This business is family oriented and they always make me feel at home. Few years ago we got our groom and groomsmen's attire from here. They made our experience perfect! The tailoring that Maria does is impeccable. She makes miracles happen. She once managed to extend my dress that didn't have much material in the stomach area to fit my pregnancy. The only downfall is parking. It's difficult to find parking yet that's not their fault. This part of town is always congested. I recommend parking on Merchant Street.

I wrote a review of Alan David Bespoke years ago, but after purchasing about two dozen suits, cashmere overcoat, and many linen trousers and shirts over the past five years, I feel it's time for another. I have read dozens of books on men's fashion, especially suits and fabrics. Here are three reasons I believe they are the best at what they do: 1. They offer an exceptional variety of world-class English and Italian fabrics from leading mills, with options for both colder and warmer months. 2. Working with Jay, my fitter, is a pleasure. I can show him designs I like on Instagram, and he works closely with me to bring those ideas to life while tailoring them to my body type. 3. Their prices offer outstanding value for the quality of their suits. I've attached several photos to illustrate my point. I recently wore their suits on the international stage at the World Championship of Public Speaking. Appearance is part of the judging criteria, and wearing Alan David gave me confidence that my attire was taken care of, allowing me to focus fully on my speech. I am a loyal customer for the rest of my life. Trust me and go here for your needs.

*updated stars after communication from owner*…read more I think the quality at Alan David is very good--my previous suit from them is excellent and gets frequent compliments. That's why I returned in May 2025 to order a sportcoat. Unfortunately, the customer service this time fell short of my expectations. By late August, I realized I hadn't heard anything about the order and called for an update. I was told the fabric had been out of stock and later delayed due to the factory's vacation schedule, which seemed reasonable enough. In September, they contacted me for a fitting, but the appointment date inadvertently fell on a holiday when the store was closed. I rescheduled for October. At that visit, I was told the jacket would be ready in a few weeks, but again, no one reached out. In December--more than six months after ordering--I called once more and received a text saying they'd follow up with an estimated date. When I expressed frustration about the lengthy delay, they acknowledged that the initial order had been submitted late, which contradicted earlier explanations. To their credit, they took responsibility and offered a generous store credit, which was appreciated but not expected. The reason for my three-star rating isn't the final product, which was fine, but the lack of proactive communication. I had to repeatedly contact them just to understand what was happening with an order that had been paid for months earlier. Even my salesperson at Macy's is more proactive--and I don't spend thousands of dollars at a time there. My husband has had consistently positive experiences at Alan David, so I do believe my situation was an outlier and wouldn't discourage others from trying them. They ultimately handled the service recovery well; I only wish the issue had been acknowledged and addressed earlier. My hope is simply that their follow-up and order tracking become more reliable moving forward because otherwise, you might be left with the feeling that once you've paid, nobody really cares.

Sandy went above and beyond, essentially taking the dress apart, undoing all the beading, remaking it to fit, and sewing back on all the beading. This was no small undertaking! I must admit I was quite nervous throughout the process. However, Sandy exceeded my expectations, and the gown fit perfectly. She truly is a master of her craft, and I cannot speak highly enough of her!

I was tired of not being able to find a suit that fits the body that I have rather than the body…read morethat retail shops want me to have. I'm 5'1" and athletically built with high shoulders and few curves to speak of. Enter Bindle & Keep, which I heard about on the recommendation of a friend. I entered their artistically minimalist warehouse tailoring ship to meet my tailor. He was pleasant and conversational, giving me advice about fabrics - what colors work well during specific seasons or with which accessories and for which occasions. I came away with a Donegal Tweed style fabric in a light charcoal with little "pops" of color threaded through. This shop measures not only your basic chest-shoulders-inseam-waist. They also measure customers at different points in order to create a truly custom made product. The way in which this process is done is non-invasive and tasteful. In addition, although they tell you that it could take up to 12 weeks to create the suit, mine was ready in less than 8 weeks. The final product - a three-piece suit with a shirt - was ideal. And they keep your measurements in case you would like to purchase something else in the future. Although the final product is not cheap, my suit is of a high quality that I would expect from a bespoke shop. I give Bindle & Keep my highest recommendation.

I came in with little idea of what I wanted to do, an they helped me cultivate my look based on the wedding setting and time of year, pick the fabric to make sure we were balancing style and comfort, and kept me in the loop with production, from start to finish. The suit was finished ahead of schedule, they made final adjustments, and it fit me perfectly. I felt cared for throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend Bindle and Keep for any big events you have planned.

I was impressed with the commitment to selling good quality shirts at a reasonable price. Shirts are offered in standard sizes, but what makes Proper Cloth different is the ability to create made to measure style shirts by taking a standard size, in my case 16" collar and 34" sleeve and adjust to your own measurements. Not only size though! Customization of the collar, pocket, buttons etc. The number of options are mind boggling. Make all the changes you want, place the order and ~2 weeks later the shirt shows up at your door. There are instructions to wash the shirt before trying it on. I did that and the shirt fit very well. I was quite happy. If you're not happy, record what the problem/s are and send the shirt back. Proper Cloth will fix the issues and send you a revised shirt. Overall, an amazing process and service! I have since ordered two more shirts in different cloths. A linen and light weight cotton. I have since honed the sizing to be absolutely perfect for me. I have thought about ordering custom pants, but I haven't gotten there yet.

After going to ten bridal stores I found my Mother of the Bride dress at Vesa. When I walked into…read morethe store I met Elsa who assisted me. I told her the color of the dress that I was looking for and she started pulling out gowns for me to try on and as she handed me one more gown she said "try this one on it just came in". As it turned out that gown became mine. I asked to have black crystal buttons sewn down the back. Elsa went shopping and texted me two different buttons asking which one I preferred. Her seamstress was amazing and the alterations were perfect. The store has a loft feeling, large windows that let in a lot of light and four racks of gowns that I had not seen anywhere else. Elsa also allowed me to take pictures of the gown, where other shop owners forbid it . That alone made me feel confident that she knows her business so well and puts her customers first . I had not experienced that level of comfort and caring in any of the other stores that I went to. Now you might ask how did I find out about Vesa? A coworker told me a friend of hers got her gown there. Brides and Mom's go to Vesa and check out their amazing selection and enjoy the wonderful customer service.
