Evelyns work for my wedding in Sept was terrible. Hiring her was such a mistake. The whole experience was horrible and extremely frustrating! Her work and customer service were completely lacking and no where near worth the $2,000+ spent. She assured me, when I initially came in and placed my order, there was more than enough time to make the 11 adult and 3 child outfits for my bridal party. I was skeptical, but she ASSURED ME she would have them done and they would be of quality. Evelyn lied to get paid!She rushed to finish the order and she fell far short of what she promised to deliver. Evelyn provides work that is at best 50% accurate and claims it is 80-90%. Pockets were uneven, seams noticeably uncentered, buttons popped off when you simply try to button them, no ones outfit fit appropriately despite the fact she was provided measurements and did personal fittings. Overall, her work was ridiculously shabby and her level of unprofessionalism was so extreme that anyone paying for service would consider it blatant disrespect and cancel their order. So soooo many times I wish I could have canceled and found someone else.Rather than hiring help to complete the project (which she said she had), she greedily kept all the money we paid and tried to do the entire order alone. Consequently, we were made to suffer for her inability to meet deadlines she set or conduct fittings and appointments in a timely manner. I was so disappointed and felt so regretful with my choice to hire Evelyn being that my bridal party spent their own money for their garments (which Evelyn at one point said, Thats not a lot of money, to imply we should be accepting of her faulty work and lack of professionalism considering what we are spending. When is it EVER acceptable for a business to presume to know what a lot of money is for its customers?) Finally, the day before my wedding, she had the audacity to demand $300 more than agreed to in our signed contract with no ryhme, reason, or basis.Evelyn misrepresented her abilities, gave an unrealistic time frame for completion, never stuck to her word, and will blame the client for her failures as a seamstress/professional until she is blue in the face. I have never been so mishandled and disrespected as a customer or client in my life.HIRE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
Great African attire. Modern attire with accents of African dress. Amazing colors!!! This not only a retail store but an experience. Take tour and speak with the owner and she will enlighten you of all the history and culture embedded in her art. I had two outfits custom made and the experience was awesome. She custom fitted me from head to toe. Additionally, this is an excellent place to find Greek Fraternity and Historically Black College and University (HBCU) paraphernalia. You will not be disappointed.
Love shopping from this store. Ms. Evelyn has created beautiful attire for me and my son. This is also my go to place to purchase Shea butter.
Terrible customer service and product isn’t worth the price. Take whatever you were going to spend and light it on fire...you will get more enjoyment than dealing with Evelyn Creation.
It was a great a experience sharing with you guys the poem my daughter resided at her school. She did amazing! Thanks to your beautiful gesture she felt and feels like a queen. The dress, the earrings, bracelet and necklace looked fantastic on her. Thank you may you stay blessed! God bless!!
Made a special order two months ahead of event, they fell way short of my expectations. Workmanship was extremely poor, the final product was poor, and timely delivery wasn’t met. Buyer Beware, shop around, I’ll definitely won’t bring my business to them again. Yes, you did do work for my bride and me! How quick you forget just like the short fallings of your work!
Okay. I must share this. I have a very special Kwanzaa gathering this coming Saturday. My Kinara was pretty worn and it broke on me a few days ago. I was looking for Kinaras everywhere and they were all sold out. Evelyn Creation was selling a beautiful Kinara on Etsy. I reached out on Wednesday 12/23 to see if I could purchase the Kinara and get it by Saturday (12/26). With Christmas Eve and Christmas in between, I was not very hopeful that she could assist me. She delivered excellent customer service, product status updates, kept me calm with her demeanor and confidence and delivered a beautiful Kinara that arrived on Thursday (12/24)! I highly recommend this vendor and will definitely make more purchases.
Evelyn wasnt referred to me by a friend. As soon as I saw her website, I was hooked. Since were going to be wearing masks for sometime, we may as well look good. Evelyns designs are what you,ll want. Beautiful designs, great fabrics and reasonably priced. I highly recommend her !!!!
Evelyn is always happy, inspirational & very friendly!! She has a nice variety & is always ready to drop what shes doing & make something special for you!!
Great Custom Service. She really cares about her customers. I will be back.
Amazing Clothing, Jewelry and all things Diaspora!Cant wait to come back because the inventory is very impressive. Having traveled most of the U.S. and Senegal once, Ive never seen a womens and mens boutique side by side with art, cosmetics, clothing and memorabilia of this high quality. Evelyn and her staff also cater to custom sizes & layaway option.
Evelyn Creations is a must visit. The clothing and accessories are GORGEOUS! Evelyn is very personable. She offers great suggestions and will do in store alterations while you wait. You cannot ask for better customer service. Evelyn Creations supports our military. I highly recommend.
I ordered the face masks African print masks. I am very pleased with the product and they are good quality. I would definitely recommend! Thank you.
Friendly and helpful.
I needed two custom pair of pants made in two days while I was in town and Mrs Evelyn Benton the owner delivered more than I expected. She is a master seamstress, one that you can depend on for quality and a speedy outcome. She has always adhered to her African tradition, and sewing is her artistic expression.
I was having a hard time finding the right dress for my sisters African themed wedding. Having very little knowledge of this form of attire, Evelyns Creations filled in the gaps and gave me the assurance and confidence I needed in selecting the perfect outfit. Her associate was very knowledgeable and took his time assisting me in choosing the right print and cloth. Evelyn created a custom and signature piece for me within a couple of days. She also put my entire outfit together, within my budget, so that I didnt need to go anywhere else. The jewelry is authentic and I am walking away a very pleased customer. This is definitely the boutique that you would want to visit. The service was impeccable and I will definitely be back.
