    Lara was an absolute pleasure to work with! I came to Lara after being referred over by a friend and am so happy that I trusted her with my dress. In addition to doing your usual wedding dress alterations, she made me two custom sleeves (a tulle puff sleeve and an off-the-shoulder sleeve using the original lacing from the dress) to switch out from ceremony to reception. I unfortunately lost the off-the-shoulder sleeve (through no fault of Lara) during transport on the day of the wedding and was so bummed I never got to wear it but absolutely loved the puff-sleeve. She was so patient with me in our fitting sessions as well, and was able to squeeze in a last minute session as I was still losing weight close to the wedding. Pricing was also great and worked with our budget. Overall, I would definitely recommend Folklore Dress Studio if you need wedding dress alterations, custom pieces, or even a custom wedding dress. She was always so sweet, addressed all of my dress concerns, and I never felt rushed during our sessions. Thank you Lara!!

    The best wedding dress alterations! Went from a strapless size 14 dress to a long sleeve size 2 dress. Lara is so great at her work and takes her time. I came in once a month for a 1 hour session for 5 months to try on and work on any additional fixes and ideas. She changed the entire bodice, added sleeves, changed the zipper, changed the underlining and sewed additional 3D floral lace I purchased from the dress designer (Calla Blanche).

    Lara is absolutely AMAZING. She literally was my fairy godmother and really elevated and transformed my dress to what I always dreamed of! So I said yes to a beautiful Ines Di Santo prototype/sample gown, but at the end of the day I was not fully satisfied because it was missing what I've always wanted in my wedding gown- sleeves. I still took it home because the rest of the design and silhouette were too perfect to pass up and I was so emotional with it on. I've always wanted big beautiful billowy off the shoulder sleeves and I was insistent to find a trustworthy seamstress to build them for me! Even the designer didn't even want to do them so I was heartbroken until I found Lara! Lara was incredibly accommodating, professional, so communicative, personable, and absolutely so talented!! She saw just one sample photo of the sleeves and knew immediately what to do. I loved that she would text me every step of the progress, scheduled all meetings, was very detailed on what she would do, what fabrics she'd use, and she was very accurate with her lead times. More pros- pricing was very reasonable and there was ample parking at the building she works in! If you need alterations or customizations to your garments, go here!!!

    Lara was incredible to work with on my wedding dress alterations, and she truly went above and beyond the task of making sure my dress fit perfectly. She not only helped me with fit adjustments, but also helped with mobility and comfort concerns, styling recommendations, and made us a video for how to tie the bow in the back. I felt overwhelmed with indecision over small details for my wedding day look, and she helped me work through styling details regarding hair accessories, length of dress, cover-up ideas, and whether or not to have a bustle or wrist strap installed. Her professional opinion and many years of expertise made me feel more confident and less stressed after each visit to her lovely studio. During the alterations process she shorted the straps of my dress, changed the bra cups to be a close skin-tone match, adjusted a few vines and leaves, and did a crucial length adjustment as she helped me decide to remove the train of my dress. Our wedding venue was outdoors with lots of hard-packed dirt ground, and dancing was a top priority for me, so she figured out the perfect length hem to make it seem like I was floating on air and not dragging. My comfort in the dress for the whole day was all thanks to Lara's expert POV. So glad I got to work with her and I highly recommend her for your needs.

    My mom persevered her wedding dress hoping she'd have a daughter who could wear it one day. Soon after getting engaged I asked my mom for her dress. She responded with mixed emotions. She wanted me to wear it, but due to size and fashion differences between her at 25 and me at 30, the dress would need to be altered. That was difficult for her. I promised that I would honor the dress in my new design. So the hunt for a seamstress began. I did a DEEP dive into yelp. I had a few recommendations, but also just looked around top rated businesses. After many frustrating and disappointing appointments with dress makers who told me it was impossible, I met Lara. Lara was as excited about the project as I was! I wanted to reuse my mother's skirt, then reconstruct a bodice to match. She assured me that my vision could be done and immediately got to work. Everything with her went so perfectly! We found the perfect lace the first try. She let out my mother's skirt (which she wore on her hips) and it was the exact measurements to fit my waist! Each fitting was fun, comfortable, and collaborative. Lara was a joy to work with! She even helped FaceTime my mother so she could give her approval! All this for around $800! A off the rack generic David's Bridal dress would cost me more than that! On the day of my wedding, I was so comfortable. The dress fit like a glove. It was incredibly comfortable. It was well made and durable. No rips, tears, or any clothing malfunctions despite wearing it all day, playing a drum solo, and dancing the night away. So thank you to Lara for helping make my big day so special. I've never felt more beautiful!

