    Riiti is extraordinary! My coworker let me borrow a saree for Diwali celebration at work but I needed a blouse. I called Riiti and she was able to see me right away. As soon as I walked into her boutique she made me feel comfortable. She was very attentive to me. She took my measurements and showed me the blouses that would fit both my body and my budget. She was very honest with what looked good on me, and she has great taste. The next morning when I came by to pick up my blouse she was kind enough to help me wrap my saree and put on my jewelry. She made me feel like a total princes! I received a lot of compliments at work everyone said I looked like a Bollywood star! Everyone was asking me where I got my shirt and of course I recommended Ritti boutique to them. I had a great experience for my first time boutique shopping. I can't wait to do it again!

    Renuka is absolutely wonderful: she's patient, knows what's happening in the Indian fashion scene, understands the aesthetic of the person and doesn't force her opinion. Her process is flawless. She helped us with all our clothes for a 4 day wedding for the whole family.. mom-daughter and father-son matching clothes! I LOVE the outfits, we stood out for the right reasons : ) The workmanship is impeccable, the timing was great. She even re-did the kids' clothes because the my son went through a growth spurt. I am waiting for the next occasion so I can work with her again.

    I had the best experience! Renuka was beyond accommodating! I had an event to attend on a Saturday, and Friday evening I still had no outfit! I came by Renuka's house without an appointment. She was not home, but her husband was very kind, let me in and gave me some time to look at all the beautiful sarees. He called Renuka right away and even though she was busy, she asked to come back in an hour. I did and within minutes not only did she help me find the most beautiful saree, she tailored it on the spot and gave me a complimentary gift. She is very kind and knowledgeable. Her prices are more than reasonable. I will definitely go back and highly recommend her to anyone who appreciates beautiful fabric and craftsmanship! Thank you so much for my Saree! I received many compliments and had the best time at the event!!! :)

    Shopping for your wedding attire can be very stressful and this review is long overdue. Renuka was wonderful to work with. Not only did she work with me to make my wedding Sari, but she also made my reception lengha. I did not know what I wanted and not only did she help pick out the perfect colors, she also was able to help me find the best outfits for my body type. I was impressed with the quality of the design, fabric and final garment. When they arrived we had a final fitting and she was accommodating and worked quickly on some changes. My husband was also very pleased with his outfit for our wedding day. Thanks, Renuka! I would highly recommend working with her!

    Renuka did my blouses for a bunch of silk saris and a ghagra choli that I got from India. I have always had a problem with fit because I have very wide shoulders. Other people who have done my blouses have always made it tight on my shoulders and loose in other places but Renuka was able to get the fit exactly right. Not only that, but she did some custom embroidery on all the blouses, and they look absolutely fabulous! I would highly recommend her for any Indian clothes needs :)

    I have worked with Renuka on a few occasions now, and have been very pleased with her services each time! More recently, she made a custom dupatta for my wedding lengha. Throughout the process, she was very professional - offered to meet for a consultation visit, offered a transparent quote (her prices are high but they seem to be at market rate with similar Bay Area vendors), and gave me space as a customer to review my options and get back to her at a later time. I had met with similar Bay Area designers who were much more aggressive in trying to make a sale, which ruined the customer experience. Renuka's professionalism truly stands out. She also delivered a high quality final product that I was proud to wear on my wedding day.

    Renuka made the lehenga for my wedding -- she has a great eye and easily picked up on my preferences just as I was looking through things. I didn't have a great sense of what I wanted, but as I noticed details I liked (the embroidery on this blouse, the color of that skirt) she was able to quickly pinpoint my preferences and pulled out a sari with a border that was absolutely perfect for me. Because I wanted a lehenga, she then worked with me to recreate the sari as a lehenga and picked out specific colors for the fabric and embroidery to best match what I liked about the sari. Her suggestions were great (she drove the process, and just checked in with me about what colors, cuts, and embroidery I liked) and she totally respected that I wanted something very simple, while also digging through her stores to find pretty and creative ways to accomplish what I liked.

    She runs her store from her home and has a nice studio/dressing room with lots of outfits to look through. She's also very accessible (she texts through WhatsApp) and it is very easy to get an appointment with her. Her turnaround time is also very reasonable, and she has said she is happy to make minor fitting adjustments (same day turnaround!) to the blouse closer to the wedding date if I need it.