I browsed in Evelyns and then seriously looked for an outfit which I found. Evelyn altered in a few minutes. Great comfortable atmosphere.
This is my first time here to Ms. Evelyn shop, I was very impressed on how she handled herself her speed was unbelievable but I was there and yes she is a good hard working young lady. She done everything to make sure that you were satisfied with everything, if she had to do any changes she didnt hesitate. I was happy with her and most definitely I would recommend Mrs Evelyn to all my facebook friends as well as in my hometown. Keep up the good work and may God Bless and keep you. Hope to see u again
Evelyn’s Creation is a very nice hair salon. They offer a variety of services at a great price. Very friendly, and kind people to do your hair. Great quality service 10/10! Thank you!
If you have an upcoming event and you want to look absolutely amazing, than Evelyns creations is your one stop shop for all your needs. I was going on a cruise in less than a week, and the fabric that i ordered for my dress idea didnt come in until a few days before. and i started feeling hopeless. I contacted Evelyn to see if their was anything that she could do for me. She told me dont worry she got me, and she meant every word. This women is a magician behind that sewing machine, she made my dress practical right before my eyes and she did it so effortlessly and flawlessly. Within 3 days my dress was done. The night of my event i felt like Cinderella and Evelyn was my fairy God mother that made it all happen for me. The amount of complements i got that night was unreal. I felt like the Empress of the Sea on that cruise. I stole the night away, everyone was calling me royalty, and yes indeed i was the best dressed that night.
Great Variety, Great People. They not only have a large selection of African print clothing and jewelry but oils, shea butter and black soap as well. Authentic. Ms Evelyn custom made an order for me and I was extremely pleased.

Love her store good customer service great quality
Today I had the pleasure of locating this African clothing store and this made my spirit so happy!!! I have had a deep desire to find a store like this where I can try on different pieces that are unique and affordable. Evelyn is so sweet and humble and has soooo much variety!!! I had a blast modeling different pieces. Her store is definitely worth a visit and purchase. The great quality and her experience as a seamstress definitely shows through all her pieces. She has exceeded my expectations and I cant wait to purchase more!!! Also cant wait to show off the two dresses I purchased for babygirl and I!!!
Let me say.... a woman who puts all of her love and soul into making garments. My fiancé and I loved our African authentic outfits that were made for us. The service was quick, and we got to pick out our own fabric. We traveled from Ocala to Orlando to get professional work, and boy she came through❤️
I walked in and Evelyn was near the entrance creating a piece for one of her valued customers. Evelyn has a great collection of apparel.
Always a great place to shop with many outstanding selections great customer service.
Having my wedding reception dress made here. Quality work!
A great place to shop for any ethnic attire, incenses, oils, black soap etc. Ms Evelyn was a very professional and friendly. I recommend this shop to anyone looking a cultural shopping experience.
Store has a lot to offer! Ms Evelyn can literally get you into any garment that you wish. Very kind and patient staff. Will be shopping there again😀
One of the best stores you can shop. Black owned and supported. I will be back.
She was awesome! Helped me to find the perfect outfits and matching for me and my daugther! She even adjusted it, in less than 1/2 hr, so it could fit my daugther better! She was very friendly, helpful and professional! AMAZING STAFF & STORE FILLED WITH SOOOOOO MANY OPTIONS!
I purchased an African print skirt from here. Great service and very professional. I will definitely be back to purchase more items.
Went in looking for a head scarf, found what I was looking for. There are many beautiful selections and unique pieces.
First, I must ask for forgiveness. I should have posted this in May of 2018. Ms. Evelyn is a funominal seamstress. A one of a kind jewel. She made two exquisite Afrikan garments for my King and I. Just from ourVision of ideas we shared with her. Please my sisters and brothers, support this business. She is a blessing to our culture. Hotep.
This is a store where you could easily go broke. Mrs. Evelyn has the most unique selections of African clothes, jewelry, & African soaps.
Wonderful Afican ecentric Fashion, Scented oils, Beauty and skin care and much more💓💓💓💓
I love Evelyn and everything that she does. She has custom made three dress vest for me, and anytime I need an alteration she does it within 15-30 minutes with no appointment.
Beautiful authentic clothing. The owner was very friendly and helpful.
Great ethnic and Afrocentric garments, artifacts and paintings.
Great place to take care of your love one for all occasion.
I love this store. I honestly felt like I was walking through history. We need more black stores like this that represent black culture.
Beautiful handmade African attire clothes a little on the expensive side but I believe there is a layaway with her. You choose everything from fabric to color and size. She does a very professional consult with you.
Great place to shop! Mrs. Evelyn knows her crafts and is well stocked!
My experience at EVELYNS CREATION to include the ART EXPO at the WEST OAKS MALL has been and is without a doubt a wonderful experience. Included is a plethora of art,culture and fashion for ALL to experience and enjoy. I was specifically impressed with the inviting store atmosphere filled college and university items to include upon request uniquely designed and tailored items. The variety of KEMETIC/AFRICAN clothing was previously cut and made available for tailoring on the scene a subsequent appointment for a final fitting. I was also impressed with the variety of packaging options of the skincare products and the display of both the African black soap and African shea butter from West Africa to include a sampling area for both black soap and shea butter. Ultimately it is definitely a ONE STOPshopping oasis. DERRICK-AKA-V.I.P. 5 STARS-🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲*(RESPECT)*
Awe struck at the stunning attire.
My experience will always be remembered I had Ms Evelyne make my daughters prom dress she took her time and never rushed us always made sure my daughter was pleased and when everything was done OMG!!!!
