Hi Cissy,

The dress arrived Monday! I absolutely love it. It's beautiful! I really like how the skirt flows and the look of the beautiful rose pattern against the pink satin. I'll definitely shop here again in the future! Thanks so much!

Hello Cissy,

"I have had 3 custom gowns made by Aida. The first one really impressed me; I gave them my measurements and the gown fit very well right out of the box. I always receive many compliments on my gowns from the other competitors and other friends who see the photos from our competitions are awed."

I just wanted you both to know that my order arrived today and how very pleased I am with my new ballgown! It fits perfectly and I love the colors! Thank you also for changing the floats for me - that was just what I wanted! I can't wait to try it out on the dance floor.

This to let you know that the dance dress and extra fabric arrived yesterday! I am very pleased with the prompt delivery. I am very satisfied with the dress and very happy with the way it fits. I would have preferred it a little longer but I will know how to measure for length better next time. My instructor is happy with the length so all is ok. It was very nice working with you, Steve, and I will be sure to look at the Aida website the next time I am looking for a dance dress.

Yours truly,

Hi Cissy,

The 4 layers cut fringe pants set just receive today. It's so beautiful and fit. Thank you! Everyone in the dancing party told me that I looked so elegant in my lovely yellow fringe dress. Thanks for your suggestion to try the yellow instead of red, because it's the first time to wear the dress in yellow and I look great! Thanks again and have a nice weekend!

Hi Cissy,

Thank you again for getting this dress to me in time for a showcase performance in February. I got many compliments about the style and color. I was very happy with the fit, quality and price. Here is a picture of me in the dress with my dance instructor. I enjoy looking at all the different styles you have to offer for ballroom dancing and will definitely recommend your website to others!

Hi Cissy:

I want to thank you so much for your beautiful collection of Ballroom Clothes. Whenever I place an order I receive it within a few days.

I recently had a dancing weekend in the Poconos where I performed a Samba. The black ruffled skirt was perfect. The practice pants with the flared bottoms are so comfortable for ease of movement they are my favorite.

I also want to thank you for the help you gave me when I needed a dress mailed right away for the weekend, you were a life saver.

The gold and black dress with the fringes on the bottom is absolutely beautiful. Fits perfectly and looks gorgeous.

I can assure you I will be buying all my dance wear from you. You are great.

Dear Cissy,

Thank you very much for the great dance costume (SD04) you provided for me. The fit was good, and it arrived in time-a couple of days before the show.

I participated in an in-studio dance show (I danced cha-cha) and the skirt and top were perfect for this kind of occasion. I appreciated having so many choices from the "Show/Cocktail Dress" area on your website. I thought the workmanship was great and your prices are reasonable. Thanks again!!/p>

"This was a very fast East Coast Swing to The Eagles song "Get Over It", and the skirt moved around my legs and hips perfectly throughout the quick movements of my instructor's choreography. I loved dancing in it and got loads of compliments. Thanks to Aida Dancewear's recommendation. "

This outfit is stunning! I purchased it for my first showcase and I don't know what got more applause...my rumba or my outfit! Aida Dancewear is a perfect fit for me...style, value, great workmanship and the clothes dance right along with the music.

I would like for you to know how wonderful it was to work with you and your knowledgeable staff and to compliment you on both the perfect fit and the quality of the items you custom made for me.

The wonderful "miracle workers" and the concerned professionals at Aida Dancewear solved all the problems for a beginner competitor like me. I have never attempted to buy clothes of any kind online but now I know I can trust Aida and their staff. Not only did they take their valuable time to discuss exactly what the styles meant and which ones applied to my particular dance routines but also made recommendations that worked out perfect. On top of all this, the prices were extremely reasonable for custom work!! After I received my items (in record time I might add) and modeled them for my dancing instructor, I received numerous compliments on the perfect fit of everything without having to make any additional alterations………….well I just wanted everyone at Aida Dancewear to accept my most sincere "Thanks A Whole Bunch".

I will purchase ALL of my future dancing needs from Aida.

Thanks for the two new rhythm dresses, Cissy. Once again, as a year ago with the smooth gown, I am very pleased with the quality of the gowns for such a reasonable price. I can't wait to wear one or the other to my next comp and get all those beads and flounces swishing!

