Shareen has a gift. Highly recommend her! I came in having a pretty good idea of what I wanted. She listened and put together the perfect dress! She was patient with all of my questions and concerns. Trust her, and you will not be disappointed. Thank you Shareen! read more

so... yes my dress fit perfectly in the store, but then I went to my friend's wedding and ate a bit (sigh!) and pop - the back seam opened :( These dresses are really old and fragile, so be careful, and think twice when you buy something that just fits perfectly! The hook and eye closure on one of my dresses was broken in 3 places, so I need to fix that as well. read more

I was visiting NYC from LA for the weekend and decided to try on dresses here because they have a location in Los Angeles as well. I came in not really knowing what to expect and I had no idea what kind of a dress I wanted. I was able to make an appointment just a few days before with no problem, however I wish there was a way to book online through their website like other bridal salons. Shareen's is a little bit different from your average bridal salon. The way Shareen's bridal dresses work is that she has a bunch of sample styles that you can try on, but ultimately your dress will be custom made for your wedding, so it can be customized exactly to your liking. You can change the color of the slip, the amount of lace, the straps/sleeves etc. There is no dressing room here so you've got to be comfortable being mostly naked in front of the people you bring with you as well as your stylist! As for my appointment, my two friends and I had the place to ourselves. We didn't feel rushed at all and we got to walk around and pick out dresses and our stylist Casey also pulled some options for me as well. The dresses here are exactly what I was looking for - they feel unique and beautiful without being too formal or traditional. The style is kind of similar to BHLDN, but a little bit less boho. Our stylist, Casey, was the best stylist I've had at any bridal salon so far! She made me feel really comfortable and I felt like she really understood what I was looking for in a dress. She was easy to talk to and just made the experience so much more enjoyable. I'm so excited to go back to the LA location and try on my dress again!! read more

I would dedicate my vintage-love to this beautiful store everyday if I lived in NYC! Find yourself surrounded by wonderful colors and stunning fabrics, and just explore these treasures! There are plenty of them! The classic waste lines, the bold ballerina skirts, the glamorous velvet, and all the soothing silk that shines on the hangers is not just flattering, but for sure part of a grand vintage tail! After a visit, I am quiet convinced: if I live every day of my life in a vintage dress from Shareen I would never die! I bought one dress, but actually wish I had bought two! For a Norwegian it's quiet far to travel for my next visit.The price is not cheep, but seam decent when you think about the history they carry. Also; these dresses are unique! You will find something nobody has similar. The store is for females only, love the concept! No fitting rooms, It's like trying on clothes in a beautiful apartment surrounded by good and honest friends! Looking forward to my next visit. See you next time Shareen! read more

BEST WEDDING DRESS SHOPPING EXPERIENCE WITH SHAREEN. She is an absolutely master of design, and worked with my lower-end budget quite nicely. Shareen answered the phone and made my appointment, fit me in the next day, and was gracious and searched the entire inventory for dresses that fit my desired "look" and some others that she felt would look beautiful on me. Well, she was right. Every dress she chose fit like a glove, looked lovely and classy, but had a unique touch and made me feel gorgeous and ready for my wedding. In the end I picked something in a style I had not intended, but it was *perfect*! The boutique is gorgeous inside, don't let the plain exterior of the building make you think anything else. Shareen went above and beyond in every respect, and even made me a little veil and a waist ribbon accent to go with my dress. I'll definitely be back! She is amazing! read more

Shareen - Part of the main room of the boutique - Bridal Near Me - New York, New York

See all

FYI: this store has a strict "no boys allowed" policy and no change rooms. The idea is that customers can just change comfortably anywhere in the boutique. The store's front (merely a red dress hanging outside with no sign) and hours are weird, as if trying to cultivate a feeling of exclusivity in customers (you're a member of our secret girl club!) while still courting publicity from every external channel possible like the New York Times and reality tv. No problem--in the end, if Shareen is able to keep the prices low and the rotating stock full of coveted pieces that you couldn't find on eBay without a headache, Shareen Vintage in New York will continue to be a fantastic place to shop. (I haven't visited the original LA location so I do not have a point of comparison there). read more

