Dear
Jody,
I wanted to take a few minutes and thank you for being so wonderful to
me and for treating me like a princess. I've been a very large person all
my life - I've had low self esteem to go with it.
Since I met my husband and people like you and all the people in your company
I feel confident. Dressing has made a huge difference in the way I view
myself and in my confidence. I'm sorry I fought my husband for so long,
all he wanted was for me to look and feel good. He would say time after
time, what ever your size, dress well and live your life. How right he
is.
Thank you for being so kind and patient with me. I hope all the larger
size women in the world realize how dressing well really does change your
life. I feel so elated and satisfied about the wonderful new person inside
me that has emerged!
Have a terrific Christmas and may god bless you in the new year.
Sincerely,
The Kennedy family
Dear
Jody,
As an inexperienced internet shopper, I dreaded the complications of shopping
and placing my first order. I expected it to be impersonal and cold --
faceless and comfortless. Thank God I connected with MylesAhead and with
you.
Truthfully, my shopping adventure with you today was more personal and
far more fulfilling than than shopping at the very best department or specialty
stores. Your professionalism, attention to details, and patience were amazing.
I'll be a MylesAhead customor from this point forward.
You site is clearly among the most attractive and easy to use that I've
encountered (and I've tried to use many of them). The only thing that missing
is the availability of intimate apparel. I'm hopeful that this category
of clothing will be added to your offerings in the near future.
Thanks again for your help and personal attention. I look forward to receiving
my first order.
Sincerely,
J. D.

I LOVE IT!!
I would like to order four more blouses in the swatches that you sent me
You can email or call me to confirm the order...I just love my blouse,

Dear
Jody,
I must tell you how I praise the day I found "Myles Ahead"
As a petite, large size woman I always had difficulty finding the clothes
I really wanted! Fortunately, I was a nurse and I could hide in my uniform
most of the time. I shrunk from situations from which I would have to sit
on the dais or make a speech, suddenly, I found myself retired , very socially
active and to my great pride and joy the mother of a celebrity.
Thanks to you I have clothes to wear to all occasions. My clothes are chic,
colorful and well fitted. At long last I can shop in a pleasant atmosphere
with courtesy and the most helpful people. Most of all, Im so happy to
be seen on the arm of my son at galas and know Im really " looking good"
!

Dear
Jody,
I dreamed
I went dancing in a "Myles Ahead" dress. But Jody, that was no dream. A
few weeks ago we had a black tie Sunday afternoon wedding. Im sure other
women my size are just like me.... What will I wear, what fits? Well I
didn't have to worry at all. There in my closet was a two piece number
just calling out to me. You remember, we made the black dress long and
the jacket had cream lace on it. We decided I could dress it up or down.
I had a few other jackets made to go with the dress but hadn't had
the chance to wear it with the cream lace one yet.. Here was my chance
to wear it formal. My husband wore his tux and we really did go dancing.!!!
Jody,
there is such a need out there for clothing for the large size woman.
You are helping us; your clothes make us look and feel great! These
days when I look into my closet I never worry anymore about what to wear.
All my clothing doesn't always have to be in black . I can feel stylish
in denim, in a leopard print or in wearing lime green!
I look
forward when I come south every year to dropping in and seeing what's
"New" . I also appreciate the swatches you send me so I can order
clothes over the phone when Im not in Florida. I've come to rely on your
knowing my taste and calling me to let me know about an item
you think I would love.
These
days we are in Florida about twelve weeks of the year. we dress very casual
when there; My husband wears nothing but jeans; so I wear lots
of your denim outfits. We are at the seashore another twelve weeks.
I feel very in style while dining with friends wearing outfits in
cream or black and white ( a favorite combination of mine because gold
or silver jewelry or my black and white plastic costume jewelry goes with
it all.) small prints are another favorite of mine; I just like the way
they look.
This
past year has been very special for us. At the age of 49 (me) and
51 (him) my husband and I became grandparents. Not once; but twice;
5 months apart. Our two girls with some help from their spouses, gave us
two wonderful grandsons. There were so many happy events to go to so close
together. The briss, we made each baby a huge baby party and we named
the babies in Synagogue, seeing friends at parties; playing mah-jong
or just having lunch out I always have just the right dress to wear! I
find that the clothes I buy from you takes me from event to event to event
morning through night.
Thanks
again,
As
always,
M.S.

Dear
Jody,
I haven't
felt pretty for decades. I have hidden inside dull, blah clothes, staying
away from big parties and working at places that didn't need me to look
like anything special. Since I didn't feel like anything special, it worked
out fine. Then I found your web site and it changed my life. I know that
sounds so dramatic, but it really is true. Almost a year ago, I asked you
to make me a dress for an important wedding - my beautiful goddaughter
was getting married and I was to be an integral part of it. At first I
was trying to design my excuse for not going to her wedding, but then I
thought I'd give Myles Ahead a try. I saw a dress and jacket that I liked
on your web site and I really wanted to go to that wedding.
Well,
the dress and jacket came and I was thrilled. I felt like a girl again.
I felt pretty and looked forward to people seeing me! The dress and the
wedding were beautiful and I couldn't have been happier unless I could
find a new job since I hated the one I was at. So, I took my new jacket,
threw it over a black shell and slacks and went out for two job interviews.
Guess what!!! I got both jobs and chose the one I wanted! Now, I'm a spokesperson
for my agency. I meet high-powered people and "do lunch" with big shot
company presidents! Who would have thought?! So now here comes a fancy
black tie ball and I need another dress. There's no question - contact
Myles Ahead. I described the dress I wanted and in the fabric I wanted
and POOF!!! There it is, the perfect slinky dressy dress. It fits as if
you and I had hours of fitting time and it is hangs perfectly. Even my
mother - who is very picky about such things - can't say enough about the
quality of your work.
Now,
to say my whole life has changed because of a dress may be extreme and
I understand that it was time for my life to change, but it was getting
that first positive feeling from Myles Ahead that got me going. It gave
me the spark I needed to really believe in myself. You are a blessing in
my life. You truly have changed my perspective on being me! You've helped
me to like me more. Thanks, Jody. You make clothes and that might seem
mundane to you sometimes, but just know that you make dreams too. You go,
girl!
Sincerely,

