Luly Yang

I had an awesome wedding dress appointment. It was my first time trying on dresses and Nini did a wonderful job making me feel comfortable. She was patient and sweet while also doing a great job of listening to what I said and narrowing it down to what I am looking for in a dress — I definitely wasn’t sure when I walked in. I highly recommend getting an appointment with Nini! She doesn’t pressure you, she genuinely wants you to find THE dress.
The reserved room is beautiful and it was perfect — my mom, grandma, and cousin had comfy and cute chairs to sit on.
The only bummer was that halfway through my hour and a half appointment, another consultant poked her head in to ask if some people could come in look around. There was a lot of «umm. Well…» where I was clearly uncomfortable but I said yes because I didn’t want to be the one to say no. She made it clear that I could say no but honestly I don’t think that should have been put on me and when I was that uncomfortable she should have taken the cue to say no to the other people. I would knock off a half star for that if I could but since I can’t do 4.5 stars, I’ll round up. Thankfully Nini was so amazing and the other people weren’t in there too long that it didn’t ruin my experience.

If you are beginning to shop around the Seattle area for wedding gowns, do yourself a favor and take your mom and a girlfriend or two into the Luly Yang boutique downtown! The bridal suite is so glam and I hadn’t felt like a true bride until I was pampered by Fatima and the rest of the Luly Yang team. I found a gorgeous dress and the whole experience was seamless from ordering to altering. Fatima is truly amazing and made me feel one in a million! Can’t thank her enough!

I have had many wonderful visits to Luly Yang. I often pop in with my dog and husband. Luly, Fatima and the entire staff always make us feel welcome. It doesn’t matter if we are window shopping, browsing or looking for something for a special occasion. I really enjoy all of the beautiful clothes. Luly’s designs are elegant and truly unique. I have bought a couple of dresses for my daughter’s wedding and I know I will feel confident when I wear them. The fabrics and the fit are perfect!
They even have treats for my dog, Milo:)

I was at this store recently and I was very impressed with the assistance I received from Fatima and Nini. They were so professional and courteous that I will definitely visit this store again. The windows are decorated so beautifully that they draw you in to see more.
Do yourself a favor and visit this store.

If you’re looking for professional customer service, a wide selection of dresses and a beautiful shop, Luly Yang’s boutique is a wonderful place to shop for your bridal gown. If you’re lucky enough to set aside a hefty budget for your gown, the collections are definitely worth trying on.
My bridal consultant, Nini, was wonderfully sweet and charming. She was helpful, knowledgeable and I never felt pressure from her to pick anything immediately. I visited 12 shops around the Seattle-​area and ultimately came back to Luly and picked my favorite from my first session. These gowns are handmade in-​house and turn-​around time is quicker than most of the 5 – 6 month windows from other shops. The detail on the gown is gorgeous and I cannot wait to wear it on the big day!
Luly Yang is definitely a Seattle staple if you’re looking for an elegant gown with a twist of fashion. Could not be happier to have Nini as my consultant!

I went to Luly Yang last Saturday to shop for my wedding dress. Nini helped me that day and was so sweet, kind and helpful! The store itself is beautiful and I was so happy with my experience! My bridesmaids and I were treated so well and special! I definitely recommend making an appointment if you are in search of a beautiful wedding dress and excellent, professional help! Thank you Nini and Luly Yang staff!

My experience was so so and then I met FATIMA, shortly after she was hired, at first I fell in love with her beautiful French accent then we created a relationship and I saw her beauty inside out. She truly transformed my experience.
My dress went from a beautiful vision to a reality. It was absolutely perfect, everything about it. I learned and felt the love and intention that Luly puts behind each design. My dress became mine and more special when Luly told me what she liked about my dress. She, herself, is so inspiring, a beautiful and authentic, powerful, and strong woman with incredible style.
Not only my dress, I loved my veil and each part of my dress– Luly and her team were patient with my particular requests and perfect desires.
The shop itself smells amazing! The entire environment from the smell to the beautiful pressed gowns in the windows, the white bridal room, the incredibly sweet team, and the attention to detail would make most people believe that the dresses are out-​of-​this-​world expensive however, I think they are priceless because of how special, intentional and personal the entire experience can be.
The last year of relationship with my dress, Fatima, Luly and staff has been 5 stars. If your first experience or interaction is less than I am making it out to be, I recommend giving them another chance, meet Fatima, she will meet all her promises and truly make your experience the best she can.
Oh and for kicks, my photographer was Peter Mahar, I posted a couple photos– so you can see this perfect dress that made my wedding dreams come true.
Enjoy your experience!

