Encore Boutique & Consignments

Marcy Drewry

My daughter graciously took about 5 prom dresses from my house and about 5 bridesmaid/ mother of the bride dresses to try and do something with them other than throw them away or land them at Goodwill. She called ahead and was told they were taking prom dresses now (Feb) but weren’t taking bridesmaids/mother of the bride dresses until March. My daughter thanks whomever she spoke with and on Saturday she and her husband headed to Encore. As they were unloading the car, someone from the store came flying out and stated “we don’t take dresses on Saturday.” Not in a nice way by any means. My daughter stated she had called so the woman (cause I wouldn’t describe her as a “lady) said “well bring Um in we will look at them. She and another clerk proceeded to criticize each one. There is a way to say things and a way not to. These women are retail sales clerks and maybe at this point they have more business than they need but that may not always be the case. A little tack and class was very necessary and very much lacking. My daughter went to a store in Aiken and the dresses were welcomed and graciously accepted and the saleswomen were ladies . It doesn’t pay to be rude and abrupt.

I read alot of comments about snobbish service so I braced myself before entering. However, that was not my experience at all. Both of the ladies I encountered were very friendly and helpful. They had a large selection of formal wear in a wide range of sizes. Store was clean and very well organized

I think I'm going to start hitting the upscale consignment shops instead of the thrift stores. The quality of clothes here is high both in the brands and the condition. They have a whole wall of shoes for those of us with a little extra love in our feet. (And it helps that the owner understands that being that she wears that size herself). But for us bargain hunters, they don't disappoint. They had a $5 rack outside that I might have to hit up later for fashionable treats!

Though they didn't have what I was searching for, the owner and employees were very helpful. They had a great selection of clothing and formal wear. Everything was in great condition and well organized. Beautiful place.