    This review is 4 years overdue, but Lara is INCREDIBLE! I came to her to add a complex bustle to my wedding dress. Complicated enough that my gown shop was unsure how it could be done. She knew what to do immediately and it was stunning!

    Her beautiful dress on the right!

    I had a custom-made dress last spring because I was attending a bunch of weddings. I was tired of boring off the rack dresses, so I found Lara on Yelp. She is a talented dressmaker who was professional and creative. She met me at a fabric shop, talked me through what I imagined and made it a reality. It was a fun treat for myself and I'll love the special dress forever!

    This is a late post, but I had the pleasure of working with Lara on my custom wedding dress. I knew I wanted a custom made dress, because I wanted something in red. I researched multiple custom dress makers and based on customer service, cost, and flexibility I went with Lara and it was the best decision I ever made. When I first met Lara, she was very sweet and I instantly felt comfortable talking to her. I shared with her my vision of what type of dress I would like and she sketched it out for me. Next, we went fabric shopping together and unfortunately, we could not find the exact tone of red that I wanted. In no way during this process, did she try to change my mind on settling for any type of color/fabric. She was patient and offered to go to another fabric store while I was at work to look for the shade I wanted, and she did! We also went to look for the jewels for my dress and bought some, but along the dress making process, I wanted something different and Lara was totally understanding and went to buy different jewels based on my preference. Lara first made what I'd call a "draft" dress out of muslin to ensure the measurements and fitting were correct. After that, I had a few more fittings with my actual dress. You can tell Lara cares a lot about the quality of her work and her dress. She is not satisfied until you are satisfied because she knows how important the wedding dress is to her customers. There were a few minor adjustments we had to make along the way and Lara was always open to hearing them and making the necessary changes. At the end of the process, I was more than thrilled with my wedding dress and the experience with Lara. I felt like I made a friend along the way. There is no doubt that I would recommend Lara to anyone that wants their dream wedding dress to become a reality.

    I found Lara through our wedding planner. She was so fast, efficient, and such a steal! I brought two outfits to her, separates (including a wtoo skirt from bhldn) and another dress from a designer in LA. Both of my dresses fit relatively well at first and just needed a few tweaks and a MAJOR hem because I'm 5'2". However, as the wedding approached they began to get more and more snug. Lara fixed everything. She let one of the dresses out and did the same for a very full tulle skirt. She changed the shape of the back of the dress and lined the bodice. Lara also created a hook system to ensure that the top on my separates would stay in place. Of course everything was also hemmed and she kept the uneven layers and horsehair trim perfectly in place. She is a lifesaver and such a calm, pleasant presence in what can be such a stress inducing (at least it was for me) phase of life.

    AFTER

    Lara of Folklore Dress Studio was amazing with me. I was a plus size bride that purchased my dress from Strut Bridal. The dress was a floor model, but the lace and style were perfect. Accept for the straps....they were terrible. The store assured me their preferred alterations individual, Folklore, does amazing work. Well she did more then adequate, she made the dress perfect! She shortened the skirt, fixed the zipper, took in the bust, created a gorgeous bustle, and made new straps. She herself was an absolute pleasure to work with as well. Always happy, pleasant, and interested in making sure my dress was perfect. It was like I was her only customer every time I visited her for fittings. Her office was also nicely appointed. I would use her again for any formal gown I have. Check out the before and after pictures.

    The after and before. We started with a tube top and Laura completely remade the top from scratch.
    Vetta M.

    Laura made my dreams come true by completely remaking the top of my wedding gown. We started with a sleeves sweet heart tube dress and she created a (cropped top) and attached it to the top to make my dress something modest or (temple ready) to fit our specific religious needs. The lace was super intricate but she some how put everything together seamlessly. I was so happy with my dress, and felt like a million bucks because it fit me like a glove.

