Great work!

Ms. Do does excellent work. I have taken three suit jackets to her and each one has come back fitting as though it were bespoke. One can buy off-the-rack with confidence knowing that after a quick stop at Ms. Do's shop, your purchase will immediately look as though it were high end. Prices for men's tailoring aren't necessarily cheap, but its most definitely worth it. Highly recommended for any men's tailoring needs.

Simply Amazing

by eheisman at Citysearch

Took an overcoat into be tailored. It was big on me, but I had no idea how big. They re-cut the coat and sized it perfectly to fit like a glove. Unlike other tailors I have used, you can't even tell it's been altered. Even had me go in for a fitting mid-way through the process (haven't done so since getting a custom suit made from scratch in Hong Kong- very professional). Definitely the best tailor around. As a Wash U student for the past 4 years, I've used plenty of tailors around the area, and none of them compare.

• Pros: Best tailoring experience- from NY originally
• Cons: None

Fast, Affordable, Beautiful Job on a Wedding Dress

by missflamingo at Citysearch

I could not be more pleased with the quality of service and workmanship at Brentwood Alteration and Tailor. After buying my wedding dress out of state, I was worried about blindly choosing a tailor in the St. Louis area. The reviews on this site were enough to convince we to give this place a try, and I am SO GLAD I did.

From the moment I walked into the store, it was obvious that Ms. Do is very knowledgeable and talented. Though admitted to me that she had never seen a train quite like the one on my dress, she was still able to quickly fashion a bustle that is beautiful and seamless. Because of the detailed beading on the bodice of my dress, I was worried it would be difficult to take the dress in a bit at the bust, and I knew the intricacy would likely drive up the cost. Making the adjustment was no problem for Ms. Do, and the price was much lower than I had anticipated (especially because I had already been quoted a price from the shop where I bought my dress based on what their alterations expert normally charges). Ms. Do charged much less than what I was expecting.

I brought my dress to Ms. Do two months before my wedding because many of my bridesmaids had been told it would take at least one month to finish their alterations. I assumed a bridal gown would take even more time. I was absolutely shocked when I was able to pick up my dress at Brentwood Alteration and Tailor after two weeks.

After my positive experience here, I will never go to another tailor in the St. Louis area. I highly recommend Brentwood Alteration and Tailor.

• Pros: Affordable, Fast, Personable, Extremely Helpful

Best alteration shop in town

In my opinion, this is the best alteration shop in St. Louis. I took my wedding dress there to be altered and was able to pick it up the very next week. The price was very reasonable and the work was beautiful and professional.

• Pros: Super nice staff and extremely professional work

Great and reliable work!

by ATD at Citysearch

This place is wonderful! I have used Brentwood Alterations and Tailor twice, and been quite satisfied each time. When I needed a last minute alteration to a bridesmaid dress, Ms. Do was able to finish my dress in two days to have it was ready in time for the wedding; not to mention that it fit perfectly. The work is high-quality and Ms. Do takes time with each client to ensure that everything's done right. You can depend on Brentwood Alterations and Tailor for a commitment to superb work and great service!

• Pros: Quality work, customer service
• Cons: Closes at 5:30

So grateful for a job well done!

by longsleevetee at Citysearch

I just got my wedding dress back from Brentwood Alteration, and could not be more thrilled at the quality of their workmanship. Not only does it fit like a glove, but the alteration was done so professionally that it is literally impossible to tell where the dress was taken in. Loan is truly talented, and her many years of experience are evident in the quality of her work. The bustle on my dress was quite complicated, and I was not sure how she would approach it, but the finished product is both elegant and easy to put up. At least two of my bridesmaid's will have their alterations done here, and I would happily recommend her services to anyone who asked.

• Pros: meticulous workmanship, reasonable prices
• Cons: none

Great place

by RA1980 at Citysearch

I needed to get my dress hemmed and I called many bridal shops and always given the same answer...."It's too close to prom, we have no openings left." My Co-worker told me about this place so I called and was told to come in the next day. It also needed to be taken in, and it was difficult to do. it couldn't all be taken in at one place. Because of the beading it had to be taken in at 4 different places. They did a beautiful job, and I can't wait to wear the dress. They were all very nice and I can't believe how difficult this dress was and how wonderful it looks and fits.

Artistry and flair

by kiblz at Citysearch

Brentwood Alteration and Tailoring is the best I have ever used. They were able to create a beautiful and unique cape to go with my formal gown. Not only was my gown now appropriate for a professional holiday party, but Brentwood Alteration’s artistry and flair was refreshing. Also, I have been bringing my slacks, skirts, jackets, and coats to them for alterations for at least 10 years now and have always been happy with the results. I recommend them highly.

• Pros: Best alterations in St. Louis
• Cons: So wonderful they are very busy

Beautiful job on a wedding dress and bustle!!

by nmlewis at Citysearch

I too decided to take my wedding dress to Brentwood Alterations based on the positive feeback from other satisfied customers. I needed the length of my dress altered as well as a bustle. Ms. Do was very friendly and caring and took a lot of time in making sure the dress came out perfect- and it did!! The prices did not "break the bank" and the service was fast. I would highly recommend Ms. Do and Brentwood Alterations to anyone and I will be a lifelong customer! Thanks Again!

• Pros: Good work, friendly, good prices
