Dress for Success Wellington Autumn Clothing Sale

On this week >>> Wed 16 & Thu 17, 11.30am - 6pm each day

Hello fellow bargain hunters,

This week is the Dress for Success Wellington Autumn Clothing Sale. If you fancy yourself in Karen Walker but think you can’t afford it - Dress for Success Wellington has the answer!

We have some amazing labels for sale at rock-bottom prices. You and your mates can scoop up bargains from designers including Karen Walker, Trelise Cooper, Zambesi, Wallace Rose, Veronica Maine, World and even Versace. Of course there will also be lots of chain-store staples that your wardrobe can’t do without!

Nothing is above $50, with most items as low as $5 for tops, $10 for skirts and suits at around $25.

The sale helps us clear out items that are not suitable as interview or work wear, and clears space for incoming winter stock. It also helps raise cash so we can continue to provide our much-needed service.

The sale is open to you - my friends, also to our clients, client referral agencies and the general public – be in early to catch a bargain from our packed racks! The sale is held at the Dress for Success Wellington Office and Showroom, Ground Floor, 84 Willis Street, Wellington.

Please note, we don’t have an eftpos facility, we will be accepting cash or cheque sales only.

Please also, pass on the word - spread it round!

This is (from memory) for women's clothing only, right?

I like to imagine that good-intentioned donors have been dropping off fabulous cocktail gowns, imagining they'll be of immediate use to a solo mum wanting to get back into the workforce.

Ok so if I'd followed the link I woulda found out quite quickly that yes, indeed, it is for women only.

No fair! ;)

Although, from their FAQ:
Is there an organization like Dress for Success for men?