I had my wedding dress made from Shareen, and though the dress is beautiful, there are some kinks that I wish I could have been happier with. To start with, the girls that work here are SUPER nice and provide superb customer service. They are gems! My problem was with my dress. I had it specifically made to my body, but when it arrived, it was too snug on the waist and wayyyy too long. I had my measurements taken so I'm not sure why this was the result. And I definitely lost weight since I was measured so if anything, the dress should have been loose on me. It's just annoying to pay a lot of money to have something made to your body, only to have to get it altered. If it's written down that I'm 5'2" and plan on wearing short heels, why is my dress insanely long (and crooked) at the bottom? If I'm paying a pretty penny for a dress AND am providing my measurements, I expect my dress to be made well and to fit my body. That's not asking for too much, is it? In any case, I am grateful to the girls at Shareen for being so nice throughout the process. I just wish I didn't have to get work done on it! read more

We arrived at Shareen's looking for a wedding dress and were instantly pulled into her exciting fairytale world of dresses made from fine fabrics that flow and flutter. Shareen graciously worked with my budget and created the wedding dress of my dreams! She really made sure it was perfect down to the smallest details. Working with her was one of my best wedding planning decisions, and I'm so grateful that she shared her talent with me. read more

Shareen - Dream dress - Bridal Near Me - New York, New York

*Five Stars for Frankie - young, fun chick who helped me. She was super nice and super excited for me* On to Shareen, her attitude towards me right from the beginning was short and rude. Frankie tried her best to help me find what I was looking for and we narrowed down the dresses to a handful. Shareen interjected only to make me feel like I was inconveniencing her. Once she found out my price point, her attitude turned even more frosty. She said she was going to search for a dress for me, only to find her helping another client. Once I saw that, I told Frankie there was nothing in there for me. I quickly changed and as I was walking out, Shareen quite dismissively told me she was sure I'd find something somewhere else. Customer service to ALL your clients, no matter their budget, should always come first. I've never been treated like that before - a total "Pretty Woman" moment. Shareen should follow Frankie's lead (and treat her employees good - that's a whole other story). read more

Shareen Vintage was just an okay experience. I expected the apartment it is housed in to be more glamourous and awesome. It wasn't it look very much like your average persons apartment but dustier, and rustier. It also wasn't sexy leaving my purse on the couch next to strangers. ( required of all customers) I didn't care for the collection. The only things I liked were made by Shareen herself. Which cost a pretty penny but the value didn't match the price. Don't get me wrong I am no penny pincher by a long shot. I just like to throw down a few hundred or so on things that are worth it in construction ( fabric, cut, drape, design). My favorite fashion blogger Karla's Closet ranted and rave about it. I wanted to love it. Another disappointment. Maybe the LA store so much more fab? Maybe the winter pulls are much more fab? Left much to be desired. read more

Mission: party dress for Kate Spade 20th anniversary celebration Judging from the reviews I thought this would be the perfect place to go to find something no one else would have (can't wear actual Kate Spade) but still the label's feminine, vintage, and modern vibe. I rang the bell and was buzzed in. I liked the salon setting already (like I was just going to someone's apartment). The receptionist at the desk explained to me which racks to look at for my operation: the one closest to the wall (under $200), Shareen's line in a side room, and then in the back the real shit. I was really looking to spend $100-$200...maybe $250 so I stuck to the first two options. Just all too eighties! Maybe my mission was too specific, but I just thought there'd be more variety. ...Nonetheless, something about the hidden-ness, the fact that I didn't really have time to look in the back (off-mission), and I did see some casual pieces from the corner of my eye I was intrigued by does make me want to check this place out again under different glasses. read more

