How To Become A Valued Wardrobe Consignor


Wardrobe of Arlington - quality consignment clothing for women

What we are looking for in consignment clothing
We are looking for better quality women's clothing: casual wear, formal wear, costume jewelry, bags and purses.

Select your IN-SEASON clothes. Make sure everything is freshly cleaned and pressed. Hanging it will keep it neat — the better it looks, the more you'll make!

Clothes sell quickly and for higher prices if they are IN STYLE and in excellent condition. If you bought it new within the last year or two, it's probably fine. If you haven't seen it in a magazine in the last two years, please don't bring it in.

Excellent condition means not missing any buttons or belts, free from stains, odors, holes, excessive wear, pilling, alterations or flaws that effect salability. If you wouldn't buy it in the condition its in, it's a safe bet that no one else will. Ask yourself, is it clean? Is it fresh? Is it pressed?

Make an appointment
Simply call 781.641.3325, and we will set aside time to devote special attention to your consignment.

Pricing and payment
All prices are set by Wardrobe. Pricing is determined by the original (new) retail selling price of the item, demand for the product and our experience. Prices may change at any time to facilitate sales. When an item sells, you receive ONE-HALF of the selling price. Checks are mailed at the end of the 9-week consignment period.

Regarding the seasons
Even though we don't "run ahead of season" like retail stores, we still observe the change of seasons.

We take in-season clothes on or after these dates:

February 1st — Spring
April 15th — Summer
August 1st — Fall & Back to school
October 1st —Winter
