The minimizers of the anisotropic fractional isoperimetric inequality with respect to a convex body $ K $ in $ \mathbb{R}^n $ are shown to be equivalent to star bodies whenever $ K $ is strictly convex and unconditional. From this a Pólya-Szegő principle for anisotropic fractional seminorms is derived by using symmetrization with respect to star bodies.

Keywords: Fractional perimeters, non-local functionals, isoperimetric inequalities, Pólya-Szegő principles, anisotropic symmetrization.
