Raleigh Designer Consignment Store
What did you do over the Raleigh tax free weekend? I stopped in Revolver Consignment Store in the Glenwood South area of downtown Raleigh. Revolver is a neat women’s consignment clothing store. When I was growing up, they didn’t have designer-like clothing consignment places. Revolver carries new to slightly worn designer clothing. People make appointments to have pieces of clothing considered. I think I was told that people who bring in new clothing with tags that they accept get 50% of what they paid. But many pieces of clothing aren’t approved, which is understandable. I imagine they only want stuff others want, in good condition, and the style of clothing they want…like designer clothing mostly.
I sifted through some of the racks and found quite a few pieces that I liked. I like cute and stylish stuff. So it made me happy to see a lot of that. I’m like most people shopping… I get frustrated when I don’t find something that I’m looking for. This time I wasn’t looking for anything in particular.
And, Revolver has a lot of dressy tops, and casual tops. Also, sweaters, dresses, skirts, and every type of clothing that most women have in their closets. They also have a shoe section. But I’m not one for shopping or buying the previously worn shoes, but that’s just me. Even though they did have some cute shoes.

They have a few racks of jeans. Mostly designer jeans. I saw 7 for Mankind, Joes, and other brand name designer jeans. I also saw a pair of Wrangler jeans. They had some very detailed pocketing which is really popular now and designer-esque.

There are a few places called “crossroads trading” here in California (and I think there are a few others nationwide) that buy and re-sell used designer clothing, but they don’t allow independent designers to come in and showcase their original stuff.
Sounds awesome!