Dear
Jody,
Feeling
beautiful and looking the part is very important to me. Recently I went
on a cruise and I called Jody about a month before the cruise and told
her I needed clothes for this trip. Jody sent me gorgeous outfits, a lot
of mix and match. Wonderful fabrics! Gorgeous designs! Mind bogglingly
beautiful! When I got the packages from Jody I didn't even try on most
of the clothes (23 pieces in all). I just put them in my suitcase being
confident that Jody knows my size. Dressing was so easy this trip. All
I had to do was take an outfit out, put it on and leave the cabin. Unknown
to me there were a lot of women watching what I was wearing. The second
day of the cruise I had a woman come up to me and tell me how beautiful
I was and how she loved my clothes! She even requested to feel the material!
Well, I love clothes and during this cruise I changed my outfits very frequently.
Thanks to Jody I had everything I needed for the cruise, island hopping,
lunch, high tea and formal dinners. My husband loved my outfits and even
he was amazed at the number of people who told me about my clothes. It
was such a wonderful feeling to know that I looked beautiful and that people
were watching what I was wearing and were jealous.
One
particular night at the captain's dinner, my husband and I were asked to
join the captain for dinner. This was a high honor. Everyone was already
seated and then the captain and my husband and I were the last ones to
enter. As we entered the room I looked up and I saw a few women in the
back stand up and look at us. I mentioned this to my husband and he said
that the women were waiting to see the captain. I said okay and forgot
about the incident. Later on during dinner I saw these same women coming
up to our table and thinking that they were headed to the captain, I continued
eating. To my surprise they came to see me! These women complemented my
gown and asked if I custom made my clothes. Flattered I told them I purchased
all my clothes from Myles Ahead and they were shocked that I just ordered
these beautiful clothes and that they fit me so perfect. The quality of
the material astounded them. After they left the captain told me that that
was the first time that somebody at his table had come to compliment someone
besides himself. He then stated that he admired my dress and then the photographer
came and took pictures of the three of us. I was so thrilled.
I would
just like to tell everyone that is reading this that if you have never
tried Myles Ahead clothes you must! Get on the phone, call them and order
from the Internet. You will be one hundred percent pleased. Jody is wonderful.
She will personally help you with your size and purchase. You won't be
disappointed. Believe me, Myles Ahead makes me beautiful and I thank Jody
for her designs and for her caring to make all women look their best and
be beautiful, no matter what their dress size. I truly believe that if
you call Myles Ahead you will never go to another store because no other
company can match Myles Ahead for their clothing.

Excerpt
from: "CARDSANDLETTERS" in "BBW Magazine"
"What's
in a store"
I have
been reading your magazine for as long as it has been published and I love
it! It has always made me feel that I am not the only large-size woman
on the planet. But......finding beautiful clothes, great styles and a wonderful
shop to purchase them in was not easy-until I found one in your wonderful
magazine. And the best part is, The store is in my area!
I am
talking about "Myles Ahead" in Tamarac, Florida. Jody Muchnick, the owner
and designer, is just wonderful. Not only does she have an entire store
to choose from, she will also design anything the customer wants.
How
wonderful not to dread getting dressed in the morning. Her styles and great
fabrics have put a perpetual smile on my face. Now people stop me and say,
"You look so pretty, where did you get that outfit?"
Thank
you, BBW for writing about "Myles Ahead". I will never stop reading your
wonderful magazine.

Dear
"Myles Ahead",
I just
received my most recent order and am as thrilled as ever with the clothes.
Everything fit perfectly and it was of the same fine quality and workmanship
that you always send. It is great to be able to order clothing and be able
to count on a great fit and superior quality order after order.
I am
a super-sized woman and in my area of the country it is almost impossible
to buy quality clothing in my size at any price. I was thrilled to be able
to find your company on the internet and be able to order clothing for
all occasions. I am a professional woman and your wide variety of clothing
is able to take me from the Board room to playing on the weekends. Your
variety of styles and fabrics enable me to buy clothing that mix and match
with each other, greatly extending the choices in my closet. I especially
appreciate your willingness to let me design my clothing by choosing the
style and fabric I want and having you custom make them to specifically
fit my personality and lifestyle. I receive compliments on your clothing
almost every time I wear your fashions.
On
the rare occasion when I have needed to exchange an item, "Myles Ahead"
has cheerfully exchanged the items assuring that I was completely happy
and satisfied. Please keep on creating great clothing in fashionable styles.
"Myles Ahead" has made me a satisfied customer and I intend to come back
for all my fashion needs in the future.
Sincerely,

Dear

you are a blessing to the market. I have been looking at your new web site
and the clothes are beautiful. You have got our votes as satisfied customers.
Keep up the good work!!!!!

Dear
Jody & Myles Ahead,
If
you ever want to know what it's like to feel like a million dollars, just
wear one of your wonderful creations!!! When I wear a blouse, or a dress
that I bought from you, I just feel so positive towards myself in knowing
that I look wonderful, even at 433 pounds! Even the clothes I bought 10
years ago still look great!! I would never, ever trade my Myles Ahead wardrobe
for anything.
Keep
up the GREAT work......