For one of the best vintage shopping experiences, you absolutely must come to Shareen Vintage. Located in an unassuming apartment building with its signature red dress hanging from the fire escape, Shareen Vintage draws in all the ladies in the know. It's an excellent welcome escape from all the hustle and bustle from all the other retail stores in Flatiron. Just ring the buzzer and wait for the girls at Shareen to grant you access in the building. I've found some amazing vintage dresses for under $62 that I can wear from day to night that magically fit my body. The key is finding clothes that generally fit (of course some minor alterations may be needed as with all vintage), so you don't break the bank with all the beautiful pieces abound. Tori and Sarah, two of the nicest ladies you'll meet, will also pull some dresses if you have a special occasion in mind and if you describe your general style. The collection designed by Shareen is on the more expensive side with pieces ranging from $90 and up to gorgeous wedding gowns that are $1,000+. They are all well made with gorgeous fabrics and prints. While not the cheapest vintage option, Shareen Vintage is a great experience to find that one-of-a-kind vintage that you will cherish for years. read more

This was seriously one of the best vintage / wedding / dress shopping experiences I've ever had. If you love vintage and one of a kind pieces, you have to take the trip to Shareen's. My appointment was with Tori (she was amazing and helped make the whole experience super special). If you are looking for something unique and memorable, schedule an appointment. It's totally worth it. read more

In a world of cheesy, fluffy wedding dresses, Shareen is a unique store filled with gorgeous simple yet greatly designed dresses that truly fit a modern bride that wants to feel special and festive without losing herself in glitter and layers of tule. I came to a meeting not expecting much and ended up falling in love with every single dress I tried. It was a really hard choice! I ended up going with a dress, well a 2 piece dress, that really felt like my style but elevated. Very simple but says a lot with its simplicity and it was the perfect choice for me and for a casual beach wedding on the Mediterranean. And the price was pretty affordable too compared to other designer dresses that end up looking like everything else. And of course the service was perfect from beginning to end. Tori was super helpful, friendly, knowledgable without ever being overbearing. Made me feel really comfortable and eased on the decision making. I definitely recommend Shareen to any future bride that sees the beauty in simplicity and doesn't want to look like all other brides on her special day. read more

I loved my experience at Shareen! I stopped in to try on wedding dresses. It was my first day trying on dresses, so I didn't really know what to expect. Frankie worked with me during the appointment, and she was amazing. She was sweet, helpful and very knowledgeable. She kept coming up with different ways to help me customize a dress. I would highly recommend her and Shareen bridal for a great experience!! read more

Bridal dress shopping is truly a nightmare. Do yourself a favor and visit Shareen, who will craft the perfect dress that presents your body in the best light. She learns what works and doesn't effortlessly, by testing different tops and bottoms. I was shopping with some of my friends from high school, and our time with Shareen was a respite from an otherwise chaotic day learning just how unflattering traditional bridal dresses can be. Her space only accommodates one group at a time, so it truly is a personal experience that I can not recommend highly enough. read more

While I didn't end up purchasing my dress here, I wanted to write about the wonderful experience I had with Frankie, who was helping me pick out dresses. Frankie was LOVELY -- she made it so fun for me and my mom. The fabrics are incredible and the cuts were perfect on me -- not a lot of curves anywhere, smaller bust, and a shorter waist. Shareen is truly a master of design & fabric, and all of the dresses seemed to me to be of incredible value. Most of the other dresses I found elsewhere seemed to always be so gaudy, but Shareen's are classic, flowing (oh, so much beautiful flowing fabric!), clean-lined, and luscious. I had shopped many places before coming here, and I almost couldn't believe the prices...while not cheap by any means (at ~$800-1600), they did not go anywhere near to what a new, in-season dress usually costs (and these are made to fit your measurements -- no paying extra for alteration!). So, I can't speak to the process of actually getting the dress, but it was hella fun to try them on. Give Shareen a shot! read more

Shareen is the most wonderful designer. She's got this brilliant system of having various "floating pieces" and being able to put them together so you can get whatever your heart desires. That bell sleeve with the corset top? Done. Cap sleeve with deep v neck top? Done. And all her fabrics are super high quality. Skirt with a train silk train or a lace train? She can do it all! On top of being an amazing designer, Shareen is so so nice. I would give Shareen 10 stars if I could! You absolutely need to take the time to visit Shareen as you shop for your special day. read more

