I recently bought a dress at Kelima and had a truly unique and remarkable experience that I felt I had to write about. Usually when I shop for a dress I am met with relatively impersonal not to mention pushy salespeople. Shopping at Kelima was anything but impersonal. The dresses speak for themselves but Kelima and her staff were so sweet and helpful and really understood what I was looking for. She did my alterations on site and made sure the dress fit perfectly. It felt amazing to wear something that seemed almost tailor made for me! Her wedding dresses are also breathtaking. I was I had discovered this store when I was looking for my wedding dress. I would definitely have wanted to be married in a Kelima original!
Pros: Beautiful dresses, on site tailor, helpful salespeople
Cons: I wish I lived downtown so I could go more often!

When I found Kelima it was such a relief! I was always searching for original, stylish well made dresses to wear that not everyone had and it was a panicked struggle. When I found her I felt like this was my personal secret designer and always had one of her pieces in my back pocket for that last minute event. I think I now have 5 of her pieces in my closet that I can wear to any occasion as well as a suit jacket that I wear with jeans in LA! I can't wait to get married so I can really work one of her specialties!