    Laura is truly amazing!! My dress fit like a glove!!!

    I cannot sat enough about Laura...I started speaking to Laura during the peak of COVID lockdown and my wedding was rescheduled 3 separate times. Laura was so responsive, understanding, and truly went above and beyond to help me throughout the entire year of rescheduling. On top of being incredibly kind.. she is an absolute wedding dress magician. My dress fits LIKE A GLOVE. She did such incredible work and made my dream come to life through every little detail. I am forever grateful!!!! Thank you Laura!!!!!

    Let me preface by saying "I don't do cardio" - I don't run and I most definitely don't spin. I've…read moretried it in the past a various different studios, big chains, smaller neighborhood ones, even ones like Barre Cycle or Yoga Cycle where you split the workout. By this point I felt like I gave it enough chances and it just wasn't for me. And that's ok. *Enter BeSpoke* I chose to try this studio because I work nearby and if you're like me, once I get home from work, I probably am not going to leave again to be active. Sign up was easy (online) as well as check in once you actually got to the studio. I don't know what I'm doing so I asked for him to set up my bike and even to clip in the shoes and the person at the desk that day (sorry I don't remember your name!) was super helpful. Class at any new studio, especially a workout you don't normally do, is intimidating, but I made it through my first class. And then my second class. And then after that I thought my office would enjoy the torture, err I mean cycling, so I ended up booking a private class! OMG TATYANA WAS THE MOST AMAZING HUMAN BEING. She helped me with every detail and made us feel extremely welcome the day of the class. She even had some refreshments for us! So sweet. Ok basically what I'm trying to say is GO TO THIS STUDIO. Even if you don't cardio or spin, give it a shot! All of the instructors I've taken so far have been great, Lynsey and Orlando to name a couple. I feel stronger and more confident only after a few classes. I don't do all the "moves" just what I can and I still have fun and get a great workout. The studio is located at Fig&7th, bottom level near the food court and across from Gold's. They have cubbies for your shoes and lockers in the restroom (this can get crowded for the after work people just FYI). They even have showers and some toiletries. I should mention that shoe rental is included as well as a sweat towel. They also have a water filling station or water for purchase if needed. No excuses! Super grateful to have had a really nice experience here and open up my mind!!! I guess I do cardio now ;)

    I've taken a few different classes here now and i've loved all of them!…read more First of all, the facilities are great. They're clean, well maintained, and have tons of amenities. The best part is THEY HAVE TOWELS. When you go into the bike room every single bike already has a clean rolled up towel on it for you to use during class, and when you leave the room there's a basket of moist cool towels to wipe down with, and in the shower there's clean shower towels to use if you want to shower. If you've never taken a spin class before, you will sweat and you will sweat A LOT, so having towel service and not have to bring your own towels every single class is a HUGE bonus. Especially if you're coming often, if you had to bring your own towels every time you'll be constantly doing laundry just to wash your towels. The restroom/locker rooms have everything you need, including showers fully stocked with soap, shampoo, and conditioner, and by the sink there's deodorant, lotion, and other toiletries you might want to use. Secondly, they rent out cycling shoes included with the class! Here's the amazing part: after you've taken your first class, they remember your shoe size and the next time you sign up for a class they'll have your shoes waiting for you in the little numbered cubbies by the front desk when you get there! So you just show up and see what bike number you are and your shoes will be in the cubby that correlates with your bike number. Lastly, the spin instruction is great! The classes are super high energy and motivating and an amazing workout. They incorporate various positions on the bike as well as an arms workout using some light weights, so even though you're technically taking a spin class you're getting a full body workout. For those who have taken a spin class before but at a 24 hour fitness or something, this something entirely different. This place is also great if you're new because at the beginning of every class they actually have an assistant come into the room and help you get set up on your bike. Every segment of the class is set to music that correlates with the bike riding, as well as lighting in the room. It really is a whole experience and the time really flies by even while you're getting an amazing workout. For those who have taken Soul Cycle, I'd say this is very comparable though the facilities are not as nice as a soul cycle. All of the teachers I've taken are great but I have to make a mention of OT, who teaches the Thursday evening 6:30pm class. I was blown away by her energy and enthusiasm and motivation. Like I literally felt like I was riding into battle with her leading the charge and I felt so pumped up both physically and emotionally. She also had an amazing playlist. Lastly, the front desk staff are friendly and helpful, and THEY VALIDATE PARKING. The facility is on the first floor of Fig @ 7th across from the gold's gym. The only thing I don't like about the studio is that the music is a bit on the loud side. They have a free jar of earplugs right before you go into the spin room so there's always that option if it's too loud.