Shareen has a phenomenal selection and showers you with the most amazing amount of attention when shopping for a dress. I brought my daughter to her after going to many other places that could not compare to the product and value that Shareen offers. Shareen allows you to basically design your own wedding dress by picking out the bottom, top, sleeves, neck, ...every type of silhouette option is possible. My daughter was extremely detailed oriented and Shareen went out of her way to please her. She even brought us to pick out the perfect beaded fabric for my daughter. Shareen also has very generous hours...will even take evening and weekend appointments. We went on a Sunday at 4:30pm! I highly recommend Shareen for every bride. She can work with a reasonable budget and can even satisfy most any time frame. The personal service you get is unparalleled and her dresses are stunning. read more

Shareen exceeded our expectations times a million with our daughter's wedding dress! She's a genius! Honestly, the fabric, design, fit and overall aesthetic was just gorgeous. Thanks Shareen, for the most beautiful wedding dress! The photos don't even do it justice. And we watched other perspective brides get the same personalized treatment. We could not have asked for a better designer read more

I almost don't want to write a review for Shareen because I want to keep it a secret, but this is seriously my Meatball Shop of clothing. I'm. Addicted. Every time I tell someone about this store I end up talking for five minutes straight and go into detail about every gorgeous piece I've purchased. And inevitably, the person will save the address in their phone because they can't wait to experience this little vintage heaven themselves! The girls are all incredibly sweet and knowledgable, but honest- if it doesn't look good they'll tell you straight up and if your boobs aren't going to fit in that, they'll let you know. Hours easily pass playing dress up here, and the ladies genuinely enjoy pulling pieces for you and helping you find the perfect dress or a lovely outfit for everyday wear. They love that moment when you put something on and it was clearly meant for you- almost as much as you do! I truly can't praise Shareen enough. Don't be modest- walk in, strip down and prepare for the best vintage shopping experience this city has to offer. read more

I'm usually on the fence with vintage clothes and thrift shops and feel kind of weird about buying used clothes, but my friend wanted to check out Shareen's on my latest trip to NYC, so off we went. We were a little confused when we got there since it looked like a regular apartment building from the outside, but we were directed to the 2nd floor by a woman hanging out outside and made our way upstairs. At first, Shareen's seemed a bit overwhelming. There are multiple rooms absolutely filled with clothes. We were quickly informed by the uber friendly sales girls about the differences between the rooms and we started flipping through the racks. We both found an item or 2 that we thought would be fun to try on, with little intention of actually buying said items, so we headed to the "changing room" (warning: you will be changing in front of everyone in the store, so this is not a place for the self-conscious... they only allow women inside, but still). Our first selections didn't quite work out, but the sales girls were soon bringing us item after item that they thought we'd like. It was really fun! Some of the items were a bit outlandish, but we both ended up finding really cool stuff that we otherwise wouldn't have given a second look to. Also, this place is great if you're petite or otherwise small. They have a HUGE selection of clothes in small sizes. Shareen's is NOT cheap. It's insanely expensive, actually, especially considering that everything is second hand. So don't come here if you are looking for crazy bargains. You may find some, but it's unlikely. Especially since their prices aren't listed out and seem very arbitrary (one of the girls just tells you how much something costs when you ask). Instead, come here if you are looking for some cool pieces to spice up your wardrobe or if you're looking for something awesome for a special event or party. read more

The post below which describes Shareen as a true artist gets it right. This was hands down the best experience I had shopping for wedding dresses and I went to eight or so stores. Shareen has sample tops and skirts that she works with you to combine into the ideal dress, which is then made to order. It is a great opportunity to get a truly personalized wedding dress. Shareen knew what styles would work best with my figure. She has great taste, and she also listens. When I said that I was looking for something classy and minimalist that still flattered my curvy figure, she understood right away. Shareen spent over an hour with us and we never felt rushed. She worked methodically trying on different tops and skirts until we found the perfect silhouette and combination of fabrics. All of her dresses are classy, modern, and elegant! read more

