The jewelry selection was also nice; I may return to purchase a necklace and bracelet set I thought would be great for work but to also dress up some more casual pieces. Staff welcomed me when I entered the boutique which I appreciate and does affect whether I purchase something or not (as well as if I ever return to the store.) I had a nice conversation with one of the associates as I completed my purchase. The store also has seating which is great for boyfriends, husbands, and significant others. I also really loved the tags that were attached to each item which shows customer appreciation. I'm looking forward to returning to this boutique later this month for their 2nd Anniversary event!

I just got some bow tie pasta earrings as a gift, they're amazing. The staff (seems like 2-3 women) are all genuinely friendly and actually care, more than many of the other boutiques in Chicago where employees just sit behind a counter. Would recommend this to locals and visitors!

Excellent selection. However, the female owner was rude and asked if I "were to look through every…read morerack." Made it seem like I was going to steal something. I read the previous reviews on Yelp. On spot. I noticed the cashier kept suggesting to this taller blonde lady about how the dress will look beautiful on her. She suggested that the blonde lady try on the dress. However with me, the cashier ignored me. Wow. Talk about stellar (selective) customer service. The owner mentioned, "I buy everything and I need to pay the rent". Why say that to a complete stranger? Ok. I will take my business elsewhere then.

I said I'm not shopping for myself, I'm shopping for someone else and then She stood right in front of the rack so I couldn't even shop it. I picked up earrings at one point to look at that were out in the open not in a case and she practically jumped on me. I would absolutely never go back in the store and would never purchase anything. She was the most unwelcoming person I've ever encountered.

One of the highlights of my time as a customer was visiting Erika in Chicago to create my own customized dirndls- the process was so fun, collaborative, and truly special. She listened to every idea and brought it to life with her signature creativity and attention to detail. Each piece I've purchased has been beautifully made and wonderfully unique, and I always get compliments whenever I wear them. Rare Dirndl isn't just a brand to me -- it feels like a partnership in creating something meaningful. I absolutely cannot wait to collaborate with Erika again on my 2026 custom!

If you're having a custom one made your dress in is good hands, Erika has made and worn countless dirndls and will help you make yours special and unique to you. As a bonus Erika gave us some tips about some local establishments and B and I started an impromptu German pub crawl. She is a wealth of knowledge and amazing at what she does.