I would absolutely recommend wedding dress shopping at Luly Yang. I originally purchased a dress from another shop. That original dress designer stopped making it in white (yes a wedding dress designer that doesn’t carry white was a bit shocking). At that point I started to worry that I wouldn’t have a dress and looked at several stores. The Luly Yang experience was so different than any other boutiques. Jennifer Stelmakh was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable — hands down amazing. The quality of a Luly dress is terrific, styles are unique and classic and the Luly Boutique really gives you a personal experience. In addition their alterations staff is incredible. I heard stories about huge alterations charges by other boutiques and was again blown away by Luly Yang’s great customer service from start to finish. Then to top it off the day before our wedding my sister accidentally torn a small area on my veil. No problem! The veil was taken to the Luly Yang store immediately and they fixed it and delivered it back to the hotel. Start to finish, the Luly Yang staff made the bridal gown experience stress-​free, memorable, and best of all helped make a girl feel incredibly beautiful to marry the guy of her dreams. Thank you Luly Yang!

It’s a lovely shop with beautiful dresses and a great boutique experience. But they haven’t responded to my emails and told me I can’t take any photos of the dresses I’ve tried on because they didn’t want anyone stealing their designs — but then they let a fellow bride take photos a week later. I guess I just look more like I’m going to steal something?
Some of the employees come off as very snobby and I feel like I’m being judged half the time go in (I have a lot of friends/​family getting married right now and I am also getting married soon so I’ve been in a good number of times).
Still, they have a lot of pretty stuff and I’m sure you’ll have a good experience if you don’t look shady like I do with my pastel pink hair. I ended up buying a dress from Nordstrom instead, although I would have preferred couture.

What an extraordinary experience I had. Probably much different than most. I came across Luly Yang quite by accident online. I loved one of the dresses and thought it would be perfect as my mother of the bride dress. I had it shipped and it came right away in a beautiful box with gorgeous blue satin ribbon. Opening a meticulously wrapped dress in beautifully folded tissue, a hand written note in a blue, embossed envelope made me realize even before I saw the dress that this store did everything with so much care and attention to their clients. I loved the dress, but it was too small, so I called the store. i connected with Fatina, who could not have been nicer and was told they would send next size. No problem. I actually received Fed Ex before the store could have received my return. When does that ever happen? It’s as if I’ve found a gem!

Had I not been offered a free dress, I would have been a LY bride. Coming to this place is far the best amongst the few bridal stores we’ve visited. Besides the elegant and most beautifully made bridal gowns, the top notch service by sales associate, JENNIFER, made the experience most memorable. She made us feel very well accommodated. She gave us her full attention. She had such thorough knowledge of each gown down to the most intricate details. very sweet lady! And oh! They do the alterations themselves so that’s a plus. Most recommend definitely!

I’ve waited a while to finally right this review… here goes nothing!
I went to Luly Yang after trying on 40+ dresses in multiple states (I got engaged and soon after moved to Seattle), everything from Lazaro to Vera Wang. My initial appointment was filled with trying on many of the beautiful Luly dresses as well as Enzoani. LYC has dresses at all price points which is great, and they make each visit to the store a true experience. I found a few styles during that initial visit that I liked, but nothing was giving me the «I found my dress!» feeling. My consultant, Meg, took down the information and allowed me to schedule a follow up visit.
A few weeks passed and I decided to return for a couture appointment. If you know what you want and can’t find something that fits the mold, this is the place to create it! Meg and I pulled 6 or 7 dresses with similar overall shapes. We then proceeded to drape different fabrics and sashes over these existing designs. I literally picked out everything from the french lace to the buttons and Meg created detailed sketches that documented exactly what the dress would look like. She also was a great sounding board for ideas and it’s always nice to work with someone that has impeccable style.
It is a little unnerving to spend $ 5K plus on a dress you’ve never actually tried on but LYC makes sure you are comfortable with every detail. Every couture gown price includes alterations which also allows you to tweak changes as the final product develops. Meg even helped me created a detachable train (Kate Middleton style)! They are so flexible and always very response, I’ve been in an annoying number of times (6 times at this stage). I ended up selecting a custom luly sash ($ 500) for the big day, and I swear on my life there is not one out there that could top this one– it gently balances chic and romantic and the intricate detail is amazing. I also appreciated the ability to purchase a veil and shoes on site. LYC was a one stop shop for me and I could not be happier with the experience. I recently decided to purchase a reception dress and went with a floor length Nicole Miller dress, from LYC of course. Needless to say I’ve had a love affair with LYC and Meg for the past 9 months and could not be more excited to dawn my custom Luly in a few short months.
I have one last fitting left before my wedding in September and I truly can not wait. Meg is a magician… Go see her ASAP!

