If I could post zero stars I would. I went to him to see if he could alter my wedding dress. His place of business is his home. Thats not really the issue though. He stepped on my dress twice and didnt apologize. He also suggested I lose 10 lbs....full stop. I had already told him I was in the process of losing weight for the wedding however to tell someone how much to lose is beyond inappropriate. In addition as I was walking out he was insistent on telling me that he only takes cash for alterations. Now it would be one thing if I walked in there slovenly, but I came to a place of business expecting that individual to be a professional. However, the entire time he gave off the air that he was doing me a favor and not exchanging money for a service. He kept suggesting easier ways to alter my dress instead of truly fixing it so that he could save time. I would not go to him for an alteration ever. Thank God I found someone better.

Kiko is absolutely amazing! I worked with him to get my wedding dress done and he made a beautiful design that was perfect for my wedding. He was also very patient and never minded explaining things when I had questions, as well as worked within my budget. If youre thinking of getting a dress made definitely have him do it!

Another wedding, another AMAZING mother of the bride dress!Kiko made me a stunning mother of the bride dress last year for the wedding of one of my twin daughters. My second daughter got married this year resulting in a second beautiful creation by Kiko.It is always a true pleasure to work with Kiko. He is a very talented “couturier,” he knows what he is doing, listens to you and comes up with ideas that result in a very unique and gorgeous creation. As he did last year, Kiko gave me advice on make-up, jewelry and even shoes! He is also very flexible for appointments and scheduling, not to mention that he always delivers on time!We went through the same process we did last year: I came up with ideas and Kiko sketched my dress. This time I was looking for a dress in a light weight and delicate fabric that would allow me to move and dance comfortably. We picked a beautiful, printed silk chiffon in a very light and soft blue and green color. He made a multi-layer asymmetrical bias cut skirt that he layered over a short silk charmeuse skirt. The layers had a French hem finishing and as I walked or danced the skirt floated softly in the air creating a very graceful movement, exactly what I had envisioned. Only Kiko could come up with such a gorgeous creation!I highly recommend Kiko for fine, unique and beautiful formal wear in Seattle. Thanks again Kiko for making another stunning mother of the bride dress!

Kiko is extremely skilled at his craft. I had crazy ideas for my dress, and we talked through it and I ended up with my ideal wedding dress, using lace from my mothers veil. I danced all night in it too. The process was easy and fun, and Kiko was a delight to work with. It was great too because he would come to my house for fittings! And the final fitting, the dress reveal I had all my bridesmaids over and we had champagne and everything. Awesome afternoon!I would hire him any day to make me a dress! Thank you Kiko!

As I started out looking for my wedding dress, I couldnt stand how every dress in every bridal shop looked exactly the same. I didnt want to be spending thousands of dollars on something that was just OK and would be at the next wedding I went to. So I was online and saw the great reviews for Kiko and said, yes, this is perfect! Of all the things I decided on for my wedding, the one choice that was hands down the best was getting my dress made by him. It was absolutely stunning, so unique, and I got comments from literally everyone.Kiko took my ideas from magazines and my likes/dislikes and sketched something which took my vision and made it more than I could have imagined. He pushed me to use a beaded lace which I was hesitant on and that part of the dress pulled everything together (not to mention added a great wow factor). He is able to make any dress in any budget and at a quality of dressmaking that is top notch.He was flexible with my schedule for appointments and was available by email/phone/in person when needed. When I asked last minute to do a bussel on my a-symmetrical train, he added it without any issue, even though it was a last minute request. He helped with earring ideas, hair/makeup etc so my look could really come together.Overall, I would encourage anyone who wants an absolutely beautiful and unique dress in the same budget you were thinking of for a bridal store gown to go to Kiko and get something miles above your expectations. Dont be hesitant to go talk to him, you will be glad you did! You will shine on your day and you will get something so special for you to remember forever.

Kiko made my wedding dress dreams come true!! I too, looked at Yelp when I began my search for the best wedding designer and/or boutique in the Seattle area. I checked out several of the boutiques but all the dresses seemed so bridal - typical and nothing special. Based on Kikos perfect reviews, I had a meeting with him. I described my vision and he instantly brought it to life in a stunning sketch. At that point, my fiancé and I had a good feeling about moving forward with Kiko and the process began. I was not an easy customer - meticulous and perfectionistic to say the least. Kiko was fantastic - always attentive and receptive to my feedback, working tirelessly to create my dream dress. Over a period of several months, he brought the dress to life in the most spectacular way and much better than I ever could have imagined. On my wedding day, I felt confident and beautiful in the dress - just as you should as a bride!! I live in Pullman (about 5 hours from Seattle) and Kiko was always super accommodating with scheduling fittings. I could only come to town on the weekends and he always made himself available. Due to my work schedule, I often had to request that fitting days or times be changed and he was accommodating always without any complaint. I would recommend anyone to seek Kiko for their dress making. If I was going through this process again, I would go right back to Kiko without a doubt!! He was professional, masterful in his art, and a pleasure to work with. Thank you, Kiko!!
