Shirazi

This store is not at this location. It should no longer be listed. I came quite a ways to check it out snd there’s a dance/​exercise studio at this address.

Pretty clothes, w/​a special flair about them; I love both the eco friendly fabric clothes and that there are colorful, statement pieces here, along w/​cool jewelry, scarves and other accessories. My favorite piece I got from there are black pants w/​ruffly bottoms — I get lots of compliments when I wear them and I love that they are black pants, but not boring and very very comfortable
!
I’ve found the service friendly but not pushy, which is perfect for me!
Not cheap like H&M, but much more unique and interesting for sure, and
lots of natural fabrics which I love!

Shirazi Boutique…
I love this boutique! So much that I now work there. August Special we’ll take 25% OFF any one purchase. Just mention you saw us on FACEBOOK, or click to LIKE! Now thru AUG. 31^st.

No problems with giving credit for a gift/​shirt received. I left with very unique earrings. Real butterfly wings encased. I bit spendy but the one-​of-​a kind find, was worth-​it. The store specializes in feminine clothing and accessories! Local artists/​vendors are featured here as well.

I come here when I’m looking for a one-​of-​a-​kind piece. Admittedly I don’t always find something I like/​that fits (probably a good thing), but when I do – it is always fabulous.
My favorite and most complimented dresses come from Shirazi. The pieces are unique, colorful and figure flattering (I’m always looking for good waist definition), while also being timeless and stylish. Yes, it runs a little expensive, but it is worth it.
The staff is polite and attentive. Never had any complaints.

How funny to see this place reviewed. I am going to weigh in here as well. I have shopped here from time to time for years. Very often when I shopped regularly at Whole Foods– that’s when a Seattle full time teacher paycheck was mine.
it is neat, pretty, well-​organized. The problem comes with fitting. Nothing ever fit!
The clothes are gorgeous. Most are very small sizes. The jewelery is divine but also very expensive. Staff are variable in their work — actually theuy don’t seem to work much. Rather vapid.

Definitely not my style… but I can see how some women might love it. It’s much larger than your regular neighborhood boutique, very colorful, pretty, clean, organized… a first-​impression eye candy. As for the clothes, the store carries 2 styles:
— green/​recyclable/​sustainable [runs off to retch]
— gypsy/​hippie/​free spirit (think light, long, flowy skirts and skimpy tops in very colorful fabrics)
The «green» stuff if too expensive for my taste. And not pretty. ‘Nuff said.
The gypsy dresses are actually very pretty and feminine. It’s what you’d expect to see the women wearing at the Fremont Sunday flea market. I’d love to release my cute inner hippie, every once in a while, by wearing one of those. Problem is, most dresses that were on the rack yesterday had the exact same shape on the top: spaghetti sleeves, with a triangle of fabric covering each breast. Sure, it looks adorable… if you have TINY breasts that don’t require a bra and will manage to get covered. What about the rest of us? Apparently, our inner gypsies will stay locked in with their tarots and crystal balls, wherever they are.
It couldn’t possibly hurt to try some of the dresses on (they were on sale too, for around $ 30), and try I did. Then I left the fitting room and gave the dresses to the sales girl, saying that they didn’t work out, and I thanked you for her help (not that she had helped me any, but I was polite). She stared daggers at me, obviously pissed that I wasn’t going to buy anything, and didn’t tell me a single word of goodbye. What the hell? That’s NOT the best way to make a customer feel at ease in your store, you know. Or to want to return, for that matter. (I almost gave it 2 stars for that, but it wouldn’t be fair to the store owner.)

I like to come in here now and then because the colors and fabrics are so pretty. The sizes are a little wonky sometimes, I tried on a Large top that was too big in the bust while cutting off circulation to my upper arms, yikes! However I have also found some great gifts here. They have a markdown rack towards the back where you can find some great, interesting pieces for a good price.
The staff here are really nice — they get an extra star! I bought a pretty wrap that had been on display in the front and they took the extra time to steam out all the wrinkles. Purchases are always wrapped up nicely in really pretty paper bags.

Sometimes this place has really cute stuff. Sometimes they have nothing that interests me… More often than not, I leave without wanting to buy anything, BUT I have like 10 items from them in my closet, and 7 of them are my favorite items. When they have something good, it’s very good.

I’ve visited Shirazi twice now. Glad I waited to write the review until this last time, because I struck out the first time and didn’t find what I wanted. But visit number two netted 2 sweat/​lounge suits, both made of very comfortable bamboo-​blend fabrics. Also bought a bamboo fabric shirt and another pair of pants. All are easy to launder, hang dry and look great.
You do have to be willing to paw through the racks and risk finding the perfect item but not in the right size. Some of their items, as someone else said, are «fake ethnic», which makes some garments tacky and overly polyester/​synthetic.
In addition to many clothes, they have jewelry and purses a-​plenty. All are moderately priced. Nothing is a fantastic deal, but things are not as expensive a big department stores pre-​sale pricing.
The saleswoman was wacky… didn’t greet me at first, then wanted to show me an article in the magazine she was reading. Coo coo!

At first glance, Shirazi looks like Stevie Nicks’ closet, but then you look closer and realize that the sweaters are sumptiously gorgeous and if you could just find the right pair of black pants to wear under that oriental velvet burnout wrap you’d never hear the end of the compliments. Their items are really beautiful and quite pricey, but one piece here and there wouldn’t kill ya and would really make your wardrobe.
I said to the sales lady, «Oh these are all the clothes I feel like I should wear, but never do.» Yes, they’re feminine and frilly and lacy and layery, and I certainly don’t need a whole closet full of them but one or two would make a BIG difference.
When I need a special touch, I’m heading back to Shirazi.

I really don’t like the clothing here. I feel like it’s sort of «fake» ethnic which bothers me for whatever reason. Oh well. It also doesn’t carry small enough sizes for me really.

Shirazi first caught my eye because of their very feminine flair: beautiful long skirts and tops that have an ethnic and trendy flair but stand out in their originality. I’d say the styles will appeal most strongly to mature female shoppers, but I love to look there because I love long skirts and bohemian/​vintage-​esque clothing and Shirazi is really one of the only places I’ve been able to find those styles. They always have lovely formal dresses as well as dress-​up casual pieces. The clothes are definitely on the fancier side of things but can dress up or down depending on what you pair them with. The colors and fabrics are quite varied but all feminine – soft, alluring, and classy. As a bonus they have some very nice jewelry, scarves, hats, sarongs, and hand bags. And the Crossroads Mall store has some authentic bellydancing gear as well. The prices are high but not overly expensive for the quality and uniqueness of the clothes. I think Shirazi is definitely the best place to shop for women who have an orginal flair and want to show it.

Lucious fabrics, eye-​catching colors, accessories to jazz up any wardrobe! Oh, sistah. Have you come to the right place or what? Of course, its always easier to find something that fits if you’re a size 6 but there is enough variety for those of us who are… ahem…big boned.
The sales rack is a gold mine of bargains but they disappear quick. I found some washable silk slacks that fit well and felt like a dream to wear — for only $ 15.00! Can’t beat that.