    I am picky about my outfits, but I really enjoyed the experience and got a lehenga I absolutely love. She is warm, friendly, as detail-oriented as I am and totally "got" me!

    Fantastic sari! Awesome service! Came here to pick something out for my girlfriend and Renu was very helpful. She offered a lot of suggestions and offered some great choices for my girlfriend. It was our anniversary and I would have been in the dog pound had it not been for Renu's excellent suggestions. Will be recommending to everyone! A+ experience.

    I am sorry for writing my review this late.. so here's my experience.

    I was searching for a boutique in the Bay Area for my best friend's wedding. No joke, we seriously had a month left and couldn't find any outfit that'd fit her perfect. We FaceTimed with my best friend while at Riiti's and more than us, Renuka was so excited and helped us make the right choices. Oh the best part is, we got our outfits in a week ready and had it shipped to my friend. Renuka is so much fun to talk to and shop with. She can easily judge what suits best for us!

    Thanks so much Renuka for putting up with our crazy conversations and being there for us in such a time crunch.

    Renuka, who is the designer of Riiti Fashions, is so friendly, helpful and accommodating. I had six outfits made and I love them! The selection she has to work with is amazingly broad and diverse and she can work with other fabrics and completely custom orders as well. Out of my six garments, three of them were completely custom orders from scratch while the other three were based off of existing fabric+embroidery sets.

    PLACE OF OPERATION:
    Renuka operates our of her beautiful home in Evergreen, so you get some good one-on-one focus without the distractions of a store in a mall. She has a large room where you can try on garments and sample fabrics. In there, there is a large selection of blouses, skirts, salwars, kurtis and saris to choose from, as well as many fabric sets to browse through, and a full-length mirror to see yourself in. There is also a comfortable and quiet sitting area on the other side of the hall where you can relax if there is another customer being serviced at the time. She has one more room adjacent to the fitting room where you can privately change your clothes if she is already working with another customer.

    The home that she works out of is very clean and I did not smell any strong fragrances, so the clothing that you get from Riiti fashions does not have any strange odors, smoke or incense residue. I did not smell any pet smells or see any pet hair either. The flooring is all hard, with no carpet, so there are no stray fibers to affect the garments.

    GARMENT QUALITY:
    The dyes used on the cloth seem to be safe and do not have strong smells. The embroidery craftsmanship is top notch. I did not get any beadwork done, so I cannot comment much on that, but the beadwork that I saw on other garments looked like it was done by a very skilled hand. The same goes for mirror and glass features on garments that I saw. I had one garment made that includes small sequins and the skill put into that looks very masterful.

    She has a wide variety of different types of silks, cottons, georgettes and other fabrics to browse through and they're all high quality. Again, she can also work with fabrics that she does not readily have on hand, which she did for me for two of my garments.

    BUSINESS STYLE:
    Renuka has a modern approach to her operation, using Pinterest to browse styles and fabrics, saving them off to a custom Pinterest Board for you and then narrowing down the options over time before designing the final outfits. I really appreciated this modern approach, especially since she can then send the Pinterest Board off to me so that I can easily reference it later. Likewise, I am now working on another Pinterest Board of my own for getting ideas for my next garments and I'll later send that Board off to Renuka when I am ready to start working on future designs.

    In addition to using Pinterest, Renuka also accepts all major credit cards for payment, which is another great modern approach to her operation.

    For my order, which was six salwar kameez garments (3 from existing fabric sets, 3 totally custom) ordered in late June, the order was completed in late August. The original estimate she gave me was late August to early September, so her estimate was very accurate.

    Renuka walked me through an itemized breakdown of the charges for each garment both when I placed the order and when I picked up and paid the balance (I put a percentage down at the time of ordering) on the completed order, so I new exactly what I was paying for. She even re-ran all of the original calculations in front of me at the end to make sure that there were no discrepancies in the balance due.

    A nice perk: Because of how many garments I ordered, she did not charge me for the embroidery.

