YvonneEx African Closet- Bowie — Local services in Bowie

BUYER BEWARE!!! I had no idea that YvonneEX African Closet would become my favorite clothing store, especially at a time when I was supposed to be taking a break from shopping. I check in weekly to see what new items have come in. Yvonne's clothing is so unique, and beautiful. She is such a talented and creative designer. Her clothing is high fashion and on trend.

Baabaa is such an AMAZING stylist. She can look at me (my body, how I carry myself, my personality) and suggest pieces/outfits that I probably wouldn’t have considered otherwise. Everytime I go, she finds the perfect outfits and jewelry that makes me feel so confident, bold, classy, and beautiful. Now, I just need to find somewhere to wear them.

Agbesi, is a highly skilled and experienced tailor. Can you believe that they provide free alterations when you purchase their clothing? He has made my clothes look custom fit at no additional charge.

They make you feel so welcome and like you are part of the family. They are a family run business. I have sent my family and friends there, and they have all had the same experience.

This is the first store that I have gone to that not only offers one of a kind, hand made clothing but also a talented stylist, and a highly skilled tailor at no additional charge. Yvonne is not only a creative genius when it comes to fashion, but so many other boutiques can learn from her business model.

This is not a paid review. I rarely write reviews, but I must give credit where it's due. I love, love, love, YvonneEX African Closet and I believe...

I would like to say this was an amazing experience in this store, but unfortunately this was not a pleasant experience today. Ms. Elizabeth was extremely unprofessional and down right nasty, if I’m honest. I waited patiently and quietly for Ms. Elia to service two people in front of me and still proceeded to purchase my item.

My item was marked incorrectly, and I brought it to her attention. She immediately became combative with me and began to raise her voice. I stated it was “14.99” I showed her the tag and she immediately removed the tag and told me it was a mistake. I would have still purchased it but she continued to yell at me. If you continue to shop here, please do so with the understanding that you may have to lower your expectations of the staff and verify price. I want to be clear I still wanted the item but she continued...

Had to go to a Nigerian engagement party and found the perfect outfit. They have men, women, children and even cute stuff for teens. I love the scented shea butters and variety of black soap. My favorite is Mines in the orange container with turmeric. They also have original black soap from Ghana. Speaking of Ghana everything is made in Mama Africa. This is the ultimate Recycling Black Dollars. A black business that manufacturers clothes in Africa....
