After 28 Years, Clothing Store Returns to Clayton
Savile Row owner David Shockley opened his first store in the area nearly three decades ago.
Custom clothier and shirtmaker Savile Row has returned to its roots with a new location that opened May 8 in Clayton. The dress clothes tailor had previously been in Ladue, but owner David Shockley said his first store was actually stationed across the street from his new one, albeit nearly 28 years ago. He said he is enjoying the new store’s proximity to Clayton’s bustling business scene. “We like it. It’s got a lot of good visibility and some better foot traffic,” he said. “It’s fun being part of the Clayton community.” Located at 8101 Maryland Ave., the business crafts made-to-order tuxedos, suits, sport coats, dress shirts and trousers that accommodate a range of clients, said Wendy Jones, custom clothier for Savile Row.
