Cozy vibes on point. They can come and decorate my house any day.

THIS. This place is everything. Let me start off by saying that after many, MANY unsuccessful attempts at other tux rental places, I was dumbfounded. How are there tons of bridal boutiques, but not even a handful of tux rental places?! Isn't the groom as important as the bride?! My husband stumbled upon this place, and when we walked in I was first astounded by the beauty of the place, and then realized how personal the workers were. LOVED it from here on out. My husband wanted navy/blue suits- they had a range of blue hues. WHO KNEW THERE WERE SO MANY BLUES?! My husband wanted slim cut pants- easy as pie. My husband wanted different cuff links for him than his guys- done without a problem. Everything was so effortless and easy here. Icing on the cake was when I saw my favorite blogger also use them for her wedding. I was sold. I may be biased, but my husband and the groomsmen looked GREAT on our wedding day. Anything that needed tailoring was comped to a certain price point, and delivery (as well as any needed exchanges) were all very timely. I would use them again without a speck of doubt in my mind.

We had our wedding and everything went great. The groomsmen all looked SO GOOD and outfits were definitely on fleek that day. While my husband got fitted at an actual store, all the other boys just entered measurements online. Everyone's suits fits very nicely and receiving and returning very easy. I would definitely recommend the black tux!!!

2nd replacement and not only was it missing that bottom button, it looked like someone had slept in it?

Received the first tux which was a little small so we reordered the next size. The first replacement looked wrinkled and not quite clean and was missing the buckle on the side of the pants. So we called the company to send a replacement same size. The replacement comes in also looking like it had never been cleaned or pressed. The jacket was also missing the bottom button. It is amazing this company can operate like this. At this point it's too late and we have no other options so we have to spend time pressing and trying to make it look decent for the wedding. If you're looking to rent a tux, look elsewhere

Great service and options. Quick to respond to emails. Perfect if groomsmen are spread out around different places.

I've been on the hunt for the perfect dress for my daughter's bat mitzvah and it has not been easy…read more After buying out all the dresses from all the local department stores with no luck I decided to check out Janet Mandell's showroom. I was interested in dresses, but also wanted to check out the jewelry, shoes and purses for a maybe dress at home. I made an appointment online (super easy) and paid the $50 fee. I brought along a friend for lunch and shopping since everything is more fun with friends. We showed up a few minutes early for our 2pm appointment and was greeted by the lovely Monika who immediately began pulling dress options for us that fit within the theme/look I was going for. There are so many amazing dresses to choose from, but there's basically only one size of each dress...but I ended up with about 6-10 options. There were a few that looked like ice skating costumes, others that just looked horrible on me and a few good ones as well. I ended up really liking this beautiful white zac pozen dress, but it looked kind of plain on even with the most fabulous pair of borrowed Jimmy Choo sparkly shoes. However, then Monika took us into the jewel/purse room and turned the plain white dress into an amazing option. She was so great at styling the dress that I joked (half serious) that she needed to come home with me to style me daily! The white dress + accessories was an amazing option, but I ultimately decided to stick with my maybe option at home...unless something else really amazing comes along in the next month. I probably need to make yet another appointment at Janet Mandells for accessories and have a feeling I'll be a frequent customer for other events as well. I was a big Rent the Runway fan pre pandemic, but this takes renting dresses and accessories to an entirely new level. And it's hard to swallow the cost of some of these dresses and accessories that I know i'll wear once when I can rent something amazing at a fraction of the cost.

This was on Superior street the last four years and now their in the 900 Shops Mall. The F.D.O…read more (first day opening) was in late Dec. This is luxury & couture designer clothing rental. This is by appointment only.

