Val's Tailor Shop & Alteration - Black tie dress alteration - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

See all

Great service. Very friendly and fun. Job was done quickly and correctly at a great price. We had a prom dress hemmed.

The seamstress reeked of marijuana. My dress I had altered was not as expected. Val's tailoring was a waste of time and money for me.

High quality of work and decent turnaround time. I had some pants hemmed but it's clear that this shop would be capable of far more complex alterations. Removed one star for cash only. read more

I have used Val's Tailoring for several dresses, pants, and jackets. Once she helped make an alteration on my husband's shooting vest. Excellent work and timely turnarounds read more

Incredibly fast and good pants hemming by Anna, and so reasonably priced. Will be back for more work.

Excellent service, quick finish, fair prices Ease of getting into business, no steps and road was clean read more

I actually didn't end up using Val to get my wedding dress tailored because she was very honest and told me that what I wanted done was not a good idea. She was very responsive to my texts, on time, and clearly not trying to rip anyone off, which I appreciate. Although I don't need my wedding dress altered; I would recommend her for any tailoring needs! read more

Val was great!!!! She helped me with a bridesmaid dress and completed it so quickly. She is fun to work with and cares about her customers

Top notch work. Easy to work with, very extremely accommodating in meeting a tight deadline, and very affordable!

I've been meaning to post this for awhile, because Anna is amazing. She did the alterations on my wedding gown a few months back and my dress was perfect. There were so many intricate elements to the dress that I was afraid alterations would a) be crazy expensive b) take forever or c) look awful. Not so with Anna! She did an amazing job in a reasonable time frame for a great price! She is honest and up front as well, when my husband brought his suit in to be altered, and it didn't really need alterations, she told him so. She didn't try to charge him or make changes when it wasn't necessary. Excellent customer service, reasonable prices, I highly recommend. read more

Anna is the absolute best tailor in STL!!! I've been going to her for about a year now and she is always professional, gives great recommendations, and her prices are more than fair. She's altered my jeans, yoga pants, dress slacks, pant suits, bridesmaid dress, and now stitching up a comforter that my puppy chewed and I can't part with it! Lol I'm short and petite framed which has me in her shop a lot. You will not be disappointed with this shop! read more

Val's is awesome! I took my bridesmaid's dress to them with very short notice. The alterations are perfect and done with time to spare! They also worked with me and my strange schedule to coordinate a time I could pick up the dress. Will definitely be going back, and HIGHLY recommend! read more

Anna got me in at the last minute when I was in need of a second opinion. She was a pleasure to work with, was accommodating, did a beautiful job, and charged me a fraction of what the other shop would have! Thanks Anna! read more

She knew exactly want I wanted done. She gave me options on when it would get done. Satisfied with the turn around. Very reasonable priced. Will use Val again. read more

Anna is simply the best. She's fun to be around, friendly, professional, and provides creative alterations solutions to make sure you are comfy and saving money. I've used her several times throughout the last year, including alterations for my wedding dress. She genuinely cares about making sure the alterations she makes will make the piece look amazing and consistently makes sure you will feel your best when the piece is done including making sure you will be comfortable moving around, dancing, etc. I will be a customer for life and have recommended her to several friends along the way. read more

I just picked up my first alteration from Val's and I have had a great experience from start to finish. Anna (owner) is very easy to communicate with and the work was very professionally done. Anna was very clear on price and there were no surprises. The dress was completed on time. read more

WOW! I couldn't rave more about Anna and her professionalism and speedy high quality work! I am in a wedding and waited too long to try on my dress. It was way too tight. Thank goodness I bought a larger skirt that she could switch out on the dress. Anna made it work at the last moment! I tried it on yesterday and it fits great! Plus it cost less than we originally discussed! I will never go anywhere else! read more

Excellent service! Super fast turn around for alterations to length and straps of my bridesmaid dress! Price was comparable to others in the area! read more

Love how professional and friendly they are. They were super quick with hemming my jeans and work was quality. Will be my go-to from here on out. read more

I took my son's coat here to have the zipper fixed and when I got it back I was horrified at what they had done. I will be taking the coat to another place to see if it can be salvaged before putting it in the back of the closet as the spare. I had to buy my son a whole new coat as a replacement. Details: My son stepped on a few teeth of the coat zipper and they were missing so his coat wouldn't stay zipped, so new zipper. On the left zipper there WAS a piece of fabric which went under the zipper and then over the top of it at the chin as a zipper stop. This was removed and somewhat sewed under the new right zipper with the zipper stop remaining inside of the coat, so not stopping the zipper! All seams were left open, loose threads everywhere, holes in sewing lines everywhere, and to top it off, the coat was ironed. It's a DO NOT IRON fabric that burns. So it burned. This business charged me $35 for this disaster. read more

Anna is the BEST! My wedding dress had to be altered quite a bit with the entire thing being lace and it looks PERFECT! Not only did she do an amazing job but she is so sweet/funny and overall awesome to work with! I've found my new tailor gal! Oh and she's a stylist as well ;) GO SEE HER!!!!!! read more

Anna has the magic touch when it comes to making clothing look amazing. Everything she's done for me (suit, sweaters, pants, shirts) just feels a step above when I get it back. It fits like it's made for me (which I guess now it is:) If you're looking for the best bang for you buck in personal appearance, I'd say skip the personal trainer and go to the tailor. Anna's that good. I just had some ho-hum run of the mill work pants altered by Anna and all I can say is, "wow!" She knocked them out of the park. read more

Amazing work! Dropped off several pieces for alterations and they all turned out literally perfect. Thank you so much!!

