Anthony Polizzi Tailor Shop

I LOVE these ladies! I’ve worked with them several times. I waited entirely too long to get a dress for my sister-​in-​laws wedding (she had us bridesmaids pick our own dresses) and of COURSE it needed to be altered slightly. We’re talking 2 days before the wedding when I brought the dress to Marina on my lunch break and I picked it up after work that same day. They have the BEST prices. I guarantee you’ll be happy with them and their service.

I lost more weight than I expected after starting a new job. I tried on my bridesmaid dress for the wedding I was to be a part of and almost had a panic attack! It was way too big! Another girl in the wedding recommended this shop to me! So glad she did. With only 6 days until to the wedding, they guaranteed they’d be done in 5. The dress looked phenomenal! And what a great price. Cordial staff, patron area is small but functional (the sewing room is where the magic happens anyway). And they can pin the dress right in the changing room. You dont have to be put on display for the world to see.

I usually get all my tailoring done at Nordstrom because they are fast, convenient, and you get some free alterations if you have a card or buy said item from them. I thought I’d branch out and try something different so I came here based on the reviews+check-in offer.
I got a suit jacket the stomach let out across the waist for a wedding and a suit that was a little snug let out to be a little less snug (packed on a few pounds over the years). The tailor shop is quite small, like most tailoring operations, and they are fairly quick with getting things measured. The jacket I got let out still didn’t fit right… it’s quite old and there may have not been enough material. Had I gone to Nordstrom, I know they would have given it to me straight if it was going to work or not. I ended up just borrowing a friend’s jacket for the wedding I’m in who happened to have the exact one in the size I needed. I should have just done that in the first place but I thought I might be able to save my old jacket…
The other suit I got fitted, both pants and jacket, turned out alright. It was worth it for the 10% off w/​a Unilocal check-​in. I feel like I wasted my money on the other jacket but that might be partially my fault. I would come back if I only needed a simple hem but probably not for more complicated things or something that I need opinion/​guidance on.

Took my daughter’s prom dress here to get it hemmed. Nordstroms wanted $ 48 and two weeks to hem it; these ladies did it in a week for $ 36!
Ladies were friendly, the hem looked great, and it was ready when promised. Can’t ask for more than that. I will definitely use them again if I need something altered.
Note: my GPS told me this place was on the other side of the street and a half mile East of the actual location. It’s actually in a strip mall with China of Bombay and several other businesses so look for it!

This is the third or fourth tailor I’ve used since moving to the area a couple of years ago. Based on my three experiences with them, I doubt I will go anywhere else anytime soon. My alteration needs are pretty simple — I’m not an «off the rack» size so I get my pants hemmed. They have done about a half-​dozen pairs for me at this point and every one has been exactly right when I picked them up.
This may well be a four-​star place but I’m upgrading them to five based on their check-​in offer for Unilocalers.
I like their prices! I am alright with a one-​week turn-​around time. They do good work!

Can’t express enough how happy I am with this place. I live over a half hour away, but will still make the trip any time I need something altered. Jeans I get are always too long and they also need to be tapered. Every time I bring my Jeans here, they do a perfect job to get the fit exactly how I asked it to be.
Today, I went to the shop to have a suit and a couple pairs of jeans altered. I asked to have the suit back the same day, which they said they could accommodate. When I went to pick it up, they had everything done, even the jeans, which I was not expecting. They let out the Jacket and waste of the suit. Shortened and tapered the suit pants and two pairs of jeans. To me that was a lot of work to have done for a walk-​in all on the same day. I paid a little extra for it, but well worth it given I need the suit the next day. Everything came out perfectly. I will continue to drive out of my way to have my clothing altered at this shop.

I’ve used this shop on multiple occasions and always been pleased!
This shop is nestled in what might me my favorite plaza in Ballwin. You see, this plaza also has the laundromat and Chinese restaurant I’ve positively reviewed (Winchester Cleaners and China in Bombay, respectively), and this tailor shop is another great place to go for all your sowing/​alteration needs.
I’ve had pants that needed to be hemmed and they did it for a great price, and one time had a bad rip in my jeans that I thought would cost more to fix than would be worthwhile but which they took care of it for just a bit over five dollars!
The ladies I have spoken with anytime I come here are very nice, eager to help, and clearly knowledgeable in what they are doing. Should you have the need of a tailor for your clothes I would definitely recommend coming to Anthony Polizzi Tailor Shop. I know I’m glad I did, and if my pants could talk they would thank them too!

Had my wedding gown alterations done here. Excellent work! I have also had many pairs of pants altered in length and waist. They will shorten jeans and keep original bottom seams so you can’t tell they have been altered. Very affordable prices and my clothes look great!

Had several pairs of shorts sized down and the work was great, they fit and look just right, price was good seeing that I would have had to buy all new stuff, the three pairs were done in a few days. The staff were really friendly, will be back with more clothes soon.

Took a bridesmaid dress to be altered here (it was too small around the ribcage), and the alteration work was beautiful and well done. However, the bridesmaid dress was stained when the dress was returned to me. The stains are very noticeable on the skirt and will show up in pictures. I explained that I was unhappy with the stains as this dress was very expensive and must be worn to a wedding (with lots of pictures!) and they only offered to take off the cost of dry cleaning.

After moving out to West County, I had yet to find a new tailor. I found this place thanks to Unilocal reviews and decided to give it a try. I had purchased a winter coat on clearance that I «had to have», even though it was a size too small (probably no thanks to all the food reviews!). The main issues were:
1) Needed the side seams let out a bit so I could button the coat
2) Needed half of the sleeve seams let out so my upper arms weren’t so tight
None of these things are major changes for any tailor as long as there is some seam allowance, but I am always nervous when dealing with a new tailor and working on a relatively pricey item.
Thankfully, the jacket came out perfect and it’s ready to go for winter! The ladies at the shop are extremely polite, and I will def be back with other items.
FYI — pricing is reasonable and depends on material and stitching. A basic hem will only set you back $ 9.

The ladies who work here do great job! They took a suit that didn’t fit me everywhere on my body and made it the best-​fitting suit I have ever owned!
Communication on when to pick up after drop off was a bit mixed but I got my garments back before I needed them. Prices depend on what you get. In my case it cost me a pretty penny but if you need something small they should be reasonable!

This is where my sisters and my Mom took their dresses for alterations for my wedding this past April. The ladies working here were so nice, and they really knew their stuff. They asked questions as to how each wanted it to fit, look and move as they pinned the hemline.
Their customers were all very nice as well, and we struck up conversations with all of them. It was like being in a room full of friends, and yet we had all just met.
The dresses were ready fast. We could have had them done that day if we had gotten there earlier, as it was an hour and a half to close. They advertise as doing alterations and tailoring for men, women, children and dogs. Personally, I think the idea of dog clothing tailoring is adorable!
I highly recommend this tailor shop, as they are courteous, knowledgeable and their work is superb.