Dear Cissy,

I wish to thank you for my wonderful ballgown. Your expert guidance enabled me to pick out the style that suited me best and when it arrived, lo and behold, it fit like a glove! The quality of the workmanship far exceeded my expectations, and in the end, all of my anxieties and apprehensions were for naught. I cannot help but feel it boosted my confidence and enabled me perform well on the dance floor. I will send you a picture as soon as I have one.

I look forward to working with you again. Thank you so very much.

Sincerely,

Dear Cissy,

I ordered a pair of men's Latin pants and shoes from you a few weeks ago, and I must say, your service and the products were excellent (I had a size problem, and you helped me to arrange for an exchange, which was very nice of you).

Hello,

I was too hasty, the packet was arrived, when I went home after work.

Thank you very much! Shoes are so, so beautiful! I think all other girls,

who didn't order, will be very envy about our new shoes... :)

Have a nice summer!

Thanks for your patience and understanding. My group really enjoyed our new performance outfits, and some have used it on our regular dinner dance. I for sure really enjoyed my skirts (it make me feel like dancing!!), and have also received a lot of compliments.

I would like to continue on having a good friendly and business relationship with you, as you are one of our best source.

Thanks again,

Just wanted to tell you that the Dolly top and skirt that I ordered is wonderful! It fits perfectly. This is the second order I've placed with Aida Dancewear and am very pleased. Thanks

Cissy,

Thank you so much for such prompt service and such a quality skirt. I am very pleased. I will definitely order from you again and tell my friends about your website. It's awesome!

Cissy, I got the pants today. As before, they are really nice, and such a great price. I recently spent $300 for a pair of Jordy pants, and I think your pants are equally nice.

I'm interested in getting a few more pairs of Latin pants to practice in. Nothing fancy, the lower priced pants will do. Do you offer any discounts when buying more than one or two pairs?

Thanks.
Tom

As a beginner, we were asked by our instructor if we would be part of a showcase coming up in six months. We accepted the challenge and, at the time I write this, we are a week away from our performance. After much hunting, we came across your business. We spoke and you were very helpful as you helped me with the size and style of a latin shirt. It arrived in just a few days since it was in stock and I couldn't be happier with it. It fits perfectly and my wife says that I actually look skinny in it (something that couldn't be said of me for some time now!) The quality is very fine and our dance instructor was impressed so I gave her your information to pass on to others in my same situation.

Thanks

The shirt was a huge success, there was not another shirt that even came close to it. I must have gotten a compliment from allmost every person there. I gave many dancers your web address so I'm sure they will be contacting you. I can't thank you enough for such a great looking shirt. We did quite well dancing and even got Top Couple in associate bronze, I think the shirt had a lot to do with it. Now I need a pair of pant's to go with my shirt, I'll be checking the web site soon to order. Didn't get any cleaning or care instruction's with shirt, please e-mail me with instruction's. Also didn't receive the latin shirt for signing up, when we ordered my shirt. As soon as we get the picture's back I will be forwarding some to you if you would like. Thank's again and keep me in mind if you come up with any special design's for new shirt's.

Customer forever,

Just received my shirt from the mail, can't believe how perfect it fits and how great it looks. We are getting ready to go to a dance lesson and its killing me not to wear it. I hope I do it justice by wearing it at competition, will send you pictures. I can't thank you enough for the excellent job you did creating this beautiful shirt for me to wear. Thanks for getting it here so quick also. Will tell all the other dancers about you.

Thanks again

Hi Cissy,

I got the outfit yesterday in the mail. Just in time for the dance weekend. Thanks a million. Its fabulous burgundy red and fits perfectly. I may purchased other outfits from you later again. I'll be recommending to my other dance friends here in Ireland. The service was excellent and prompt.

Thanks Again,

Denise

Hi Cissy

I have received my pants and top today and they are fabulous, they couldn't fit better. I can't tell you how please I am with them. Am saving up to buy more from you now!!

I have placed several orders with Aida Dancewear, and I've been extremely happy with both the service and the products. The ballgowns and Latin costumes are exquisite. I always receive compliments when I wear them, and they feel just as good as they look. I have also had great success with the practice wear that I've ordered. The sizing charts are accurate, and the custom size orders arrive in perfect proportions. All my orders arrive in a timely manner, and Cissy keeps in touch with me to let me know the progress of my custom pieces. Aida provides excellent value and quality products.

Thanks, Cissy!

Hi Cissy:

I received my new shoes today and practiced in then all night! Thank you so much for your prompt shipment. I love them!