Shareen is a genius and a gem. As a picky, off beat-ish type bride, I had a difficult time finding a stylist that really "got" me. Shareen is a true artist, and has a serious eye for design coupled with an out-of-this-world intuition. What I experienced with her is incomparable to many other bridal businesses - big & small. If you want a true artist styling you for your big day- that gets YOU from the inside & out- Shareen's your girl. read more

I am in absolute love with this place! The staff is friendly, the prices are reasonable. I always find the most adorable dresses. Its a place I really don't like sharing much. But I guess now you know. :-) read more

Shareen Vintage is an absolute gem of a vintage store. Mostly sells dresses and belts but oh, what dresses and belts! Found a great teal silk dress for $44 and the bestie got a beautiful Argentinean leather belt for $20. Steals! They have a huge inventory and everytime I go, I never see the same dresses. Moral of the story: if you see something you love, buy it! You won't find it anywhere else. read more

I cannot say enough positive things about my experience buying my wedding gown from Shareen. For some background, I'm kind of introverted, and I'm not comfortable being the center of attention. So the whole bride thing makes me a little anxious. On top of that, this is my second marriage, and I come from a pretty conservative family. I was looking for a nontraditional gown for my small, intimate wedding. My fiancé and I planned our wedding pretty quickly, and I started to realize I'd have to choose a gown quickly too, so there would be enough time to have it tailored, etc. I was panicking about it one night, trying to figure out where to go, what to wear. The idea of going to some big commercial dress shop and buying into the whole wedding business just grossed me out. My fiancé saw me worrying and decided to help me, searching for where I could go to get a "different" type of gown. One of the first places he found in a google search was Shareen's shop. I looked at some photos and emailed her that night. The next morning I had a response, and that afternoon I had an appointment in the shop. Shareen is warm, friendly and welcoming. It was SUCH a relief to immediately feel at ease, when other places just made me feel uncomfortable and out of place. She asked me a few questions to get a sense of my style, then immediately pulled out a bunch of dresses and started trying them on me. I loved all of them. They are delicate, beautiful, and make you feel wonderful. On top of that, Shareen designs all of her gowns, so she knew what would flatter my body type. The other shop I tried was much more commercial, and I felt like all the dresses were designed for willowy model types. Shareen's dresses made me feel beautiful and feminine, and not self-conscious. I liked 2 on my first visit, then returned a few days later with my mom and my close friend. They liked the same ones but weren't completely sold on them. On a whim, Shareen grabbed another dress (something I definitely wouldn't have tried on my own, and boom, it was the one. The buying experience was perfect. Because she designs all the dresses, Shareen can tweak them to fit your individual body. For instance, I have Cuban hips, and need a little more room, so she combined two sizes of dresses- one for the bodice, and one for the bottom part. The slip was altered so the straps were slightly wider (so I can wear a bra), and slightly higher in the middle (it plunged a little too much for me at first). NO commercial bridal shop will do this for you and include it in the cost of the dress. I had multiple fittings, and she made sure that every last detail was perfect. My dress is so lovely, I can't wait to wear it. Bottom line, if you are a nontraditional (or self-conscious) bride like me, Shareen is your shop. She is sweet, helpful, and a perfectionist. You will leave her shop feeling affirmed, and well cared for. I actually cried my eyes out when I picked up my dress today. I don't usually get emotional over anything wedding-related, but I had such a great experience, I will really miss my appointments at Shareen's shop now that we are done. I will definitely keep in touch, and next time I need a gown for an event, I have my eye on a beautiful red gown she has in the shop... read more