    Working with Renuka's Riiti Fashions was a wonderful experience, all around, yielding breathtaking garments for both casual and formal occasions and the garments fit me perfectly. I will definitely be going back to her in the future.

    I had only a few weeks to get my wedding lehenga made after my initial wedding outfit came from India with very bad fitting and was therefore unwearable for the wedding. Renuka did a tremendous job working with me on the design, colors, and overall look for my wedding lehenga. She made the lehenga on a fast time frame (~1 month) and I loved the final result!

    I looked up Riiti fashions on Yelp . After reading many fine reviews I decided to take my client there. She will be attending an Indian wedding in Canada. Renuka , the owner of the home boutique was very gracious receiving us at a short notice and patiently spending a few hours with us selecting two ensembles for the client. She had great suggestions, accommodated us with all our requests and finished the alterations on time as promised. We visited a second time and chose one more top which is being altered and send out to the client directly.

    I highly recommend this business as she has a nice selection of Indian attires, she gives you her undivided attention and delivers on time.

    My name is Poorna and a week ago I was frantically searching for Indian wear a week before my graduation. Renuka's shop was a blessing. She has a good collection with the entire spectrum ranging from very traditional to the contemporary and I was so glad I found her! She is the sweetest person I have ever met in any business and she is very magnanimous. I bought a saree at first and had second thoughts about it, had to return, buy another one that didn't work out well and then return again to go back to the original one all in 2-3 days span. OMG, she was gracious enough to go back to the original offer and didn't make any fuss about it in order to accommodate my needs! I'm thrilled I found her and I'm looking forward to go back again!!

    This is my first review on Yelp. I generally do not take everyone's word. However, after a very happy and satisfying experience at Riiti, I have realized that these reviews are real since it even drove me to join Yelp. Even though I have bought latest design outfits from Renuka in the past, however, this time, with a week away from my daughter's wedding, I was at my wit's end since a couple of outfits were not fitting me. She came to my rescue. With her expertise and great care, she not only fixed them but even helped me with different ways to drape them. Her immense knowledge of the fashion industry and of designing clothes with her creative mind, help the customers feel beautiful. Best part is that she can get clothes stitched in your choice of materials, colors and by meeting your other needs. This is something very rare to find elsewhere. One can only believe all this by visiting her!!

    Renuka: She is awesome and has the best selection for Indian clothes in Bay Area. I had less than two months to finalize my dream saree for my two states ( south + North Indian) style wedding and she helped me a lot and had the best saree for me for my big day. My sister's and mom's clothes were also from Ritti fashions and we all looked fabulous.

    Thanks a ton Renuka for all your help from selecting the right saree to draping it. Thanks a lot for a beautiful flowers and an awesome wedding card.

    I will highly recommend Ritti fashions for all kinds of Indian clothing for all kind's of big and small events.

    Thanks and regards,
    Ruchi arya

    Renuka was my savior! I had a little over a month to find my dream wedding dress and I pretty much went to every place I could find on yelp in the bay area but nothing came even close to being what I was looking for. When I went to Riiti Fashions I took a quick glance over her collection and I loved a lot of her pieces (which was a first for me!) and after listening to my description Renuka managed to pull out the one perfect ghagra that was made for me! I didn't take it off all evening :D She helped me mix and match different styles of the choli and chunri and she even added some beautiful details like the Rajasthani gota patti and pearls and kundan to my dress to make it unique and custom made for my taste. Everyone at my reception was totally blown away by the dress and wanted to know where I got it from! I absolutely love this dress and I am so thankful to Renuka for working with me till midnight to figure out exactly what I wanted! She is amazing and if you are looking for something special then Riiti Fashions is the place to go :)

  • *****

    Even though I ended up not going with Renuka for my wedding lehenga, I could not recommend her enough! She is a very talented designer and has a great selection of casual and special occasion items, all of which are truly unique. You will not find them on any websites for sure. She can also work with you to design something from scratch and have it customized, including heavy embroidery. I was very surprised with her more than reasonable pricing as well, compared to a lot of bridal shops in Fremont and surrounding areas. Even customized items are probably half the price that the other stores quote. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of occasions for festive wear, otherwise I would be getting something from Renuka on a regular basis.