This place is fantastic — amazing dresses with the ability to pretty much style your own gowns. We were greeted warmly when we walked in, and were handled with such professional and awesome customer service. The dresses were stunning — absolutely incredible. Be forewarned — the dresses are costly, but entirely worth it if you are looking for a gorgeous, one-​of-​a-​kind, glamorous dress.
I would definitely recommend this to friends, family, and anyone who is looking for a wedding dress!

My friends and I have always drooled over Luly Yang’s dresses in the window, so we decided to take the wedding dress shopping opportunity to visit her store. I’m so glad I did!
I just had my bridal consultation with Meg & Natalie and they were great! Not pushy, and very friendly and professional. Meg has a great eye for style and design.
We were on the lower end of their price range (around $ 1000-​$ 1500), but there were plenty of dresses and sale items to try on. She even let me try on some expensive dresses just for fun! The highlight was when she brought out the blue Monarch dress so that we can see it in person.
I haven’t purchased my dress yet, but I keep thinking of that one Luly Yang design that is so unique and really stands out from all the other dresses that I’ve tried on. Alteration estimate wasn’t cheap, but I think it’ll be worth it.
Thank you, Meg & Natalie, for a great experience!

I just love Luly Yang Couture! Her styles are always cutting edge and gorgeous, and the staff their are so attentive and sweet! Andrew is always there to greet me and my brides (I am a local wedding planner!) with a huge smile and great service! Always a great experience shopping for a wedding gown at their boutique.
Also I have done several wedding styled shoots with their gowns and I am in love! The look amazing on film and photos and it’s again always a great experience working with them!
GORGEOUS dresses Luly Yang!!!

I adore LYC. I’ve been to a couple of Luly Yang’s fashion shows and the productions are always amazing. At last year’s show at Fremont Studios, real customers were included on the runway modeling items they’ve purchased. It was awesome to see woman from beautiful brides to older ladies strutting their stuff.
I’m getting married in August, so I went to the sample sale last month. While I didn’t find my dress, I was given great services from a gent named Andrew. I’ll be back to try on more dresses when I’m done working on my bridal body. There is a gorgeous bridal gown I am eyeing that is in the window display.
Two thumbs up!

If Mr. Big had ever commissioned architects and designers to construct and fill Carrie’s dream closet in Sex and the City, it would still pale in comparison to Luly Yang’s shop in downtown Seattle. Located in the Fairmont’s picturesque building, Luly’s home base is more like every woman’s fantasy couture playground than a mere «dress shop.»
No need to be intimidated, though. Admittedly, I felt out of place the first time I walked into the shop to browse. That lasted .2 seconds. I was immediately greeted by friendly staff members who were more than happy to take me on a mini-​tour of the different rooms, even though they knew I wasn’t necessarily planning to purchase anything. Now, I visit regularly and always feel at home (a VERY upgraded home!)
Seattle is lucky to have our very own couture designer. In a city that was once defined by its grunge movement, it’s refreshing to see Luly Yang’s design take Seattle fashion to a new level.

I’ve never tried on wedding dresses before nor have I accompanied friends to try on dresses so I didn’t know what to expect during my appointment here. Jill, my salesperson, was very low pressure, friendly, and open. I’m sure my budget was on the very low end of what their store sells but Jill didn’t even flinch. When I selected dresses that were multiple times my budget, she gracefully told me that the dresses were «slightly above my price point» but I was welcome to try them on anyway. I never felt uncomfortable here and my ridiculously amateurish questions were fielded without any flinching or awkwardness. She helped me try on a few dresses. I ended up liking one simple Nicole Miller frock quite a bit, but as this is the first store I’ve visited, I refrained from purchasing until I’ve explored other options.

Absolutely gorgeous store. Even if you’re not quite in the market for a couture, multi-​thousand dollar dress or gown, Luly Yang is a Seattle staple. This incredible Seattle-​based designer has such gorgeous designs that it’s difficult not to stop and stare at the store windows when walking past. And even harder not to walk in and check things out!
The customer service is superb, the location is convenient both for locals and visitors and in addition to dresses there are also lovely accessories to adore. Haven’t been here yet? Well, hurry up!

I already had my wedding dress by the time I went to Luly — I was looking for some accessories.
Pros:
— I had a belt custom made for me based off of a similar belt they had in the store. it turned out beautifully!
— I got earrings and a necklace here that are stunning
— Staff was generally friendly
Cons:
— Unable to alter my dress since it was purchased somewhere else
— Recommended someone to alter my dress who no longer alters wedding dresses! Total pain since if you’ve ever had to transport a wedding dress around you know how inconvenient it is to bring it one place just to find out you have to bring it somewhere else
— If you don’t have an appointment, you can’t do anything but look at non-​wedding stuff in the front of the store
Overall — the pros greatly outweigh the cons since the pros are really the key Luly business and they all were wonderful. Just wanted to make sure people were aware of everything.
