    Emilia was so very sweet and hemmed/took my delicate silk dress in perfectly.

    Emilia was so very sweet and hemmed/took my delicate silk dress in perfectly. Would not hesitate to work with her again! She even kept her shop open a few minutes later than usual so that I could pick my dress up after work.

    Emilia did a beautiful job on my daughters prom gown!  She is a gem!

    Emilia is a gem! What a pleasant woman to do business with. She did a beautiful job on my daughters very expensive prom gown!

    Wonderful Portuguese lady; she's owner and seamstress. I've had pants hemmed, silk dresses taken in, etc, the worked she does is amazing and the prices are lower than at the retail stores. Her accent is a little heavy, but she makes up for it with good work.

    My mothers dress for my brothers wedding that was fix very well and fast.

    See all

    Emilia did an excellent job altering my bridesmaid dress. She was professional, friendly, and prompt.

    My high school senior needed two suits for upcoming proms, one blue and one black, with different…read morecolor accessories. Not knowing where to start, a family member suggested we visit Carl Anthony tuxedo. We walked in and were greeted immediately. Our sales person, Taylor, made the process quick and easy. She went through the options of renting vs buying a suit and took some measurements. She asked a few questions to narrow down the accessories (vest, suspenders, bow tie, traditional tie, shoes etc) and brought over a few jackets for my son to try on. We decided to rent the blue suit (for $229 which comes with a button down shirt you get to keep, plus a tie, and shoes to wear for the event) and buy the black suit (for $299 plus alterations) She took our deposit and we were done. We were in and out in 30 minutes and totally happy with our selections. Next up, sizing, alterations, and pickup. Hoping the next step goes as smooth as our visit today.

    We came to Carl Anthony Tuxedo to help my sister's fiancé find a wedding suit--to buy, not rent…read more Unfortunately, the experience was disheartening and left us feeling ignored and unwelcome. After we arrived, multiple white customers came in after us and were helped immediately--greeted, toured through the store, and shown suit options by several staff members. Meanwhile, we were told to "look around" and left standing without any assistance. This happened repeatedly--each time a white couple entered, they were prioritized while we were overlooked. The most blatant moment was when a white couple was shown matching shoes right in front of us, while we stood less than a foot away still waiting. No one in our group is white, and the stark contrast in treatment felt racially motivated. We waited over 30 minutes before someone finally came over to help us, and even then, the staff member seemed visibly annoyed that we were trying on suits. This was supposed to be a celebratory moment for a groom preparing for his big day. Instead, it became a frustrating experience marked by unequal treatment. We truly hope this business reflects on how it treats all its customers moving forward.

    I just got married this past weekend in Waltham. During the wedding planning process, I researched…read morevarious online suit rental places such as Menguin and the Black Tux at Nordstrom. I was unimpressed by the service I received by them and the way they calculated measurements (Those services don't actually take measurements and you have input the information yourself). I also had bad experiences with Men's Warehouse in the past with other weddings that I have attended as a groomsmen. I realized that there was a local option in Waltham for me to check out. The staff at Formalwear Ltd were very friendly and knowledgeable. I visited the store multiple times as I collaborated with them and my fiance to select the perfect tux combination for my wedding. I picked up my tux a couple of days before the wedding and the size for some of the parts of it were off, but it was no problem at all as they overnighted the correct sizes. Everything fit perfectly for my wedding. If you need to rent a suit or tux for a local event, I highly recommend them!

    My old tux was just not fitting right anymore and I have an event coming up I need a tux for, so I…read morewent in to see John. He checked out my tux and how it fit me and suggested keeping the jacket and getting new pants and a shirt, which I did (and was cheaper than a whole new tux). John had me try on multiple sizes of pants and shirt to get the best fit, and told me about the different options. The new pants and shirt fit way better than the old ones and the price was reasonable. My tux looks so much better now!John is a friendly guy and the service was excellent. I would definitely go back here if I have further tux needs!