Daniel is simply the best in the business. From start to finish, he made sure I looked and felt my absolute best. The entire experience was first class. His professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for his clients are unmatched. He truly takes the time to understand exactly what you're looking for while also offering expert recommendations that elevate the final product beyond what you imagined. What separates Daniel is his eye for style and fit. He knows how to create a look that feels timeless, sharp, and completely personalized. The process felt like a true VIP experience from beginning to end. There honestly is nothing else like it. All three locations, Lake Forest, Chicago, and San Francisco are incredible and reflect the same level of quality and service. If you're thinking about getting into custom clothing, do not waste your time or money going anywhere else. You will not regret it for a second. In addition to my suit, I also had custom shoes, two custom shirts, suspenders, and other accessories made. Every single piece came out perfect. I couldn't be happier with the experience or the final result. Daniel absolutely crushed it. Excited to brainstorm the next suit!

The best quality suits I have ever worn with a fantastic selection of personalized options. Having worked with Daniel out of his San Fransisco location in California I was always wanting to visit his original space in Chicago. I finally had the opportunity and am so glad I was able to see where it all began. Daniel helped me lock in new styles I had never considered including a pinstripe and burgundy suit. They are my absolute favorite pieces of clothing and I get compliments whenever I wear them. The fit is perfect and I know I am looking my best whenever I go out or give presentations. Having shopped around with other tailors I can say Daniel's quantity to price is without match. I have been to 4 tailors over the years and did not know what good quality was, what makes material "good quality" nor what questions to ask. Daniel explained what makes a good suit, fit, look, style and now I know when I am getting the best quality to suit the situation. Daniel George suits are superior to any other tailor's work I have seen thus far. Previously I was told I was getting the "best" or the "latest style" however when I compare other suits made by other tailors to my Daniel George suits, I only end up wearing the clothes I have had made at DG. Would highly recommend coming to this location and going bespoke. You will not regret it.

We had the best experience!…read more We're getting married in April and had no idea where to start. My fiancé started an account online but we decided to book an in person appointment to figure things out. We met with DyAnna and she was great and so helpful and sweet! She walked us through the steps, showed us a few different suit color options, gave us guidance and recommendation and was so helpful. Generation Tux also offers 1 free suit rental if there are over 5 rentals in your party, I think that is great. They also offer up to 2 free try on at home kits. The place itself is gorgeous too! Important to note it doesn't carry sizes as everything is online for try on. This is more informational and to see colors and the items in person. Which was helpful for us because a few colors looked slightly different in person. Has suit jackets, vests, ties, bow ties, cufflinks, shoes, socks, and swatches. They also have a cute little area for drinks and coffee.

Saw an article about this place on Gizmodo.com several years ago. Another one popped up recently…read moreand I thought I'd take a look.... WOW!! You can do any, or all of your purchase on-line, or go to any of their showrooms. Pick your fabric, color, style and then go to town!! You get to customize everything!! Liner, pocket, boutonniere hole, monogram, lapel, buttons, stitching, collar and more... THEN they measure you....Not just standard measurements, but 30 minutes of measurements!! From your neck all the way down to your feet, they measure it all. Now your info is transmitted to their tailors (In China) and a new custom-made suit (or shirts, pants, etc) arrive at you door in under 2 weeks AND THE SUIT FITS LIKE A GLOVE!!! (Note - I have a 20" neck and a decent potbelly - NO ONE has a suit that fits me well...and this fit PERFECTLY!!) If it doesn't fit quite right, bring it in and they'll fix it, or even pay someone else to fix it if you can't get to the showroom. It doesn't get much better than this!! Make sure you look for coupons for up to 15% off... TRY THIS PLACE IF YOU NEED A SUIT!!

We didn't end up getting anything here because the overall vibes just were not good. The staff didn't seem very welcoming and there wasn't much guidance throughout the process. We were mostly told to look through the fabrics and options ourselves without much explanation or recommendations. I'm not really sure what the point of making an appointment was if there wasn't going to be a more personalized experience. The main thing they walked us through was the timeline for when the jacket would be completed. Overall, the experience just felt cold and uninviting, especially for something that's supposed to feel special and custom.
