Sorry, we do not accept lingerie, sleepwear, bathing suits or exercise clothes, or men's and children's wear. We are especially picky about shoe condition and accept only new or virtually unworn.
Designing Women Boutique specializes in designer fashions and we are very choosy about label, condition, style, seasonality and appropriateness for our clientele. If you bring us something for which we feel our shop is not the right place, we will be happy to refer you elsewhere or to take the items as a donation, give you a receipt and send them on to another charity.
