With a critical customer presentation in New York ahead of me, I needed the right attire to ensure a successful event. Alan's advice, diligent efforts, and impeccable taste resulted in the perfect suit for the occasion. He gracefully turned a stressful situation into a confidence building experience. I highly recommend his store and his services.

I lost about 65 pounds and had one old suit that no longer fit. I looked for a suit at Brooks Brothers, Joseph Banks, and several other men's clothing retailers. I noticed that they were all selling the same products. I wanted a nicer suit that would fit most occasions -- a suit that was modern and comfortable. I searched locally and found Gentlemen's Gallery Principessa in downtown Asheville. Allen, the owner, was incredibly helpful, friendly, and funny. He showed me my options, made some measurements, and had the suit ready for me to try on in three days. Some quick final alterations and I had my suit. The quality is outstanding - comfortable, perfect fit, and a modern classic. I could not be more pleased with my experience. Allen is a pro, and Asheville is lucky to have him and his wonderful business, Gentlemen's Gallery Principessa.

On a business trip to Asheville and lo and behold, I forgot dress socks. Google told me I was close to this shop & I'm glad I was. Alan was a great host & huge help in getting me situated in an embarrassing moment. I wish I could take his shop back to Chattanooga with me although there would be a likely revolt in Asheville. If you are in the market to look your best in Asheville, this is where you should start.

I came to Alan looking for a suit for a big New Year's Eve party and he was fantastic. Unfortunately, I came to him way too late so there wasn't enough time to get my suit custom made before the party, but he gave me every recommendation he could think of to help me out (even other suit makers!). He truly wants those who come to him to have the best experience getting a suit (or any other clothing), whether or not the clothes are even from him. He cares about those who come to his store and is never trying to sell you on anything. After I luckily found a suit in time, I came back to him to get fitted for a shirt and got a pocket square, belt, and bowtie in the process. He was excited for me when he saw that I had everything I needed and rushed ordered any alterations I needed. I highly recommend going to see Alan for any suit or clothing needs. He makes his interactions personal and custom. He has a great selection of imported Italian clothing (the jackets are the best). Truly selfless and just wants to see everyone happy. Will 100% go back to him when I'm in Asheville next.

I was in the process of purchasing a suit for a wedding and needed measurements. I've never gone through the process and Alan helped me out. I was purchasing the suit through another company, but as kind as Alan was, he took all the measurements I needed. He even contacted the store directly to clarify exactly what they needed. Here I am, walking into a shop with zero intention of purchasing an item. Alan could not have been more courteous and helpful and kind. I now have the suit, and am going to bring it to him before the wedding to make any necessary adjustments.

I have been shopping all my life in different stores, can not say that perhaps all were not quality product, then about 5 years ago I discover Gentlemen's Gallery, I simply walked in, Met Alan he looked at me, asked a few simple questions, then he went to back of his shop and introduced me to may choices that would fit my body type and my personality. I was amazed by his talents and choices that are being created all over the world. I decided with a few pieces, thought I am going to take them home that day, NO could not, he tailored each piece to match exactly to fit me and week later was delivered on my door step perfectly fit. Now when I go to my closet to pick something to wear, my eyes always goes first to those I have purchased from Alan, have such a great emotion about them. I am excited this weekend going to see him to get blue jeans that is made in Germany and he is going to make me a Tuxedo for my daughter's wedding. You know what they say? what is more truth than truth, is a story.

Alan, the owner is super. Great locally owned clothing boutique for women and men.