  • *****

    I have worked with Renuka from Riiti Fashions and absolutely LOVE her sarees, blouses, kurtis everything. Though I make several trips to India each year yet I bring back all my blouse pieces to have Renuka stitch them for me. I am extremely finicky and picky but I have to wholeheartedly say that I always come out of Ritii Fashions totally satisfied. Her suggestions are totally 'out of the box' and she does a marvelous job each time. Renuka knows her customers' tastes and works with them to make sure they are happy. I would highly recommend Riiti Fashions.

  • *****

    This was long due and finally i did find some time to review Riti Fashions, specially for the fact that I found her on yelp. And glad that I did.
    Like any other new thing that we try, I was skeptical as to what would be the outcome. But my inquisitions were put to rest when I visited Renuka personally and got to see her amazing collection of blouses and the work she does.
    Well, any doubts that I still had were gone when I received the 3 blouses I had ordered. They were perfect. the styles, embroidery, all of it, bang on!
    I only have good things to say and will definitely suggest Riti Fashions, if you are someone looking for something stylish, elegant and contemporary!!!

    I have been in the search of a perfect Lehenga for a long time now, just because I really wanted a customized one for keepsake in my wardrobe. If you live in the bay area, you know that the accessibility to indian stuff here can sometimes create unnecessary confusion and you land up paying way more than what a product actually deserves. Even if you carry designer pictures of an outfit you love, chances are that you will most likely receive a simple, cheap quality knock-off in exchange for your money. So I took my time to locate a place that made me feel comfortable and came across Ritii Fashions. The designer, Renuka is very creative, professional and extremely trustworthy. She works her way out through your needs and is well-educated about the current Indian fashion or 'whats-in these days' back in India. My first visit to her home-based boutique was quite the spectacle. I fell in love with her detailed work on blouses and the fabric-choices she had for Lehengas. She invests time in knowing what you want without rushing you into making a purchase.
    The final design of my Lehenga was absolutely spectacular and I am glad I went ahead with Renuka. I will highly recommend her to everyone who is looking for modern yet-traditional Indian outfits.

    Riiti's outfits are so unique and amazing - I would rather go all the way to San Jose even though there are ton of Indian clothing stores in East Bay. Not only that, but Riiti has such a classy and royal taste in design and outlook with respect to her outfits. This is my only go-to place for a sari or lehenga for special occasions. We went in around evening and shopped for our outfits till about 10pm. She did not rush us at all, and in fact offered us snacks, tea and water. That level of friendly and sweet customer service is so rare. We are not only pleased by her selection but also her attitude. Even though her outfits are pricey, I personally feel they are very high quality and non-repeated in terms of pattern and design.

  • *****

    Love Renuka & her creativity!! She is very talented when it comes to design and working with colors. Based on the individual's style and preference, she makes great suggestions and comes up with so many options to choose from. Custom embroidery work she does is Ah-mazing!! Any outfit designed/stitched from her looks great and fits perfectly. I get so many compliments when I wear them. Great service!! If you are looking for unique outfits and want to turn heads, this is the place to go to. I am a happy customer at Riiti Fashions.

  • *****

    I came to Ritiis Fashion because of the good reviews she has. I was not at all disappointed. I wanted a Lehenga for an event which was in 2 days of my coming to her boutique. The whole process was so smooth. I found an amazing Lehenga. Her collection is really good. I never expected to find such an great dress in such a short notice. She was very helpful and did a great job with the alterations.
    I highly recommend getting your next Indian attire from her :)

  • *****

    Riiti fashions is awesome. They have a great selection. It is hard to come from there without purchasing anything. The outfits here are elegant, and one of a kind. Renuka has a wonderful eye for colors and designs and her clothes are very tastefully done. She also has a good eye for details. She will work with you till you are satisfied with the end product. She has many casual and high end clothes, so there is a large variety to choose from. She can also custom make them for you.
    High recommend getting your Indian clothes from here. I have been a customer for a long time and will continue to do so.

    Renuka is great when it comes to designing wedding lenghas. I had an american-indian fusion wedding and wanted to get a lengha that included aspects from both cultures. She made a wonderful outfit, and was flexible and willing to work with my ideas. She made it in a timely fashion and I was very happy with the finished product!

