    The Mu'u that was made.
    Marianette K.

    Everything went well. Her wanting to make sure my mu'u was exactly what I wanted and her patience with me. She is definitely an expert of creating from a picture. I also had a similar example to help in letting her know what look I was striving for. I needed the mu'u in 2 months, which was ample time for fittings and adjustments. OVERALL- I get lots of compliments on this custom made one-of-a-kind art piece. We were a great team. Karina knows her craft and I'll be back if I need something created again.

    Bustle

    Updating the include the picture of the bustle! Karina did an amazing job! The bustle held the entire night.

    Karina helped take in my straps on this blouse and for it to fit me properly again. Dog was not included. *wink

    Karina is prompt on replying and did my alterations within 2 days, even when I said "no rush." I appreciate that about her and the alterations with my dress, pants being taken up in length and fixing straps on my crochet blouse were all done beautifully. Thank you! Highly recommend

    Karina fixed my ripped jeans!
    Gera K.

    I love Karina's tailoring work! I've already used her several times, the first time she fixed my shorts that were ripping at the pocket, made them look like brand new again! The 2nd time she tailored a patch from my shirt onto my shirt where my bird made holes, and saved my awesome favorite shirt! I definitely recommend her she's been doing this for over 30 years and she's very good at it!

    See all

    I visited this store while on vacation to confirm my sizing before purchasing my wedding shoes. I…read moreconfirmed that I am a size 36.5 and planned to order the shoes online to be delivered to my home. My sales associate instead offered to ship the shoes directly from the store, which I agreed to. When the shoes arrived, they were clearly in unacceptable condition and appeared to be a floor model. I was offered a refund since this exact style was no longer available, but I declined, as these were the shoes I had chosen specifically for my wedding. Ultimately, the manager went above and beyond by sourcing a brand new pair from Europe and sending them to my home. While I appreciate the manager's effort and care in resolving the situation, I am deeply disappointed that anyone thought it was acceptable to sell and ship a floor model in the first place. Throughout the process, there was significant denial and a lack of accountability from the store, and other associates appeared more focused on protecting a colleague than addressing the mistake. My actual new shoes were sent with a plastic on the sole while these ones weren't, and yet the receipt on my new shoes still credited the sales associate who initially gave me the worn pair. There needs to be accountability for actions, and poor behavior shouldn't be rewarded. Although the manager helped restore some confidence, the stress, time, and emotional energy this situation caused during wedding planning was unfair and reflects poorly on the integrity and professionalism of this brand.

You do need to walk a few steps to get up to the store entrance, I forgot to check if there is a wheel chair access on the side. Inside is spacious, everything is well displace. As usual, there is a security guard at the front of the store. The sales person who help us is nice and friendly. There are a lot of chairs / room for me to sit and relax while my wife is shopping. They do have a parking structure next to the store and they will valet your parking. As for value, whatever makes you happy is worth the money right?

She was so kind and understanding, and went above and beyond by showing me different styles that flattered me and also walked me through the different fabrics she had available. She was also very transparent with her pricing and worked with my budget which I truly appreciated from the start. After my first visit to Miyuki, I also went to Casa Blanca and Bijou Bridal, but I just couldn't find a dress that felt like me. That's when I decided to go back to Miyuki, and I'm so glad I did! She took my vision and turned it into my absolute dream dress. Not to mention the silk fabric she used was STUNNING. On top of that, she was even able to design a beautiful dress for my mom (green dress pictured) with pretty short notice, which meant so much to both of us! Again, the fabric and color she used was GORGEOUS. Her amazing customer service, high attention to detail, and overall quality is truly unmatched. If you're looking for someone who truly listens and delivers beyond your expectations, Miyuki is the one!!

    5 VERY HIGH if not 6 stars!…read more Only because as a male, finding a reliable tailor who actually listens to your requests can be a never ending quest. A quest that frankly can be an expensive and anxious one by entrusting total strangers with literally cutting up your clothes. After Yelping and Googling high and low, I'm so glad to have found DJ. Nothing against those businesses that do alterations along with dry cleaning but I'm glad I've found an experienced TAILOR who truly takes pride in their work! DJ himself was a very professional tailor throughout my whole experience. Immediately from responding to my questions, appointment requests, all the way to the very end leaving me with professionally fitted clothes! During fitting, DJ was very professional by taking his time with measurements, throwing in bits of recommendations while still encouraging your requests. Unlike past experiences I've had with alteration shops where they have you raise an arm and leg or two then send you out the door faster than you came in (how comforting yes?). I had a few high end aloha shirts and pants tailored. I initially intended on just having 1 shirt done then going from there but DJ's attention to detail gave me the peace of mind that I could entrust everything with him. So happy to say, I've found a personal tailor I can go to for all my fitting needs!

I was trying to find someone close to me and saw this place was literally a mile away, he took me in the same day I called and hemmed all three of my pants for me, he actually had it done a day early and said I could come pick them up. DJ is very professional and kind and he holds a lot of knowledge when he speaks about sewing and clothing, the hems on my pants were done so well and professionally I am very happy with my experience and the prices are extremely reasonable. Please go this business if you need any type of alterations done.
