Sashas House - Shop CA (Near Oakland)

5 /5 Gary-Yau Chan: We found the perfect outfits for our Chinese wedding banquet. The owner was super nice, welcoming, and not pushy at all. We tried a few shops in San Franciscos Chinatown. And decided to drive to Oakland for Sasha. The owner was helpful and patient, taking out many different styles for us to try and giving great advice. Tailoring was quick and easy. Highly recommend this place if you need a Chinese banquet outfit. Definitely the best experience we had.

5 /5 Vivian Luong: I found my qipao for my Tea Ceremony at Sashas! The staff were friendly and patient with my sister and I as we tried on a large selection of their qipaos, which were all reasonably priced. I bought my qipao a year in advance and lost a bit of weight by my Tea Ceremony, but they were able to do a quick alteration and it fit like a glove. I wanted to lift the Phoenix design so itd sit higher on my bust, but it was too complicated of an alteration and they warned the neckline might not sit as straight if they took everything apart. I appreciated their transparency, and the finished product still turned out great! Thanks for helping me feel like a princess on my special day!

5 /5 Laris Wils: Great place to find a quipao! I came to find something not too expensive for my Chinese tea ceremony, since I’ll be in it an hour max and I went over budget with my white bridal gown. I had been looking at Etsy and few other websites, and they’d either be outrageously expensive, or I was worried about fit (particularly when a lot were not refundable). I googled and found Sasha’s house. The shopkeeper (who I assume is Sasha) was super sweet and patient. I tried on three different quipaos and was really indecisive. I am a size XS/0 and for her dresses, was a size small. They all fit good, with plenty of room to move. It was great to be able to try on a variety of them and move around and kneel, to get a feel of it. What’s great is even though I’m insanely short, with heels, all these dresses would work. The prices for her quipaos range from $45 to $78 to $288—it all depends on the fabric and if it’s got a lot of gold (vs “yellow) or if it’s lined, etc. Prices are on the tags too, so you know she’s not coming up with a random number based on clientele. I ended up choosing a beautiful dragon one, mid-range in price, that I don’t need altered. My fiancé went with a blue suit jacket with gold dragons and gold cuff sleeves. We were hoping for black and gold, but she didn’t carry it. We could’ve found one online, but the shopkeeper was so nice and spent so much time with us, we wanted to support her and purchase locally. We went with blue and it works with some of the blue on the dragons on my dress. Please patronize this place if you’re looking for any Chinese outfits—whether simple or luxe, she really has such a great range. And much better prices than SF Chinatown where the $45 quipaos at Sasha’s are $110+ there.

5 /5 L H: The Aunty was very nice. She made me feel comfortable trying on different dresses and explained all the details of why one dress was pricier than the others. They have a lot of selections even though the place looks small. They also do alterations there as well, fast and cheaper. Cheongsam can range from $40-300. I bought my dress there, saved me a trip to SF which can be a pain. They do not do custom made Cheongsam or qipaos, you would need to go to SF for that.
