I had to find the Yelp page for this amazing business in Oakland's Chinatown, Sasha's House. I didn't realize they also sell traditional Chinese clothing for all sizes (including kiddos), because we've only frequented their outdoor tabling. I recently attended my first mahjong experience and purchased the coolest pair of mahjong tile earrings here. I also purchased a mini capybara with headphones, which is taken to most restaurants now as the stuffie of choice. The staff is so kind here and I can't wait to come back to the Pacific Renaissance Plaza soon. There is a special parking garage located conveniently underneath the plaza, pay before exiting/using the elevator. If you're in need of anything for Lunar New Year, I feel like this is most definitely a can't miss spot with great value. read more

We found the perfect outfits for our Chinese wedding banquet. The owner was super nice, welcoming, and not pushy at all. We tried a few shops in San Francisco's Chinatown. And decided to drive to Oakland for Sasha. The owner was helpful and patient, taking out many different styles for us to try and giving great advice. Tailoring was quick and easy. Highly recommend this place if you need a Chinese banquet outfit. Definitely the best experience we had. Well worth the cost. read more

Local spot for your Chinese dress (qipao/cheurgsam). The owner helped me find a number of dresses to try on in her small but super functional changing room. Dresses range from about 90 to 300 with the higher end ones being made by hand and or imported from Hong Kong. Super friendly and a great deal to purchase and then alter to your needs. Support local and avoid all the back and forth of trying awkwardly fit online purchased dresses! read more

Come through to Sasha's for all your qipao needs. Either you need one, your mom needs one, your grandma needs one, or the men in your life needs one - Sasha's caters to all ages (even kids!). I've been passively looking for a qipao for my wedding and I'm one to shop online for convenience, but after trying a couple ones from online... let's just say there's a reason why Sasha's exist. The owner was friendly and extremely helpful. She gave helpful comments here and there and was pleasant to converse with the entire time. I really enjoyed my experience shopping here. The selection here was pretty amazing and the prices were reasonable compared to dealing with the hassle of ordering online, playing around with sizing, getting alterations, etc. There's parking on the street and a parking garage underneath where the shop is located (along with other shops in the plaza). I ended up finding a qipao for my wedding and my mom found one for herself + a jacket for Chinese new years so this shopping trip was a win. read more

I found my qipao for my Tea Ceremony at Sasha's! The staff were friendly and patient with my sister and I as we tried on a large selection of their qipaos, which were all reasonably priced. I bought my qipao a year in advance and lost a bit of weight by my Tea Ceremony, but they were able to do a quick alteration and it fit like a glove. I wanted to lift the Phoenix design so it'd sit higher on my bust, but it was too complicated of an alteration and they warned the neckline might not sit as straight if they took everything apart. I appreciated their transparency, and the finished product still turned out great! Thanks for helping me feel like a princess on my special day! read more

Came back recently to get a wedding shirt for my husband since I was wearing the qipao I bought from here as one of my wedding dresses. There is only a limited selection, but they had exactly what my husband wanted. The owner is great as she helped us get it tailored too! She is very helpful and patient. Highly recommend! read more

I came in the week of Lunar New Year in hopes of finding a traditional dress to wear and feel closer to my Chinese culture. I don't typically celebrate in its entirety, and I haven't owned a Qipao since I was a child, so I was pretty nervous. The owner was super sweet and asked me what style I liked, and showed me the options. She had a few on sale, but I chose a higher quality dress that fit me better than the others. I did not feel judged, and felt taken care of. Please support this family owned business for any traditional wear needs ! read more

I came back a couple times to get measured for her to send the dress off to her alterations contact and pick the dress back up when completed and perfectly altered. She has fantastic memory and remembered me and my mom from months ago, and she was just as candid, patient, and funny as we chatted in Cantonese. She seems to have even more selection than before and spoke to us more about the whole qipao creation process, from deciding fabric to design, even considering how the dresses will look in photos and what occasions they'll be best suited for. With decades of experience, she has a lot of insight into what might look good on different skin tones and body types. has a seamstress friend, she'll pin and give it to her to fix. Again, I highly highly recommend Sasha's House for all your qipao needs! read more