This is a great tailor for men's ballroom pants and Latin pants. The material is light weight, durable, hand washable, and dry ready to wear. They are cool and breathe on a hot night of dancing. The ballroom pants have a satin stripe down the outer leg, like a tux-type pant. The Latin pants have a built in elastic band at the waist that allows a great fit and no belt. They are a super design by a fabulous costume designer. They hug the hips beautifully. The Latin pants have an elastic stirrup at the foot that keeps a great line for extended leg moves. But...best of all they are reasonably priced for what I have spent on other designer ballroom pants and even better they can be hand washed and don't require dry cleaning!!! I have purchased 4 items from Cissy and I recommend her designs without hesitation. I returned a shirt that did not fit and she refunded the cost immediately. Women, buy for your dancing men, and men buy for yourself. I wear a 34 waist in men's (Paul Dionne) dress slacks, but I find a 36 waist size in her ballroom pant is a perfect fit. OK, so I use to be a 32, but I aint 20 years old anymore!!! Please steer some purchases her way.

Hi Cissy

I would just like to say how pleased my friends and I are with the skirts and shoes we have purchased from you over the last year. Your service and the quality of the goods we've ordered, are second to none! The shoes are not only stylish, but superbly comfortable and the skirts 'dance' beautifully!

We also like the fact that they can be made in any colour and style of our own choice. You wouldn't believe how many compliments we get from people at the different venues we attend.

My husband says of the shoes you made for him, "It's like dancing in gloves"

So thanks again to Cissy and all at Aida.

Best regardss

Hello, my name is Avan and this email is to let your company know how pleased I was with your product and service. I was a very bad girl who waited until the last minute before looking for something to wear for a performance. I found your website and I loved just about everything I saw. Unfortunately when I found out that it would take three weeks for me to receive my choice, I was planning on canceling the order. Thanks to Cissy Lee my problems were solved. Cissy worked with me personally to help me choose something that was in stock so that she could send it to me right away. The skirt I chose and the top Cissy suggested were great! My performance went very well and I received many compliments on my clothing. The quality of the clothing was great and I look forward to ordering more. I loved my skirt so much I had Cissy order another in a different color.

Thanks Cissy and Aida Dancewear!

Sincerely, a very satisfied customer!

Cissy:

I love, love, love my beautiful new dancing shoes!! You were right, the 2 inch heel looks fantastic. They are the most comfortable dance shoes my feet have ever worn. I wanted to take this time to thank you so much for helping me make such an important decision. I am sure I will get lots of compliments and questions about where I purchased my shoes. I will give you a very good recommendation to all my ballroom dancing friends.

Sincerely,

Cissy,

Hello! This is a quick note to say "thank you" for 3 beautiful skirts!!! I got home from work yesterday and they were waiting in the mail for me. I just love them. I knew from the start they were going to be just what I wanted and they are. I love the fabric and design so much. You are incredibly talented. I am so lucky. I can not wait to show them to my friends at the dance studio. I know they will love them as well.

I just wanted to write and let you know I received my skirts and how much I love them.

Thank you and I will write again soon.

This is Monica. I had ordered a pair of your Latin Aida dance shoe. I just received them yesterday and they fit great! They're so comfy and easy to strap on and off.
I will definetley recommend your site to my other salsera freinds, and will continue to order from your site.

Thanks again Cissy.

I wanted to let you know that my beautifil skirts arrived yesterday and once again I am very pleased. Thank you for your high quality and great service.

Cissy,

Well, we did it! We performed our formation "Tango" at two parties and we did well -- according to the audience. But most of all, they all praised our Bianca skirts (which of course I ordered from you). The skirts outperformed us, I think -- they're beautiful. I especially like how light they are -- they swirl and sway with every little move. They did make us look good at the dance floor.

From all of us, thank you.

Dear Cissy,

Last night I wore the 3 layer ruffle top I purchased from Aida to a dance party. I just had to write and let you know how much I love it. For the first time I was able to wear a gorgeous sleeveless top that covered me completely with one of my regular bras. This is such an issue for well-endowed woman like me. I felt so beautiful and comfortable at the same time. I was able to dance to my heart's content completely care free,

Thank you so much,

Helen

Wow Cissy, they've arrived from Hong Kong and they're gorgeous, and they fit perfectly!!!! I am going to tell everyone about your site now, and I might very well be back for some other dance shoes.

Thanks very much Cissy, and I'm sure I will be back very shortly to spend some more pocket money!

Thank you again,