  • *****

    Most people I know travel to India to buy their wedding outfits and jewelry, mainly because of the choices and its cheaper. I decided not to because (a) I didn't have time, (b) shopping in India is a pain, and (c) things in India are really not that cheap.

    My aunt told me about her friend Renu who owns riiti, so I decided to see what she has. My mom and I went there the first time, and not kidding, we straight up bought 3 outfits because they were that beautiful! I bought a few saris and the blouses that she designed ended up fitting perfectly. Based on that, I decided to go with her to design my reception and sangeet outfits. She was so patient in helping me figure out what I want, even though I was indecisive and inarticulate. When I had finally figured it out, it took about an hour of discussing with her, and then ~2 months to actually get the dresses made. I just got them back this weekend, and they were EXACTLY what I was asking for. I am so excited to wear these dresses!

    A lot of things involving wedding planning are not fun, but working with her was a true joy. You can really tell the passion she puts into her designs and the pride she feels when her customers are happy. I will definitely be coming back for other outfits and highly recommend her if you need an Indian outfit for a special occasion!

  • *****

    I have gotten couple of outfits made by Riti Fashion. The owner talked to me understood my style very fast. She then had couple outfits and suggestions ready for me. I had also made known that I had a budget and she was able to get me two outfits that were gorgeous in my budget. I would recommend this place for affordable and latest trend.

  • *****

    I've been to many lehenga/saree boutiques in the Bay Area, and this is by far my favorite place. I wanted to get a lehenga made to match my engagement ring colors (aqua and royal blue) and found Renuka on yelp. It was very easy to get an appointment, and Renuka was so much fun to work with! It is obvious that Renuka loves her work and takes pride in helping people create beautiful, unique pieces. She gave excellent suggestions for how we should design the lehenga to include both colors. Plus, her friendly personality made the experience extra pleasant.

    In less than a month, Renuka contacted me to let me know that my lehenga was ready. It turned out beautifully, and I take it out to admire every few days. While I was there, Renuka showed me a gorgeous red embroidered lehenga that she had recently designed. If only I had a reason to buy that piece! Definitely contact her if you are looking for a unique work of art!

  • *****

    Renuka was so helpful from the very beginning. I had an awful experience with another dress shop who ruined my bridesmaids' gowns. Luckily, with only one month before the wedding Renuka was able to create and custom design 6 gowns in time for the wedding. Her turn around time on the dresses was great and I couldn't have asked for better customer service.

    She worked well with each of my girls to design tops they all felt comfortable in to wear with their sarees. Renuka was flexible and worked around everyone's schedule. She even created a perfect fitting top over the phone for one of the girls that lived in New York.

    I loved working with Renuka so much! She even helped many of my wedding guests find sarees. I would definitely suggest her to anyone looking for beautifully made lenghas and sarees.

  • *****

    Renuka was very quick to make our last minute bridal sarees and they came out great. She definitely has an eye for fashion and designed each bridesmaid saree uniquely to fit each individual. She is very nice and has a flexible schedule.

  • *****

    Love Renuka! She runs her boutique out of her home. It's a small room with a few designs. She's on top of the latest fashions and designs both for both young & fashionable and more traditional as well. I brought her the fabrics from India and she custom made my blouse and I also got a petticoat. She had lots of suggestions on what would look good and what's on trend. I would say to see her ASAP because it does take weeks to complete. As a non-Indian, I didn't have much of an idea of what to expect (all my sarees are very traditional) and she suggested a more stylish blouse which I totally love. I have enough sarees, but maybe I should add another and get it custom designed by Renuka... haha ... I'm also really considering to get my sarees pre-stitched...

  • *****

    Renuka designed my engagement and wedding blouses. I found out about Renuka's home boutique through my sister who was researching online for wedding outfits. I loved the variety of designs she has in her home store. Great custom designing, tailoring and fittings! She is very flexible to work with and offers numerous creative ideas. She has a nice mix to choose from - glamorous to simple to traditional to designer wear. You can see from her collection that her designs are up to date with latest trends. I got custom designing for all of my blouses which got shipped to India and back to her home store in 6-8 weeks. The blouses with the custom hand work were of excellent quality, fit very well and looked gorgeous! Minor alteration was required for my engagement blouse which was done right away. Renuka goes out of her way to make you feel at home and connects with you on a personal level as well! I would highly recommend Riiti Fashions and I am so happy we found her store online!

