Constructive Criticism
Your clothing was beautiful and the service was helpful and kind. But your store was FREEZING! It made it difficult for my wife to undress and shortened our visit.

Fabulous Fitting with Friends
A good friend of mine is having a themed event and asked me where to get a good corset. Based on having been here before and trying on a corset out of curiosity, I knew Dark Garden would be our stop! Setting the appointment was very simple and last. I received a confirmation email right after scheduling and a reminder email an hour before my appointment. Three of us attended, we all have different body types and there was something for all of us. Annabelle did a phenomenal job answering questions and offering insight into the best styles for our curves and aesthetics. If she couldn't answer a specific question, Autumn was available to weigh in on any inquiry we had by phone! The experience was and always is amazing when we stop in. Everyone is always lovely, 100/10 recommend it!

Medical Corset Saves the Day - I can breathe again!
I have a connective tissue disorder and stabilizing my spine and ribs seemed impossible until I met Autumn. (Dark Garden was recommended by my physical therapist.) It is not easy for me to dress myself in general, so when I learned how easy it was for me to corset myself with the special strapping, I was amazed! After a long career on stage with ill-fitting costumes, I shared some of my fitting room fears. Autumn immediately put me at ease and made sure each step of the process was comfortable and positive.

Remote Fitting
Overall, the team was very kind, informative, and had so much patience. This is a place that really cares about their clientele, and they are willing to help even if they have to create you a corset. They will walk you through it every step of the way. I am a disabled, curvy woman who is in a wheelchair and I have never had a company willing to work with me as much as this corset company has. I cannot wait to meet them in September for my fitting! If you’re looking for a place that actually cares and is willing to go with you every step of the way this is the place!

Great in-person fitting = New Lifetime Client
Jessica was fantastic in helping me with my fitting. She made me feel so comfortable in trying different corset styles and was so kind in explaining everything about corsets and Dark Garden Corsetry. I already know I'm going to be a life-time client with them. I can't wait to purchase my first Dark Garden corset.

Great remote fitting experience
Autumn and Carynn are very professional during remote fittings. They offered their guidance and assistance on how to create a corset that would best suit my body. As someone with scoliosis, it's important to ensure the right measurements and patterns are taken. I felt comfortable with the questions they asked and their recommendations.

Awsome Autumn!!!
I am so grateful to have found Dark Gardens. From the time I called on the phone and spoke with Jessica (also AWESOME) to my fittings with AWESOME Autumn the experience has been exquisite. Autumn and Jessica have been welcoming, inclusive for our wedding needs. My sons Alex and JD are marrying their partners Joey and Andre. I am a 67 yo physician, full sized, who spends most of my time in scrubs. I rarely dress up any more. When I struck out at Nordstroms, Saks and NM I turned to the internet and found Dark Gardens. Autumn had exceeded my expectations. While the corsets are still being made, I know that on my son's wedding days I wll have unique, beautiful outfits that will complement the wedding parties. Thank you Autumn for helping me with my vision. You and Jessica are exceptional!!!!

Fantastic Experience with Fantastic Quality
I had a wonderful time with Jessica at the San Francisco location. She was so knowledgeable and fun while also helping me be completely comfortable both physically in the fit of the corset and emotionally. She found the best styles that flattered my figure and talked about the minor adjustments that could be done. While not every cut was perfect for me as is, I found two that absolutely are and I hope to soon save up for at least one of them. Overall just a wonderful experience.
