Great

Great people, very organized, oversaw every step of the way. I did not give it 5 stars because I expected more “secret” shops and I do not sew. It was primarily objects related to sewing and the shops were ones I was aware of by being a garment district shopper anyway. French General women were very helpful and overall a fun time.

Great day learning about different shops I never knew existed (for the public). Great to go to stores that sell to anyone, not just resellers.
