Sylvia's Boutique

Sylvia’s Boutique is a hidden gem in Flushing for modern couples looking for authentic, well-made qipaos and Tang jackets without Manhattan markups. Brides rave about Sylvia’s 20+ years of experience, her honesty during fittings, and her attention to detail. Custom dresses are made through her Guangdong workshop and typically take six weeks, with prices ranging from around $450 off-the-rack to $950+ for custom pieces. Many love that she’s flexible with appointments, transparent about costs, and accommodating for tight wedding timelines (one couple even got matching his-and-hers outfits made in under three weeks). Do note that her shop is by appointment only, so make sure to call to schedule before coming in.
