is just behind a wooden screen door, so there is no door into it, which makes you feel a bit uncomfortable. It is a great little store in an awesome area.

This is a great "find" in Little Italy, just north of Chinatown. On our last day in the city, we…read morewere in Chinatown looking for scarves to bring home to friends. We wandered up Mulberry and found this charming little store with the most beautiful, feminine scarves we've ever seen. The prices were excellent and her designs were most unique. They were a "hit" with everyone who received them and we will have to call the store to order more. It's an absolutely darling store and was so much fun, we had trouble leaving. Don't miss it.

Don't waste your time on this place. I could not decide whether the clothes were just really old…read morestore overstock items or actual used thrift items. Everything was 50% off (though I get the feeling that it's 50% all the time, so why not just lower the prices?). Clothes were priced at $8-$15 (so really half of that $4-$7ish). Clothes were from like the 90s styles (which is too recent for retro and too old for cool). I didn't check out the upstairs mens, but I have a feeling it would have been more of the same. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because the jewelry was reasonably priced ($1 bracelets) and somewhat interesting though I didn't buy anything. Lastly, the staff was unprofessional and their conversations with each other in front of customers was appalling. Let's just say save the locker room talk for the back room. Overall, the place is classless and drab. There's probably a gem if you dig through every single item, but not worth the time IMO.

The owner is very impolite. No trying is possible and there is no clear signature in this shop…read moresaying that it is not allowed. No trying idea is very bad and likely comes from a strange idea that I have time to give back a cloth if its bad. No!

Sad, and at least strange, because I will not buy any cloth without first trying it. If there is a bad law than CHANGE IT...

Had to take a full day out of my schedule (lost valuable freelance project time) to travel to this upscale shop and meet with the owner. Owner was quite busy, but gracious enough to give me her full attention while I presented my portfolio. We discussed ideas for their logo redesign and poster project. I gave a project quote and requested to be paid upon completion. Total mistake. The following day, I emailed her assistant 4 different concept sketches so that we may move forward (job ad claimed this was a job with a tight deadline and required several revisions). No answer. Several days later, I emailed asking for an update. No answer until about a week later. I get some pretentious 'we're having such a busy season, we cannot answer your email at the moment.' Ridiculous. It's been well over a month and I have never gotten a response back. I am a beginner at freelance work and have been struggling to land a full-time design-related position. I like to work with family owned companies, and this is the most unprofessional flaky experience so far. I don't recommend working with this company.

We wore KEP for our wedding and unfortunately the experience we had was overall stressful and…read moredisappointing. We would not recommend KEP to anyone that has a strict deadline and/or anyone who expects a high level of customer service. After receiving a few recommendations from friends, my now husband and I made an appointment in the NYC store on May 10 looking for white jackets and black pants (for made to measure) for our wedding on the west coast on August 20 (so, at least 3 months in advance). After a LOT of back and forth (finding white vs. cream fabric is a lot more difficult than it sounds) we finally found fabric that we wanted and on May 24 went through the entire process of getting measured and paying a lot of money (thousands of dollars each) for the outfits. Since KEP was a well-known brand, especially in the gay community, we were excited about our decision to splurge a little bit on this, with the expectation that the service would be great and that this would be something we didn't need to stress out about last-minute. We were very wrong. Fast forward a month later, on June 21, we received a call from KEP saying that they actually didn't have enough of the white fabric we chose to make two jackets, and there wasn't enough time to wait until they received more in stock. So they said we should come back in to pick a different fabric. Since we already paid and already got measured and frankly didn't have enough time to go elsewhere, we rushed into the store to pick a different fabric. The new fabric we chose cost more than our original, and given the situation KEP offered it to us at no additional charge. We felt like things were back on track and looked forward to our fitting a few weeks before the wedding to make any last-minute adjustments. More time goes by, and then we hear from KEP saying that they need to push our fitting from a few weeks before the wedding to 10 days before the wedding. We became more nervous, especially because we had planned for KEP to ship the outfits to the west coast so we wouldn't have to travel with them. Then, when that date approached, KEP said we would have to push it to 8 days before the wedding (the Friday before). We became more nervous. When we came to the fitting, we learned that only the jackets were ready, and not the pants. The jackets needed adjustments. We asked when the pants would be ready for us to try on and they said they would let us know ASAP. The entire weekend went by and we did not hear anything from them. We called, messaged, and texted just about everyone we could find who works at the company and heard nothing until Monday morning (5 days before the wedding), when they said that everything is fine and that they are shipping our pants directly to the west coast. This obviously made us extremely nervous because this meant that we wouldn't be able to trying our pants on prior to the wedding. We asked them to ship the pants to the west coast as soon as possible so we could get them tailored there if necessary. Miray (the co-founder of KEP), instead of apologizing for the last-minute scramble and rushing, reminded us how they have been good partners and assured us that the pants would be fine and that we had nothing to worry about. The pants arrived on the west coast 3 days before the wedding and they were, as expected, too big. In the midst of everything else going on, we had to rush a tailoring job (through a tailor we found on our own) and paid $90 to fix the pants. We picked up the pants the morning of the wedding. The thing that bothered us most was not the fact that our outfits arrived behind schedule. It was the extreme lack of service we experienced throughout the entire process. Communicating with the co-founder of the company, as well as the NYC representative, was always terribly painful. There was a lack of responsiveness, a lack of answers, and a lack of urgency. For a high-end store, we found the service to be seriously disappointing. Having to deal with last-minute adjustments before your wedding (among everything else) is one of the most stressful experiences in itself, but the feeling of having to deal with it alone, without the support of the company you just paid thousands of dollars to, is the highest insult. No one from KEP ever apologized for this experience, instead saying that they understand weddings can be stressful. After the wedding, we emailed Miray asking if they could reimburse us for the $90 rush tailoring. She did not respond. I followed up and said that we were planning to write reviews of all of our wedding vendors online. She did not respond.

This place is the worst. DO NOT COME HERE for anything…read more I went there about a month ago to get a pair of jeans altered. Which is a pretty simple task for a place like this. I'm no expert on alterations, but I can't think of anything more basic that a place like this can do. Needless to say, it took forever and they screwed up my jeans. They lied to me numerous times about when the jeans would be ready. And when the jeans finally came back, they were altered wrong. It doesn't take over two weeks shorten jeans! They were very rude to me as well. If a place does not know how to shorten jeans and treats it's customers poorly, why would you want to spend thousands of dollars on custom made clothing here? There are plenty of other places where you can buy custom made clothing with quality alterations and good customer service. Go there and avoid Klein Epstein & Parker.
