Someone texted me and we just communicate via texting. There is a fee per hour to try on dresses. I confirmed my appointment again via text a few days before. There is parking behind the business but I didn't know and I parked on the street. There is no business name on the suite. Just go to suite 103. The door was locked so I called and someone opened the door for me. I brought my mom and sister to this appointment. Kandee helped me out and I told her it's my first time trying on bridal dresses. She recommended that I try on several styles so I know what I like and didn't like. She is very nice and patient with me. They offer rental if you are not looking to buy a dress. They also do custom gown if that's what you want. I like that Kandee didn't pressure me to buy a dress. In fact, she encourages me to try on more dresses at other places too. I appreciate that I wasn't pressured into buying a dress that day. I feel very comfortable. I'm going to browse a bit more and I'd definitely consider them once I know what I'm looking for. Overall a great experience especially if this is your first time.

Also, the quality of the dresses look better than another wedding dress rental place I've gone to. Annie can provide suggestions for dresses based on your liking and also will inform you if the dress looks best for photos indoors or outdoors. The location entrance is a little hard to find but when I called annie, she provided guidance. Overall, it's been a great experience.

Many of the other tailors I visited worked out of small or makeshift home studios, but Connie's space was open and airy, with a large mirror and a platform that truly makes you feel like a princess when you step up to see how the dress is coming together on your body. Connie herself was just as impressive--kind, professional, and very mindful of my budget. Appointments can feel brief, but she is fair, efficient, and clearly skilled at what she does. Overall, I was extremely happy with how my dress turned out and would absolutely recommend Connie to other brides in the future.

This review is so long overdue I bought my wedding dress…read morehere 3 years ago I went to at least 5 different wedding dress stores before I landed here Irene is so friendly, sweet, and patient. I really appreciated her helping me choose my perfect wedding dress. After trying on soooo many different dresses, I finally fell in love with a gorgeous dress found at Love Boat Bridal. The dresses here are also very affordable compared to some of the other places I visited, and included alterations. In the end, I was very happy with my service here and I highly recommended Irene and Love Boat Bridal

I was able to choose my dresses instead of having the stylist bring my dresses to me. We were able to try on 6 dresses during the initial appointment.

She had us pulling dresses instead of her doing it. Every other place, I sat and relaxed while they pulled dresses. When the styles that I picked weren't working for me, and I voiced my concern she became difficult. My family tried to talk to her and she shut them down, saying me and her were having private discussions. Finally, when we complained to the owner, Zoe made a passive aggressive comment in front of all of us. And the owner offered nothing, all she said was that I could pay $300 for a special appointment with her. Def would not recommend!

Thank you to Helen for turning around a beautiful cheongsam for my wedding. I admit I came to Helen…read morea bit late in the game so there was a tight deadline getting my dress and the fitting but Helen made it happen. You call Helen to make an appointment. Then there you can browse her selection of designs, which she designs herself. If you give her enough time you can pick the fabric. Otherwise you'll have to settle for the fabrics that are more readily available. She'll take your measurements and then you set an appointment to try on your gown. Make sure to bring the shoes you plan to wear on your special occasion so she gets the length right. Then on your second trip, make sure you have your receipt number handy. Maybe take a picture of it as soon as she gives it to you on your first visit. Then she may make additional adjustments or not. Helen also has a lot of dresses available for rental as well. This is a very homey, small business shop so the fitting room is basically a big closet in the back. She is really nice, kinda reminds me of many friends' moms. She speaks limited English so if you have a particular vision and don't speak Mandarin, I'd bring a friend to help translate. My dress came out so well fitting and I got a lot of compliments on it. Hope to find another occasion to wear it again (and hope I can still fit it lol). It was around $300, not too bad! There is street parking in front and residential parking around.

Miss Helen works MAGIC when it comes to QiPao designs. I was looking around for a QiPao to wear to…read moremy graduation and stumbled upon Brocade Apparel after multiple failed attempts of finding a well fitting, generic QiPao in Chinatown. I am very glad that I decided to come to Brocade to see Helen. I did not have an appointment, but Helen took me in graciously. Which she did not have to since she does state on her website that appointment are REQUIRED. I clearly did not read it carefully enough at the time. I told her where some of my insecurities were and she explained that QiPaos look best on people who have some extra meat and fluff to them and she was able to point on what type of designs would help accentuate my natural curves. She rushed my order a bit as I did not know that QiPaos that are custom takes a minimum of 3-4 months to make. I had the basic QiPao design and Helen added the sleeves for me although there is normally an extra charge to add sleeves to QiPaos. Please DO NOT throw away your receipt since you have to text that to her the day before the fitting so she can track your dress. I had a initial fitting in mid November and I received my dress about 3 weeks after since I had gained some weight and the dress needed to be altered to go up a size. In the end it all worked out and I had my beautiful, pure silk QiPao just in time for my photoshoot. Everyone who saw me in the QiPao could not stop complimenting me on the day of my photoshoot and the day of my graduation. I had never felt more confident in clothing than putting on the QiPao. I am so grateful for this experience with Helen in designing a custom QiPao. Also, expect that basic QiPaos are a minimum of $500 and up. If you want embroidery, I was told that it will be a minimum of about $1,000+. Prices are due to change based on the economy of course. Helen also informed me that she can design other clothing besides QiPaos and I had even noticed some wedding dresses in her changing room. I will definitely go back to Helen when I get married to design another dress. She also informed me her busy season tends to be from Jan/Feb until end of August as that is when Lunar New Year and Wedding Season is, so expect a longer turn-around time during that period.
