Ericka is highly professional and is willing to get as detailed as needed to meet your needs!

As a larger gentleman (6'5" 230lbs) I've always had a hard time finding professional clothing that drapes professionally and frames the body right. I was nervous at first in exploring a new clothier as I was afraid they would try to upsell me super expensive fabrics and other items that I was not interested in.

Fortunately, Ericka quelled those concerns. Rather she surpassed expectations and spent the necessary time to ensure we got the fit and style correct before moving to product recommendations.

Relative to shirt styling, I knew I wanted larger collars to better frame my face (compared to the rather short off-the-rack collar length options). Her initial recommendation for collar length and spread combination was spot on perfect.

Additionally, she professionally challenged me on shirt cuff barrel size/circumference. I was thinking a smaller cuff would look more modern, whereas in her professional (and correct) opinion a larger cuff would permit one's watch to neatly slide inside when the arms are lengthened. I am happy that she brough her expertise to this detail.

We've used this structure (as well as the rest of the fit) for multiple shirts since our initial consult and I will continue to repeat purchase...

My friends and family were surprised when I decided to do the color and shape analysis because I am notorious for hating to shop for clothes. I went into our time together hoping that working with Ericka would make the shopping experience easier and quicker for me, and I most definitely got what I was looking for! Our appointment helped take a lot of the guess work out of shopping for me by narrowing down what colors and styles were the most flattering for my shape and coloring. What I appreciated was that Ericka also considered my preferences and was able to help me find what I would both like and what would look good. When I go shopping now, I can go right to the clothes that I know are the most complimentary and skip over the ones that don't do me any favors. I am more confident in the looks that I'm buying and wearing, and while I may never love shopping Erica certainly helped me dread it...

I have had the privilege of utilizing Ericka's services for many years now and can say without hesitation she is one of the best stylist's I have ever worked with. In recent years I have mainly seen Ericka to get my hair back on track when I've tried something new that wasn't really working for me...Thankfully I knew who to turn to. She is incredibly detail oriented and her ability to color match with my skin tone, especially as I have changed with age, has had me looking my best every time I leave her studio. If you are looking for color correction or to get personal guidance on how to update your style with all that Ericka now offers, go see her... You'll wish you had...