I am in love with this store, Shareen and the staff! I bought my wedding dress on Ebay, and it arrived 6 sizes too big and dirty. My best friend, who is a regular at Shareen's store in LA, emailed them and they told her I should come in. I stopped by and Shareen sold me an AMAZING wedding dress that was completely me. She found it in a back room, and it turns out that it was the wedding dress that she wore when she got married. She sold it to me for $72. The dress was a one-of-a-kind experience, just like my first trip to Shareen Vintage. I will be back anytime I need a dress. read more

Excited because of reviews but inventory was very disappointing. Found a vintage givenchy blazer at Stella Dallas earlier in the day and there was not a single thing that jumped out at shareen. Not well curated. Skip. read more

Shareen has wonderful staff, who took time to put me in 8-10 dresses and helped me pick the right one. They have a lovely parlor where my girlfriend's and mother could sit during the consultation. The dress came in exactly when they said and they sized me perfectly so I don't have to get alterations! If you are looking for high quality service, this is the place! Just look for the dress on the fire escape! read more

Really great experience with Shareen! I was only in town for a week so I could try on wedding dresses with my mom there and Shareen did not have the specific dress I was looking for but showed me a photo of one I might like that was at her LA location. I was very interested in trying it so she rush shipped it so we could come back and try it on before I left the area. It did not end up being the one for me but I was so impressed with her genuine attention and accommodation for us. Highly recommend the experience. read more

Shareen did an amazing job making my wedding dress, and I highly recommend her and her staff. I live in DC and the wedding was in Southern California, so I was able to work with both the NY and the LA locations. Shareen herself is clearly very dedicated to her craft and puts in the time to ensure that the dress she makes is exactly the dress you want. She has a variety of dresses, tops, and bottoms in different colors and fabrics, so you can basically mix and match and get a dress unique to you. Shareen and Frankie (her associate in LA) were patient as I basically tried on every combo I could before deciding. Shareen even accompanied me to a by-appointment lingerie shop in NYC to find the perfect undergarments. Shareen, Erika (another associate in LA), and the seamstresses worked meticulously to make my vision come to life, and I couldn't be more grateful. The dress was beautiful, and their dedication, patience, and personalized attention was beyond compare. No email or silly question from me went unanswered. I can't imagine a comparable service for the price that I paid. I loved the dress so much that I even wore it for two nights in a row during our Las Vegas mini-moon! Do not hesitate to work with this wonderful team. read more

I have never felt more comfortable and beautiful in a dress. Shareen designed a gown for a high profile red carpet event, and I had questions and comments about it all night! The process was effortless - I had an initial appointment in New York with Shareen and then a fitting and alterations in LA. Her staff and seamstresses in LA were so attentive and FAST, and Shareen was a part of the process (via Skype!) the entire time. Thank you Shareen for making me feel like a princess and designing a dress I will wear over and over again. read more

Best experience of my life! Shareen is hands down the best at what she does. I traveled from Boston to NYC to find the perfect wedding dress that was non-traditional, I wanted that "something different". My mother, sister and I went to all of the popular named bridal stores, one after the other on that Saturday. After having a breakdown at two of the bridal shops about the dresses running to small and me not being able to find anything to fit my body type I was completely done with the experience. My sister insisted I go to the last store on her list for that day which happened to be Shareen. When we got there Shareen told me how beautiful I was and how she could make the dress to fit my body and accent all of the great things about me. She held two parts of a dress up in front of me and I started crying because I had finally found what I had been looking for. The next challenge was wanting my wedding dress to be ORANGE. :-) After my sister, mother and I left Shareen's that day we spoke nothing but high praises about how positive she made us feel and it really uplifted our spirits to enjoy the rest of our weekend in NYC. I made a few trips for fittings and measurements and finally three weeks before the wedding I got to see the final product. My God! I loved it, I loved it, I loved it! I sent pictures to my mom and sister and they loved everything even down to the color. Shareen even gave my mom and sister suggestions for the colors of their dresses so that it would compliment mine. Needless to say I received so many compliments on my wedding day about the dress and how I looked like a princess. Even two weeks after I heard nothing but positive things about the dress and how astounded everybody was with Shareen's work and how it was possible to have an orange wedding dress. From a girl who doesn't like to wear dresses or skirts, this took the cake for me. I thank Shareen and her LA team a million times over for making me shoulder straps in case I was self conscious about my arms or backs, for making alterations to my bridal bra so that it blended perfectly with my dress. Shareen and her team stopped at nothing to make all of this perfect for me and shipped it to me in Boston with more than enough time to spare. Thanks a million for the best experience ever as a bride. read more

