Evelyn's work for my wedding in Sept was terrible. Hiring her was such a mistake. The whole experience was horrible and extremely frustrating! Her work and customer service were completely lacking and no where near worth the $2,000+ spent. She assured me, when I initially came in and placed my order, there was more than enough time to make the 11 adult and 3 child outfits for my bridal party. I was skeptical, but she ASSURED ME she would have them done and they would be of quality. Evelyn lied to get paid!
She rushed to finish the order and she fell far short of what she promised to deliver. Evelyn provides work that is at best 50% accurate and claims it is 80-90%. Pockets were uneven, seams noticeably uncentered, buttons popped off when you simply try to button them, no one's outfit fit appropriately despite the fact she was provided measurements and did personal fittings. Overall, her work was ridiculously shabby and her level of unprofessionalism was so extreme that anyone paying for service would consider it blatant disrespect and cancel their order. So soooo many times I wish I could have canceled and found someone else.
Rather than hiring help to complete the project (which she said she had), she greedily kept all the money we paid and tried to do the entire order alone. Consequently, we were made to suffer for her inability to meet deadlines she set or conduct fittings and appointments in a timely manner. I was so disappointed and felt so regretful with my choice to hire Evelyn being that my bridal party spent their own money for their garments (which Evelyn at one point said, "That's not a lot of money," to imply we should be accepting of her faulty work and lack of professionalism considering what we are spending. When is it EVER acceptable for a business to presume to know what "a lot" of money is for its customers?) Finally, the day before my wedding, she had the audacity to demand $300 more than agreed to in our signed contract with no ryhme, reason, or basis.
Evelyn misrepresented her abilities, gave an unrealistic time frame for completion, never stuck to her word, and will blame the client for her failures as a seamstress/professional until she is blue in the face. I have never been so mishandled and disrespected as a customer or client in my life.

   Read moreIâve been going here since I was in middle school after a second degree burn on half of my upper body (face included) I was so insecure about the scar tissue that healed and how dark it was compared to the rest of my body and after meeting Evelyn she sold me the shea butter + African black soap combo that she makes herself from imported 100% authentic raw ingredients. Needless to say my complexion evened out within a month of use and the scar tissue was undetectable after about 2 months of use, my only regret is that I didnât use it on my neck, back, shoulder, and arm sooner because the scars wouldâve been gone by now. I just bought the combo from her again because after being in the army and traveling for three years Iâve bought black soap and shea butter from so many people and they DO NOT work because despite what they say their ingredients are not real. If I knew she delivered I wouldâve gotten more from her sooner! I canât wait for my face to be African black soap smooth and sheâs butter glowing again! Thank you for your constant kindness and...
   Read moreMy experience at EVELYN'S CREATION to include the ART EXPO at the WEST OAKS MALL has been and is without a doubt a wonderful experience. Included is a plethora of art,culture and fashion for ALL to experience and enjoy. I was specifically impressed with the inviting store atmosphere filled college and university items to include upon request uniquely designed and tailored items. The variety of KEMETIC/AFRICAN clothing was previously cut and made available for tailoring on the scene a subsequent appointment for a final fitting. I was also impressed with the variety of packaging options of the skincare products and the display of both the African black soap and African shea butter from West Africa to include a sampling area for both black soap and shea butter. Ultimately it is definitely a "ONE STOP"shopping oasis. DERRICK-AKA-V.I.P. 5...
