I received an immediate response that none were available. No problem. I asked if I could get a exchange the dress for another item. NO RESPONSE and I've emailed several times. It's cool though. I thought I had found a boutique that I could buy from and build a relationship with. It's not the case, I guess. So if you order from here, make SURE you get your correct sizes. Spoke to the owner today. She was very nice. I believe in second chances! I'm sending the dress back, and ordering something else using the credit received. I'm looking forward to shopping here again.

If you're thin, this store will likely work for you. The maximum jeans size they typically carry is…read morea 34" waist (you might get lucky and find a single 36"). I asked whether larger sizes were simply out of stock or not ordered at all, and was told they generally only order up to 34". The team is friendly and the prices are reasonable. I've been visiting for years and have watched the space grow. That said, the lack of size inclusivity is disappointing. If you don't care about broader size availability and fall within their range, it may be worth checking out--the shop is well curated in theory. Personally, as someone who isn't thin, I likely will not return to a store that doesn't prioritize size inclusivity.

My fiance came looking for maybe a tie or pocket square to match my dark purple wedding dress, but also wanted to check out the Oxfords and suits. He ended up leaving with a perfect vintage suit that will only need minimal tailoring, a pocket square, a tie, as well as a casual shirt, all for less than the cost of renting a suit somewhere. Plus, gotta love supporting a shop like this -- in business 11 years and clearly going strong; there were 5 or 6 people shopping in there at the same time! And Richard was hopping from one to the next effortlessly. In addition to clothes, there are other vintage finds such as paintings/photos, cocktail accoutrements, and matchbooks. Richard himself works most days but said Sundays he has an assistant so that he can check out estate sales himself. He obviously takes pride in finding wonderful and unique pieces for his shop, and said that everything gets dry cleaned before selling (so it doesn't have the musty smell of some vintage shops). My fiance appreciated the thoughtful layout of the shop. It is obvious that we will be back to check out more fabulous finds!

While enjoying pedis with a friend she informed me she still didn't have a rehearsal dinner dress…read morefor her wedding, which was just 2 weeks away. Yikes! We dried our toes, hopped in the car and headed to Damen with the hopes of finding something at Marc Jacobs, Cynthia Rowley or perhaps Nanette Lepore. Marc and Nanette let us down (absolutely nada!) and we found 1 good option of Cynthia Rowley. Before settling on the Cynthia Rowley dress we decided to pop into p45 to see if they had anything. My goodness....I always forget how cute this boutique is! Unfortunately, I can't buy anything in normal boutiques right now due to Baby R, but as soon as I shed those pregnancy pounds later this year p45 will be one of my first stops. Our sales gal, Tricia, was beyond helpful! She wasn't pushy in the least bit and really wanted to make sure my friend absolutely LOVED her rehearsal dinner dress. She ended up finding us a beautiful dress that was just perfect...and on sale (score!). She even gave my friend heels, a strapless bra and stockings to try it on. They really have it all here! Now if only they could start carrying maternity clothes for me...

I want to say I am so happy to hear that this boutique is still around in 2019. I recall when it…read morefirst opened up and I went and visit back in 1999 as I live in New York.

There is a lot to like about Dearborn Denim, with just one caveat at the end…read more What I like: + The jeans are made in Chicago. While I am not someone who completely avoids clothing made overseas, I feel good about wearing something that contributes to the local economy and is made by someone working in safe conditions for a good wage. + The jeans are a good cross between rugged and comfortable (especially after a little wear-in). While I would not wear these to a construction site or run in them, they work well for an office worker with a cat. What I mean is, they are soft enough that I don't feel abrasion or scratchiness from all-day wear. At the same time, when my cat greets me at the door with claws extended, I am not as worried about holes or damage as with other, more expensive brands. + The length is cut to your size and preference and then sewn in-store while you wait. While I am not a man with an unusual or rare size, I love that I can have something customized to me. It's a rare and treasured touch these days. + The service in their location was fantastic. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and worked with me to find something I would be happy with in terms of color, length, and fit. + Especially considering the quality of the product and that it's made locally, I feel as though the asking price of $79 is more than reasonable. The caveat: - The fit could have been better. When I bought Levi's at Target or Amazon, I would go for the "Athletic Fit," which is a little narrower than a standard cut but not skinny. I thought Dearborn's "Tailored Fit" would be perfect, but it didn't feel quite right or comfortable. I had to go for their "Relaxed Fit," which was comfortable but didn't quite hit the nail on the head in terms of overall fit. However, I am not an unreasonable fellow and I realize that if I wanted something that would fit perfectly, I would need to pay a lot more money and go bespoke. Having fits for every body shape is otherwise impossible. I do want to mention that Mugsy, despite being of only one style, seems to be more in line with the fit I seek. However, they don't have some of the other benefits mentioned above. Final Verdict: As I start to move on from Amazon and Target (for they shrink way too much), Dearborn Denim will enter my rolodex for places where I occasionally buy clothing. However, I cannot say it will be the only place where I buy my jeans.

However the staff including an apparent 'manager' refuse to stand behind their product and are completely unwilling to try repair or replacement.

It will be soon.

It was a rainy and kinda slick trip along LSD but I figured it would be worth it as their reviews seemed favorable. The hours posted on the website were 1-6pm. I was ten minutes early. I parked in front and waited. 1pm. The gates stay closed and locked, the shop lights remained dark. 1:10...1:15...1:30pm and no life was stirring in the shop. I look hard through the continuing downpour at the window and I see paper taped inside. I get out and DAMN! (*see picture attached*) The website made no mention of 'on-line service only'. Now I know. And now YOU know too. Not really gonna trust a shop that keeps their website up leading customers to believe they're open when they know darn well they aren't. Moving on..

They specialize in custom-wear so naturally being a dressy connosier, I took a shot for my cousin's wedding dress being custom made since I have bought numerous leather items from them in the past (but never in clothing). Abe, helped us understand the dress making process; informing us about the different designs, handwork and fabrics. 3 weeks go by and I got the call that the dress has had arrived. I must say I am very much impressed not only with the quality but that I only paid $650 dollars out the door. I wish them success in their new venture and will recommend to anyone in Chicago looking for custom dresses, bridesmaid dresses and even bridal gowns!