I strongly recommend Shareen to all brides, it was seriously one of the highlights of all of my wedding planning. She is so warm, talented, genuine, smart, funny, and cares so deeply about her clients and the work you do together. I LOVED my dress and the process was so memorable, special, and fun. It was made with love, care, attention to detail, and was everything I had hoped for. So much more special than a dress made in a warehouse or factory. This dress was made for me and Shareen's vision was spot on. We had the most fun collaboration with my dress. She spends so much time making sure everything is perfect and even went shopping with me for trim. I loved spending time with her and really enjoyed going to see Shareen for my fittings and measurements. I am so glad I worked with Shareen, it was a really incredible experience. Whenever I tell friends that I had a custom dress made just for me that didn't break the bank, they are shocked (and for friends who are already married, they're jealous!) I am truly grateful to have met her and for the amazing work she did for me in making my special day even that much more incredible. read more

Run, do not walk, away from this establishment. With one week to go before my wedding the seamstress which Shareen sent me to ruined my wedding dress. (This was after said seamstress had the dress for three weeks and had 'forgotten' to do the alterations when they were originally to be completed). Shareen's answer when I asked her for an alterative seamstress/tailor to correct the work? "You're in New York, there are tailors on every corner." Shareen wanted to 're-make' my wedding dress (which would have had a delivery date of two days before my wedding-- after what had happened this was not an okay solution). I needed the dress I had fixed-- she didn't quite understand that. When I found a replacement seamstress, they advised that the time and cost needed to fix the gown (as there was so much that had gone wrong, was not worth the trouble given the shortness of time. I requested my money back and Shareen said no. I disputed the transaction with American Express and after Shareen failed to respond, they decided in my favor and credited me. What does Shareen Vintage do? Re-charge my card (without my ok) using the old authorization code! That is *not* how a transaction dispute works. The owner is unprofessional and customer service is nil. read more

I have never left a review on yelp but felt so passionately about my experience with shareen that I feel I need to say how absolutely amazing shareen and her shop is!! She is truly the kindest person who's first priority is to make YOU feel amazing and design you the dress that YOu want! After going, all my friends are now looking forward to going back to shareen for their future weddings. There is NOThING like this in NYC , trust me I know . The most personal, amazing and heart warming experience you will have !! read more

Shareen made my bridal dress and it is perfect! Shareen was super nice and patient, and attended to all of my requests. The dress was made with attention to the smallest details and in a timely manner. I cannot be happier with it! read more

I am in Heaven... Went here yesterday with my "bestmaid" hoping to find my wedding dress. I was still smiling this morning when I woke up. This place is quaint, unique and full of interesting finds. Tori was the best and made me feel like the stars were lined up just right when I saw my dress. thank you 3 times:) read more

After I got engaged, I put off shopping for a wedding dress for 364 days. Then, while visiting my sister in New York last weekend, she took me to this vintage shop she had heard about. It turned out to be Shareen's, and the next day I was on an airplane accompanied by a gorgeous vintage wedding dress that fit me like a glove. Sarah, who helped us while we were there, was incredibly kind and helpful. The boutique is beautiful, and as a vintage fiend, a dream come true. If I lived in New York, this shop would bankrupt me in short order and I wouldn't even mind. Though I was looking for a vintage dress, I also tried Shareen's "Erin" wedding gown. It might be the most flattering dress I've ever worn. I'm seriously considering buying one just to have in my closet, because I know I could throw it on and look smashing at any fancy event. Anyway, if you love vintage, or dresses, or laid-back but still high-end shopping experiences, go to Shareen's. read more
