had a bit of a womens wear thriftening. I am not up on women's wear at all, other than recognizing high end brand names, i have no idea what is actually sellable-desirable. but here is my haul, at least the known names. there are about another 15 pieces I haven't photographed yet, all less recognizable names. almost all pieces are deadstock with tags. my cost was under $11 ppu.

Some items had original store tags, like holt renfrew. others had reseller stores like filenes basement. all items are from 90s or earlier, so figure that out when looking at prices.

PSA, do not buy a chromebook. absolute garbage. i have dreams of beating the salesman over the head with it who said "it will be the best thing you ever did!"
(I would never do that)
anyways, 70s valentino. wool bell bottom pants, they are 13.5" wide in the leg.

thats it for now, have some mens wear to photograph and post next
Absolutely crazy finds....I would think that you could sell the lot to a movie or TV show stylist, seems like a killer wardrobe for wealthy character in a 70s/80s story.

Haven't had much of a chance to thrift lately: flat out finishing the second flipper house. But did manage a quick run around my little town today.

Recognized the logo from a long way off - and this at a store that wouldn't usually miss this for megapricing. 'Gamo messenger bag. Five bucks. Oops.

good idea, do you know one? does anyone else know one?

I usually only check the women's coats, but spotted the Pucci being rolled out and made a beeline for the rack. the entire rack was full, and there were two other ladies grabbing stuff, one a regular and the other some lady decked out top to bottom in designer clothes, a louis bag, gucci shoes and moncler jacket. they both got as much as me, the woman i know got a couple pieces that were great, an 80s versace shirt nwt, 2 80s armani dresses, some newer prada. tried to see what the other lady got, but she was having none of that.
