I love the store overall... the items are unique and they have so many fun things and great pieces…read more It is pricey but it is a 'one of a kind piece' kind of place. Things go fast, so if you like something, don't think on it too long. The reason for the 4 of 5 instead of 5 of 5 stars... Staff is hit or miss... i have had some fantastic ladies help me, but i have also been looked down upon by one lady when i was there who got mad that i was looking at something on a rack (which is not labeled "hold rack" or anything, and looks like all of the others). I pulled something out to look at it and she flipped out and said "THAT IS MY STUFF, LEAVE IT ALONE"... that was rude and soured my taste a bit, but the others i have dealt with are very nice. Wish they had a website we could buy through. I have to go there as my Dad's personal buyer for my mom all the time (they live out of town), and it is a pain. They don't have a website with all of their items online so you must go in.

Walked out of Betsy Jenney today empty-handed. Not because I didn't see things that would have…read moreworked on me, but because the lone salesperson felt it was appropriate to have a loud phone conversation - with the other woman who I think was the owner, on SPEAKER - discussing politics, the election, "Pelosi and her cronies" ... how wonderful Rudy Guliani is, Dems stealing the election from Trump, etc. I do not begrudge anyone their opinion, but this is a place of business. This should have been a private discussion. I was the only customer in the store...there was no need for the saleswoman to have this conversation on speaker. It was bizarre. I kept giving her a look to suggest "pls take your conversation private" but she apparently can't read the room. On my way out I told her "I'm leaving because of the conversation you're having right now." I don't need to listen to political BS while I'm shopping. It's supposed to be a respite from all all.

I spent (wasted) hours trying on dresses for my daughter's wedding. I was ordering on line and…read morereturning upwards of 20 dresses when my sister suggested going here. What a great idea! Soka has a wide variety of dresses, and each one is unique! I quickly selected about ten to try on and then found the PERFECT dress. It was quite a bit more money than the on-line dresses, but when you consider your time, it was well worth it. Soka is low key. There was no pressure from her at all to buy a particular dress. She spent a lot of time pinning the dress for alterations to get a perfect flattering fit. If you are frustrated shopping for a mother of the bride dress, definitely give her a try.

I went in here after not being able to get into one of the other tailor shops nearby…read more Soka was the most helpful with altering a bridesmaid dress in such short notice. The dress was huge on me and she had to take it in from every angle. I was ready to pay north of a $100 because the dress needed so many alterations. When she gave me my receipt, the whole thing cost $80!! I was pleasantly surprised.
