Consignment Best Practices: Seasonality
Posted by Two Big Blondes on
We’re sharing strategies for consignment success in our Consignment Best Practices Series. While Seattle has a temperate climate and there are many items we do take year-round, we still have four distinct seasons. Our consignment period is 100 days, so in general you want to think about what people will be purchasing in the coming three months. We often hear, “but I wear sandals all year…” or “but I wear my fleece in the summer….” That may be true, yet we are focused on when people purchase these items, not wear them. Shoppers primarily buy seasonal items at the beginning...
We agree: "Fat Fashion Won't Be Ignored Any Longer."