  • *****

    Amazing variety and collection of blouses, she is very in tune with the latest trends and color matching ! I had ideas in my head for blouses brought in my sarees and she created them exactly how I asked! A touch steep but with the material already there it took less than 10 days to have the blouse ready, if you want to customize I recommend going at least 3 weeks ahead of the event to make sure she has the material you're talking about or if she needs to order it
    Otherwise very kind sweet and efficient woman, highly recommend coming here

  • *****

    Renuka is the boutique owner and she runs her shop from her home. She has an extensive collection of cholis and its apparent that she takes great pride in her work. She is very accommodating and works with her customers to make unique customized pieces.

    She will also accept photos from customers to help have custom pieces made for weddings and special events. She states that she can rush alterations in 2 days but typically takes 7-10 days. If extensive embroidery is required for pieces, she typically has pieces sent to India (to her sister) and returned in 6-8 weeks.

    She was very friendly and gave me a break down of the types of materials used and the quality work put into her pieces. This is the equivalent of having pieces sent to India to have them made to the latest style, except she's in a local area! I'm excited to have found this place and thoroughly impressed! High recommend!

  • *****

    Renuka of Riiti Fashions has a wonderful collection of sarees, blouses, suits, and more. I have bought several items and introduced others to her. All have been happy with the selection. The tailoring to adjust fitting of blouses has been perfect and so extremely well done. Her schedule is always accommodating and she is quite friendly and helpful to shop with. I recommend her highly to all.

  • *****

    I really loved the collection. Also highly appreciable is the on time delivery. The stiching and designing of blouses was wonderful. Also she has variety of stitched blouses from which you can choose, if you want something urgently.

    Love it !!!

  • *****

    Would highly recommend Renuka from Riti Fashions. A very pleasant person to work with and who understands your needs and requirements. Has a lot of inventory to choose from and prompt in delivering any alterations. Overall a high end collection and very upto date with the latest trends. Have had very good experience.

    This business does deserve all the star it has today. I had my Baby shower coming up and wanted to wear an indian attire for the occasion but I decided get a new one pretty late..just 2 dyas before the event. But I got my dress stiched on time even though the owner had multiple fashion shows lined up. She had one of her tailors get the garment ready as per my size whihc was comfortable to me.
    And on the final day i received galore of complimentsabout my dress(lehenga) from all my friends who had come to the Baby shower

    I found this place through yelp which'Yelp' sorted other good comments .
    The collection she has is really of great quality which you will get in india at only good branded/ standard places and so are the prices. She is a designer and has all the latest trends available. We had hard time choosing from the collection she had as it was ample and all were so great.

    I never write reviews on yelp but Renuka's above and beyond services complelled me to. I was invited to a wedding reception and of course i was looking for an outfit last minute. I came across Renukas boutique on yelp and decided to give it a try. She had a wide array of ready made pieces that were amazing. I picked one out with her help and she was able to make the necessary adjustments in three days or less given that i was doing it at the last minute! What blew my mind is when i called her the day before the wedding frustrated with trying to find the jewelry to match the outfit and asked her for suggestions on places to look. To my surprise, Renuka offered to loan me the pieces instead of me buying them just for that occassion! Now, thats what I call customer service! Renuka is talented and I plan on seeing her again for more casual wear or for any indian wedding invitations in my future!
    Truly grateful,

    I found this place on yelp while shopping for Indian blouses. Renuka is very honest and helpful. She tries her best to find something that is a perfect for you. She lets you try blouses/sarees and is not pushy. She also offers good discounts for her long term customers. Overall I had very good experience and I'll definitely be going back for shopping to Riiti Fashions.

    I had a chance to shop at Ritti Fashions when I so badly needed a good designer blouse for an event in the very last minute. I could not be happier to have found it online and the wide selections that I could choose from - Renuka was an awesome person to meet and was very kind, was willing to do minor alteration within a very tight time frame. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience and would definitely see myself going back, and/or refer friends to this place. Thanks very much, Renuka. You made my day and I couldn't be happier.

