This place if I were to describe it in one word it would be "classy" You're going to love the way you feel is an understatement. Will be going in for alterations on some of my suits and some cologne next month! Great quality suits!!! I will be getting a pinstriped one next month as well! 10/10 experience

We came for bridal accessories, and left gobsmacked at the nearly obscene amount of gorgeous,…read morereasonably prices dresses of all above mentioned varieties (quince, prom and bridal, as well as any formal event where your lady wants to show herself off). The showroom is absolutely packed with rows upon rows, sorted by color, sprawling out, above and around in a labyrinthine warren that overwhelms the senses, to the point of distraction. We only had about an hour's worth of time to find what we were looking for (shoes), and spent the entire time wandering the rainbow rows and fawning over dozens of dresses, from sexy and sultry to glamorous and gaudy. We were also hoping to find some hair extensions, which unfortunately Lady Secrets do not carry, but they were kind enough to provide the name and information of a partner store that does. I do not know of a better stocked dress retailer anywhere in Portland. Anywhere, actually. We will definitely return, when we have a special event and need to find the perfect dress to compliment the occasion. Heck, we might even make up an event just to have a reason to come back! P.S. My wife and I now enjoy a perverse pleasure in surreptitiously whispering the store's name "Lady Secrets" to each other at random intervals.

I bought a crown from here for my daughter's quince, we ordered it brand new from the factory and…read morewhen we got home and removed the crown from the bag it came in, we found that there were a total of 12 crystals that had fallen off the crown (and it hadn't even been tried on yet.) when we called to ask if they could fix it they said they could, we waited around 20 minutes browsing the store and the flea market next to it, but when we came back we found that they had HOT GLUED the crystals back on. It was done terribly and looked better broken.

We went in on Halloween day due to my son deciding last minute he wanted/ needed a suit for his Halloween costume. Hands down Bailey was & is the best. She was knowledgeable, helpful, kind, & patient beyond measure. my son didn't have a good idea of what he wanted but I knew it would have to be comfortable, good quality, & to his style. He's quite discerning about his clothes, especially his formal attire. Bailey pieced together suit pants, tuxedo shirt, blazer, vest, & a tie that my son not only loved, felt confident in, but was also comfortable. My son tried on so many things & we were in the store for what felt like hours (it was under 45 minutes thanks to how knowledgeable Bailey is) but Bailey never made me feel rushed or bothersome. Her no pressure, calm, & kind sales approach is why we left happy & will return again & again. My son looked epic on Halloween & at the opera! I can't say enough good things about this store. Bailey definitely deserves all the credit.

We went to Mr. Formal because it had better reviews and what seemed to be pricing than Men's…read moreWarehouse. We had a change of plans and needed a kids suit for my son to be the ring bearer in our friend's wedding. When we called to ask about pricing they said kids suits are around $80, this apparently only applies to little kids, think 1-6YO suits not big kid suits. Thinking it was affordable we decided to add a suit on the order for my 9YO which ended up costing us $167, it would have been an extra $30 for shoes that were not available to rent, we were told we would have to purchase, so we ended up getting dress shoes at goodwill for $7.99. No where in store or online do they have any transparency on pricing, but also so much so that I heard multiple people refer to the suit rental payment as a "deposit" not a down payment which implies a partial refund upon return in good condition as it is considered a good faith payment to ensure future services. We were given the impression that since it was a deposit we would be receiving some of our funds back. My fiancee went to return the suits and tried to reason with them that we never would have rented a suit for him at this price point and hoped we could at least receive partial refund. If you have the option shop for a kids suit elsewhere or get something tailored from goodwill. The Mr.Formal total will put you in the $200 range for shoes and a basic black suit which was the same price for all the adult groomsmen in the wedding. My parents rented their suits from here and other family over the years and I used to recommend them to everyone, including our friend's wedding on Sunday. Not worth the money and will not be recommending them again.

The woman working there (maybe the owner?) was so kind and helpful! She didn't have my exact color in stock, but not only did she give me the color number so I'd know what I was looking for when checking elsewhere, she also showed me how to repair and maintain to hairpiece I already had, and gave me tips for styling my short hair so that it would look long and Victorian! She took so much time helping me, even though I wasn't buying anything-- it's clear she has a passion for costuming, and enjoys sharing her extensive knowledge and experience. I will be back to this terrific spot whenever I need costuming supplies and advice!

The Monique L. boutique in Los Angeles only had certain styles available and for a hefty price tag of $650 each and the one that I wanted was discontinued. I then searched wedding websites galore to try and find used ones that might be for sale.....no luck! I eventually found Marina's wedding sash rental company. My prayers had been answered and I got to rent the exact Monique Lhuillier belt that I had been hunting for.....for a fraction of the cost! What a genius she is for creating a company of this sort. She also had belts and sashes from "Vera Wang" and other high end items like "Toni Federici" veils, "chanel" brooches and things of that nature. Everything that you could want to complete your couture look. She was very helpful in advising me what would go best with my dress and she also gives discounts for renting multiple items. I ended up wearing two different Monique Lhuillier belts....one for the ceremony and a different one for the reception. Marina was very easy to work with and made the whole process very simplistic.

All Marina's jewels, sashes and accessories are not only amazing to look at, but you're bound to find something you'll need for your wedding attire.

Best something borrowed you'll ever find. Good Wedding Luck~ Happy Bride

I stopped by David's bridal to look for a veil. Makenna greeted herself to me and I asked if I could try my dress on and try on veils with it and she said yes, which made me so happy seeing as that my dress is not from David's Bridal. She sat me down after I put my dress on to do a cute little half up/half down hair-do so that I could really envision myself on my wedding day. Makenna went the extra mile to find a veil that fit my needs and made me feel confident throughout the whole process. I kept getting compliments after compliments from her other co-workers and that was a confidence booster as well. So, thank you for your patience and helping me pick the perfect veil, Makenna. You are so so so sweet!