He has always been honest with me. His staff and wife are such lovely people and truly the best medical team I have come across, and with my 11 specialists, I have come across many. I am so happy with my results. The pictures do not do my results justice; my skin looked worse in person, but my results look better in person, too. I cannot recommend Dr. Ho and Bespoke Dermatology enough. I will be their patient for life because I know they are honest and trustworthy with what can and cannot be done. I gained about 130 pounds after a car accident coinciding with a dying and dead thyroid. Now that I am losing weight, I will trust him with how to deal with the weight loss in my face and neck. I have fired at least 12-15 dermatologists for being liars or just dismissing me. Dr. Ho and his team partnered with me in the healing of my scars directly, and indirectly, the healing of my emotional scars having suffered with bad skin for the majority of my life. I feel so confident about my skin now, that I don't even wear makeup to work anymore. I just wear moisturizer and sunscreen. If you want a dermatologist you can trust, make an appointment with Dr. Ho and his team. Don't wait. The sooner you see him, the sooner you can address your skin concerns.

Pants were not made for wheelchair users in the sense that we need longer legs that won't ride up from sitting, wider waist line and room at the hips to accommodate "quad belly."

They listened to my concerns and wants regarding fit and comfort. Everything was tailored exactly how I asked..the arms were tailored for a fitted look and feel. Because they were knowledgeable to what I needed he made sure to leave room for movement (reaching and bending of arms) without sacrificing the look and feel. The length of my coat was trimmed and rests on my lap so perfectly. The back was trimmed so I would not be sitting on excess fabric and be uncomfortable while wearing it. I was already discouraged on buying a new suit in fear of having the same soggy look I always had, Ray and Eddie made sure I looked and felt exactly how I wanted and was as comfortable as I needed to be. 10 out of 10 recommended for any wheelchair users who wants a suit specifically tailored to their bodies and movement needs. *Also, wheelchair parking right in front.

    After seeing how beautifully Jerry crafted my friend's wedding suit, I knew immediately that I…read morewanted him to design and make both my suit and shirt for my own wedding. From the very beginning, Jerry took the time to guide me through the entire process of building my first custom suit. We carefully reviewed every detail, from the collar to the cuffs, and I quickly realized just how meticulous the art of suit-making truly is or perhaps that level of precision is simply Jerry's signature. At the first fitting, Jerry proudly presented the finished suit and shirt, walking me through every thoughtful detail. He explained the stitching, pointed out how the trousers were subtly tailored at the hem to drape perfectly over the shoes, highlighted the custom embroidery, and even showed the sweat guards sewn into the suit--along with countless other details I would have never noticed on my own. His enthusiasm and pride in his craft were unmistakable, and it was clear that he genuinely cares about creating something exceptional for his clients. I walked away with an incredible suit and tie, and an even greater appreciation for the craftsmanship and passion that Jerry brings to his work.

    This place is nice but maybe a little overrated…read more Jerry's not a bad guy and probably not a bad salesman. I thought I was coming in for a consultation, and I liked the fabrics and patterns we came up with, but he was disappointed that I was not ready to throw down $4,000 for the custom suit that day. (He convinced me that anything cheaper in his shop wasn't worth my time.) I can see why he likes to close the deal the day of. The more I thought about it, the less comfortable I felt throwing down than much for this suit... I had a few other reasons, too. Anyway, I sent a message to the store the next day, politely explaining why that I appreciated Jerry's time, but the shop wasn't for me. Jerry ended up calling me, and I wish I hadn't answered. He started trying to get me to get his cheaper stuff that had already talked me out of. He was pushy, dismissive of my reasons and all around unpleasant. I think they have some off the-rack suits available, too, and I believe they offer tailoring, but I am no longer interested. He'll probably respond to this and be dismissive again, but those are my two cents. He has a nice assistant. I won't pretend it's bad quality. Still three stars.