    I wanted to get an elegant dress that I could wear for Indian as well as casual occasions. Renuka understood what I really needed and suggested what would look good and trendy. I needed my dress at very short notice and she got it done well before time. I would highly recommend going to her if you want quality work on time.

    Beautiful selection and amazing service! Needed a Sari altered for a wedding last minute and found this amazing place.

    I am so thankful that I found Renuka to help me design outfits for my brothers wedding. She is creative, patient, and makes high quality pieces. My entire Indian family was very impressed by her work. Renuka was always accessible by email and text,  and made it easy for me to send photos of pieces I liked online. Shipping from India was seamless. Ladies, come here for your next event! She also has a boutique collection of saris, lenghas, and fancy blouses in her home. Would definitely recommend to everyone! Must visit!

    I went to Renuka for a professional sari draping for a wedding I was attending in the bay area, and was so glad that I did. Not only did she drape my sari beautifully, but she discreetly pinned it with safety pins in numerous places so that even after tripping over myself when standing up later in the day, nothing came undone. She even quickly stitched a hem back in place that was previously held together with a safety pin, and offered me to choose from a selection of decorative bindis to match my sari, and then sent me on my way with a pack of them for future occasions, all at no extra cost. Thank you!

    As Renuka is a designer, she's got an eye for style and quality.  Renuka was a life saver for me as I reached out to her only a few days before I had to fly out of country to attend an important wedding. She put all my fears at rest by having several, wonderful outfits pre-selected and ready for me to try on.  If I could purchase 10 sarees, I would have done so as they were all exquisite but I limited my purchases to just 3. She scores high marks in my book as she has that "customer first" posture.  She listens to your needs and works on delivering the product you desire. I am one happy customer and I plan to visit Renuka next time I have a need for classy, high quality, designer Indian outfits. Thank You, Renuka!

    Very nice collection and superb customer service. Renuka has a very good collection of casual and high end indian outfit suited for all occasions. Would definitely go back for my next special event.

    I found Renuka through my mom's friend's niece. She designs Indian clothing for special events like weddings -- including gagra cholis and salwars. I already had a gagra choli for my wedding, which I bought from India, but it was all misshapen and weird, and I didn't know what to do about it! Renuka, using the tailor she contracts with, fixed it for just under $200. She basically overhauled the whole thing, and it looked great.

  • *****

    This review is way overdue. I found about Renuka's home boutique through a recommendation. I was searching for wedding related outfits and was glad to have found Renuka! She is very talented from what I've seen with her work and her prices are appropriate for the pieces of elegance your getting. I had her design my sangeet outfit for my function and I couldn't have been more happier with what I received. Her home collection has some really great designs from sarees to wedding outfits. I highly recommend her for your Indian outfit needs! I've recommended her to my guests at the wedding who were in love with my outfit.!

    Looking for traditional Indian outfits or sarees with custom made designer blouses,Riiti Fashions it is.Renuka is very friendly and accommodate your request.I am a makeup artist in Bay Area and got an opportunity to work with her.She is very hardworking,creative and perfectionist.

  • *****

    Although I didn't purchase a new outfit from her (yet), Renuka's collection looked gorgeous, trendy and high quality.   I actually went to her to get alterations on a blouse I owned and get a new blouse stitched - both of which turned out to be cute, fashionable, and perfectly fitted!  I'll definitely return to check out her boutique collection and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for trendy fancy Indian clothes.

  • *****

    To be honest, I was a bit skeptical at first because lets be frank, her prices are not cheap at all.  I met Renuka by myself, without my mother in law (I'm not Indian btw), so I wasn't sure what to expect.  However, I knew what I wanted and other places weren't able to make them for me in the exact color and style I desired.  My mind quickly changed.  Renuka was easy to work with and she delivered what I wanted.  I love my teal sangeet lahenga and the sarees for my bridesmaids were spot on beautiful.  I will pay for getting exactly the style/quality/color that I want, and so for that, it made it all worth it.  Thanks Renuka!