Very good selection of qipao. There were traditional qi pao, on the lower budget, and then higher end qipao for nicer occasions. They also had the traditional two piece wedding outfit. Many different colors. Modern designs. I tried on a halter qipao and I saw a few qipao with lace and fishtail design. I ended up purchasing a really nice bridal one priced at $300 which ended up being discounted. It was red lace with fish tail bottom. I tried on about 5 dresses. The owner was very patient. My mom then tried on about 5 dresses. Very fun occasion and I greatly enjoyed being in the store. We each bought a dresss. Happy to support a local business. I shopped online for qipao but honestly the pricing at Sasha's was comparable if not better. Very happy I got to try on the qipao in person because the fit is so important. read more

They are very accommodating, they don't make you feel rushed at all and they also have a variety of sizes.

I came to Sasha's House looking for a red qipao for my wedding after reading positive reviews on Yelp and Reddit. There was a large selection of designs to choose from that came in a variety of sizes. The owner was very patient in explaining the difference in materials and was helpful in finding me a dress that was the most flattering on me. Overall a great experience! read more

Got a nice qipao for my Chinese tea ceremony. Sasha's house a wide variety of designs that fit within any budget (from $50 - more than $300). She kept me and my mother company throughout the whole thing and I never felt rushed to buy at all. Highly recommend read more

Great place to find a quipao! I came to find something not too expensive for my Chinese tea ceremony, since I'll be in it an hour max and I went over budget with my white bridal gown. I had been looking at Etsy and few other websites, and they'd either be outrageously expensive, or I was worried about fit (particularly when a lot were not refundable). I googled and found Sasha's house. The shopkeeper (who I assume is Sasha) was super sweet and patient. I tried on three different quipaos and was really indecisive. I am a size XS/0 and for her dresses, was a size small. They all fit good, with plenty of room to move. It was great to be able to try on a variety of them and move around and kneel, to get a feel of it. What's great is even though I'm insanely short, with heels, all these dresses would work. The prices for her quipaos range from $45 to $78 to $288--it all depends on the fabric and if it's got a lot of gold (vs "yellow) or if it's lined, etc. Prices are on the tags too, so you know she's not coming up with a random number based on clientele. I ended up choosing a beautiful dragon one, mid-range in price, that I don't need altered. My fiancé went with a blue suit jacket with gold dragons and gold cuff sleeves. We were hoping for black and gold, but she didn't carry it. We could've found one online, but the shopkeeper was so nice and spent so much time with us, we wanted to support her and purchase locally. We went with blue and it works with some of the blue on the dragons on my dress. Please patronize this place if you're looking for any Chinese outfits--whether simple or luxe, she really has such a great range. And much better prices than SF Chinatown where the $45 quipaos at Sasha's are $110+ there. read more

Sasha the owner was so patience with us, My daughter must have tried 10+ cheongsams. Sasha removed over 5 dresses from the mannequins. She worked hard to make a sale!! I thought Sasha was going to give up but she kept pulling out more dresses for my daughter. It was a lot of fun. We didn't feel pressured to buy. After a few hours with Sasha, my daughter found the perfect cheongsam. Not too glittery and overpowering designs. Also her shop was located in a safe location. It is on top of Chinatown's underground parking lot. Park downstairs and take the elevator to the ground floor. After buying the dress, we went to Peony's for dim sum. Thank you, Sasha! We will be back when my daughter loses 10 pounds for her September wedding!! Lol she will need a tailor!! Save yourself a trip to SF and shop locally! read more

I had a good experience looking for a Chinese dress for an upcoming wedding (not my wedding). They even have a small selection of men's clothing. There is a small fitting room. The person helping us was friendly and helpful read more

Super friendly and kind store owner! Very down to earth and understood that I only needed the qipao for a tea ceremony. So she gave me less expensive options that I could choose from. read more