Sharp, timely, and affordable! I needed a bridesmaid dress altered quickly and they were able to handle it far faster than j expected and at a great price! The whole process was a breeze! I'd definitely recommend it to anyone with altering needs! read more

I had a suit altered at Val's. They took something I bought off the rack at Target (yes, I bought a suit a Target) and made it look like waaaay more expensive than it really was. It fit like a glove after that. So I've got no complaints about their work. Plus the price was reasonable and the woman who helped me was very pleasant. I'll go back. read more

Best experience! I had a bridesmaid dress that didn't zip and was not fitting right at all!! Anna fixed the dress right up and was great at letting me know when it would be ready:) I will not be going anywhere else for alterations. Highly recommend!!! read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! First of all I would just like to say that I'm very picky about my clothing, and getting it altered always makes me worry that it wont be the same or that it won't live up to the vision I had for it. This worry has been put to bed all together since I started going to Val's! Anna is the owner and she does an outstanding job. I've taken multiple bridesmaid dresses to her (all of which I hated at the time of purchase) and have loved the outcome of every one of them. I've even worn a couple of them outside of the weddings. She has exceeded my expectations for every piece I've taken to her. Now even my boyfriend, who never really cared about the quality of his alterations, takes his things here too. Between the two of us we've had bridesmaids dresses, cocktail dresses, suits, pant hems, and dress shirts altered by Anna and have been very pleased with all of her work. And as a bonus, her mom does alterations as well! When Anna was going to be out of town and I needed a dress altered at the last minute she made arrangements with her mom to do it. I just stopped by for a quick fitting, and she took care of the rest. I simply had to drive to her mom's location and pick it up! Do yourself a favor and go and see her, your wardrobe will thank you! read more

Anna does some of the best tailoring I've ever seen. She makes off the rack clothes look incredible. I have been to her for 10+ items (shirts, pants, suits, etc.) and everything she does turns out fantastic. Not only does she do quality work, but it is very quick. If you need something rushed, she is more than happy to accommodate. I would recommend her to anyone! read more

I went to Val's Tailor Shop for alterations on my bridesmaid dress. Before alterations, the dress fit so poorly. It didn't fit in the right places and overall looked baggy. Anna was very welcoming when we walked in, immediately getting to work. She knew exactly what needed to be done for the dress to flatter my body. She made very helpful suggestions both during and after the alterations. When I returned to try on the dress after the alterations, the fit was fabulous! I would highly recommend going here for any alteration needs! read more

I've had two suits hemmed here, and am awaiting work on the third. For convenience, I'm very happy as it's located near where I live. For service, I'm very happy as they were able to get me in and turn around the work in less than a week. I called both times before stopping in, and had a fine experience each time; even asking that I wear the shoes I'll be wearing when I have the suits on to get a better idea. That may seem like a no brainer to some people, but I don't get this sort of work done, so a friendly reminder was helpful. Both times I was satisfied by the work, and I was basically in and out in less than 5 minutes. read more

Anna does A+ work. There were a couple of items that I bought from stores that provide tailoring, specifically a jacket. I wanted some changes made to the jacket and they said they couldn't do it. I brought it to Anna and she got it done no problem! Also, my suits, sport coats, and slacks always look fantastic. The price is great and the turn around time is super easy. Also, my wife got her wedding dress tailored by Anna and absolutely loved it (and I thought she looked great too!). read more

Val's does great work. I bring in shirts and suits all the time and I am always completely satisfied. I have an athletic build and everything I buy has to be tailored. The service is great and the prices are reasonable. read more

Every time I try to make an appointment they are closing early or closed and unwilling to give examples of when they might be open- to the point it's almost rude. Too bad, I was hoping for a good tailor close to home. read more

Val's Tailor shop exceeded my expectations. Anna was especially excellent. She was able to adjust several of my most precious items so that they once again fit like a charm. This is a very professional and very well run business that I would recommend highly. Thank you Anna! read more

Not only the WORST alterations I've ever received but the worst customer service, by the owner at that! I had a wedding coming up and was asked to purchase a J Crew bridesmaids dress. Unfortunately it was too small but it was the largest size available, therefore needing alterations. The seamstress ended up inserting a v-shaped panel at the bottom of the bodice completely changing the look of the dress. Not only that but the v puckered drastically and didn't even lay flat as a dress normally would. When I expressed my frustration with the looks of the v-shaped panel and the fit, I was immediately told it was the only way to make it work. (She hadn't even seen it on). After speaking with several other seamstresses to see what options were available, it was clear there were in fact many other ways to have enlarged the dress and now correct this problem. I walked out mortified and with a $400 dress that I wasn't even sure could be rectified. I will NEVER again use their services. Beware. I only gave one star on this because it wouldn't let me put nothing. read more