    I was going to the SLAM concert and I needed something nice to wear.. I found this place on yelp, and I am so glad I did! This place is amazing! It has everything you need at reasonable prices! The service was excellent, the lady was super nice and helped me pick something out, she even gave me a discount! Definitely coming back here again and would recommend this place to everyone!

    I found this place on yelp to shop with my friend for saris and we both aren't Indian. This was my second sari and my friends first. This was a really great find! The owner was super helpful, patient with us and very sincere. She really wanted to help us find something that was a perfect fit for our individual tastes and she helped us try on all the saris. Everything was very beautiful and there was a wide range of prices. We didn't want to spend a lot considering we didn't have specific events in mind and it was helpful she was willing to give discounts. Overall, a really pleasant experience and I'll be back for more shopping whenever I have an event. haha

    This review is long overdue. So let's just get started.  Ok. I had 2 weeks till my wedding date and I needed a Dupatta for my indian themed wedding. I needed a custom made Dupatta which I was really crossing my fingers and hoping it was even possible. Renuka and I sat down and designed a beautiful diamond studded Dupatta. She was very detailed and hands on with choosing the perfect fabrics. This is GREAT customer service. I visited 4 other shops and the customer service was horrific. They were servicing other people who didn't even buy anything for what seemed like forever and when they asked me what I needed they just told me that they didn't have what I wanted they didn't even look through any of their merchandise to see if they had anything. Anyway, so finding Renuka was a miracle. She had my Dupatta custom made for me IN INDIA!!! It arrived after 1 week... AHEAD of schedule!!! Omg it was exaclty what she had designed. I loved her service so much that I decided to purchase a lenga suite as well. It was already % 50 off and out of my budget as a last minute add on but Renuka knew I really wanted it so she went out on a limb and allowed me to pay in 2 payments. WOW who does that! !!!!!!! No one!!! And I can't say enough about her tailor. She called her up and and smooth talked her into doing my lenga outfit within 4 days!!! I am a plus size girl n I can tell u that its hard enough getting the perfect fit, but Renukas tailor nailed it! It fit stunningly. Ok, i spent top dollar for top quality custom made merchandise and top quality customer service. And after my wedding Renuka called me up and asked how it went and was eager to see the pictures.  Her business in my mind surpasses all other boutiques in the bay area. I will forever be greatful to Renuka.

    Prices:

    Custom made Dupatta-$1,500
    Lenga outfit after % 50 off-$350
    Alterations $50

    Renuka was very helpful. She has a beautiful collection of dresses and gave me a discount on  my dress. She's a very nice and honest lady, she even gave me an accessory for my forehead for free. My friends liked my dress very much, it was elegant, different, and fun to wear.

  • *****

    The selection was amazing and the owner was incredibly helpful. She had prepared a variety of blouses for me to choose from and offered to sew any adjustments that might be necessary on the spot so that I could make it to the wedding we were attending. Fortunately, the blouse I chose was a perfect fit and truly made the sari a show stopper. I would love to return and try on more saris and blouses. Her selection is phenomenal and spans a wide price range. Just be forewarned that the navigation directions using google maps has a glitch and sends you to the wrong house even though the correct address is listed in yelp. I recommend using a different navigation or ask the owner for directions. This store is well worth the trip. It is truly a gem.

    Renuka she is amazing. She helped me when i had no option to stitch my brides saree outfit. With only a week for the wedding i was not able to find anyone with best quality and then i got to know about Renuka. She did it right on time for the wedding. Not only she stitched it to perfection, she gave options to make it more bridal.
    Can you believe all the conversation happened over phone? Yes, she is the best in the business. She has awesome collection of ethnic wear.

  • *****

    lets see.. when did it all start. I was getting married, and didn't want to trouble my aunts in India for blouses. I was on the hunt for a perfect tailor to get my blouses done! Jackpot!!! A friend told me about Renuka, and its now been three years and she is the only one I take all my Indian clothes too. Not only were my wedding items PERFECT, she continues to impress me with her creativity every time I go to her. She has a true vision for beauty when it comes to designing blouses and I am always surprised at how innovative she gets with the materials she is given. I constantly get compliments on my blouses and have turned many family members and friends into trying her.

    I highly recommend using Riiti Fashions! My only advice is that make sure you build in plenty of time before your event, since it does take some time to get the finished product.