I needed a qipao for my wedding reception but didn't want a typical traditional one. I had originally bought one online and came to Sasha's House with my mom to just help her find a qipao to wear. While my mom was trying on her outfits, I saw this red lace dress and decided to try it on just for fun. I immediately fell in love with it! Even though I already had a wedding dress, I decided to get this one and wear it instead. I'm so glad I came here and found it! My mom also got a nice qipao as well. The owner was very nice and helped us find dresses to try on. She let us try on as many as we wanted, and her prices seemed pretty reasonable. (I actually ended up buying another qipao also as a potential party dress!) I would definitely recommend checking out this store if you are looking for a Chinese style dress! read more

I bought a kids outfit here. I didn't look at outfits for adults, so my opinion is very limited. I found a few nice outfits, thick for the winter weather, and that my kid liked which is very important. Some threads alone the zipper line were coming off. The staff told me that I could cut it off myself. This is the first time I bought from them and the price seemed reasonable. My kid chose her outfit and was very happy with it, and that's all it matters. read more

Although I hung out in the renaissance plaza a lot as a teenager, I never paid attention to this apparel shop. Fast forward to now - I am looking for a red cheongsam for my wedding, and my friend recommended me to check it out. It is a HIDDEN GEM in Chinatown! They have a great selection of Cheongsam of many styles and sizes at very a reasonable price. The boss lady pulled out like 10 dresses for me to try on and patiently waited for me. She cares about what fits me the best, even mindful of my budget. I ended up picking this one (pictured) that's on the cheaper end ($35) and paid a small fee for alteration ($10). She gave me a discount cuz it's the last one. In general the price ranges from $30 something to the hundreds. After trying on many, I settled with this one which the fabric is soft and I feel comfortable in. She has an in house seamstress who specializes in cheongsam alteration - sometimes it's free and sometimes you pay a small fee depending on the dress. I'd recommend going in person here instead of purchasing one online somewhere because you can feel the dress and can adjust it to your fit. The nicer cheongsams are in the hundreds online but here you can find one thats way cheaper and fits way better! read more

Super friendly store owner, she let me try on so many different items before I found the perfect 2 dresses for some upcoming events. Strongly recommend!! read more

They have a huge selection of qipaos, from longer dresses to tops. The store owners are very nice too.

I had a gala to attend and decided on buying a chinese dress. Regina was very helpful in allowing me to try on at least 8 dresses before deciding on a short dress vs long. She has many colors and styles for most budgets. I even picked up a nice silk jacket I will come back for my next event and possibly buy a long dress for my wardrobe. read more

I had really great customer service here. After looking at various stores in SF, Oakland, Fremont, and online, I came here to continue my search for a dress. Most other shops I went to only sold in 1 size or you had to go the other route which is custom made. At Sasha's House, I felt like they had every size and variation! I said "I like this pattern.. but I wish it had no sleeves and that it was longer" and they were able to look in their inventory and I found the perfect dress with the perfect price! read more

Absolutely lovely store with a huge selection, and a very kind owner. I bought a beautiful red qipao for my wedding reception. The owner was really patient and showed me the differences between two qipao that I was deciding between. I'll be going back closer to my wedding date to get the qipao altered. The store is in a convenient location inside a shopping mall. I'd definitely recommend this store to anyone looking for Chinese traditional clothing. read more

I had an all black attire event this past weekend for New Year's eve, and decided I wanted to wear a Chinese dress. The lady was really nice and very helpful. I found a couple of dresses, but the accents on the dress stood out to much on the dresses so I couldn't wear them. Just as I started to give up, she felt bad for me so she started digging through a few older boxes on the shelves and we finally found the perfect dress for me. Great customer service. read more

The ladies here were so kind and helpful. I tried on several dresses, and they worked really hard to help me find the perfect one for my wedding. The one I ultimately fell in love with fell short of fitting just right, and it was the last one--so they worked with me to have it taken out a bit. They had it ready in just a few days! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for qipao. read more

The service is exceptional at Sasha House. Found the perfect dress for my Tea Ceremony. My fiancé's mom also got her dress here as well. The staff is incredibly nice and attentive. They even offer alterations to ensure the dress fits you perfectly. If you need a cheongsam for any occasion, Sasha House has the some of the best selections. Highly recommend!! read more

Great service with mother and daughter. High quality clothes. Nicer and better items than the shop across the way
