(Proceeds go to St. Louis's foster care coalition--their HQ is also in this same building). They have a selection of normal clothes -- women's and men's -- on the bottom floor, along with shoes and accessories (earrings and jewelry). But what really stands out is their cute formal dress section on the second level! Perfect for prom, wedding guest, bridesmaid etc. They have floor length dresses for $35 and shorter dresses for $25. They even have a few floor length wedding gowns for brides for $100!! (Plus a section for mother of the bride dresses). I've gotten 2 formal dresses here so far with lots of compliments (wore one on a beachy vacation and another as a destination wedding guest)!! I visited again this week as I thought I'd look for a wedding dress here since they have super affordable options. I didn't end up finding a dress in my size since they only have a few but it was still really impressive they had some in stock at all! And at this price point. There were some beautiful dresses in smaller sizes as well with big princess-like ballgown-style trains. They also accept donations. You can either get a tax receipt or a $5 off coupon! The staff there have also been very friendly every time I've gone!! They have the store decorated currently for their prom season--girls who are in foster care who are accepted into their program get to shop for a prom dress for free! So cool!

**May 2025: Monday Afternoon Visit**…read more My friend and I wanted to check out the thrift scene in St. Louis, but unfortunately a lot of the charity shops were closed on Memorial Day. I called ahead to see if Refresh had different hours and fortunately, they were open! There's a parking lot behind the building and when I stepped in I was really impressed by how nicely arranged everything was. It definitely gave off boutique vibes and there's a dressing room on the top floor along with many aisles of formal/prom/wedding dresses. The price point for the casual day-to-day items were a little higher than that of a Salvation Army/Goodwill, but everything was steamed and in really good condition, plus all the proceeds are given to St. Louis's Foster Care Coalition (and no tax). The men's section was pretty small, but the women's was really stacked. When I went to the 3rd floor to check out the formal wear it was like a kid in a candy shop. They arranged the formal dresses by size and there were some really incredible finds there. Unlike downstair where everything is priced individually I believe all short dresses were $25 and the long ones were $35, and my guess is that these dresses are left over from their Cinderella project (gifting girls a fairytale prom experience without worrying about money). I think I spent almost 2 hours in the shop and I still didn't get to try everything one, but I was happy with my purchases. One thing to note in the future - I will wear proper spanx/strapless bra to improve my formal dress shopping experience. Otherwise, this charity shop is a fantastic place to support a great mission and treat yourself! It's a win-win!

That said, when I asked for assistance finding the try-on socks they said "just look around, they're somewhere out there" and gestured to the rows of shoes. I never did find them. Luckily, the shoes I ordered fit and they became mine. This store is incredibly messy and the workers are rude. It's also dirty in certain pockets. I think the value of going in store is picking up a variety of shoes that are not going to get to you as quickly as through Amazon and being able to try them on in person. That said, I would be wary of coming here without a plan of what you are looking for because the employees will not be helpful. Love the shoes I picked up though.

I've been here a couple of times for small jobs--hemming pants, ripped crotch (blame my…read morethighs)--but I just got back my first big formal wear alteration, and I'll base the substance of my review here on that. I bought a dress that was a couple sizes too big for me to wear as a guest to a wedding (actually bought the dress twice, but that's on me for not understanding UK sizes), and I decided it was easier to get a too large dress to fit than a too small dress. To that end, i was pretty much swimming in fabric. Both the cape and the dress had to be hemmed more than a coupla inches. I wore the shoes ill wear with the dress to the first fitting. Speaking of first fitting, I walked in without an appointment, but they were able to accommodate me and do the measurements and marking up. I also needed the halter tightened around the back of my neck and the waist brought in so the back piece laid flat against the small of my back. They could have brought the hips in, too, but we decided it wasn't necessary. I was nervous about giving instructions or ruining the garment/style, but Irina (the owner) was the one helping me the day I walked in and she was helpful in maintaining the integrity of the idea while making it fit. They gave me a month til I could come back (which was still a month before the event), and "lost" my dress upon pickup day. Scare quotes because they did find it that afternoon after i left, and I came back the next day to try it on and they gave me a small discount for the inconvenience/stress. I was not stressed because I was taking care of the tailoring so early (hopefully not TOO early...). Idk how much attention you get at a tailor, but everything seemed to fit right. This is a busy place, which is why they temporarily misplaced my items amidst their many many dress jobs. A man was getting fitted while I was picking up, which is why I didn't know if I would have recieved more attention otherwise (double booked? Again, didn't really need more?). Ive got a few pants for fall/winter that ill need hemmed so I'll be back. I remember hem jobs being like 20 per piece? Im kinda embarrassed about how much ive spent on this dress (including buying 2x mind you), but I'll say that the tailoring job, even before the discount, was like...70% of the retail price? Which i suppose is fair for totally resizing a formal piece? Anyway, Irina said I'd get a lot of compliments and she liked my style, which i hope both are true even if she was just being nice.
