Selling
We absolutely love selling new, sample and gently worn designer gowns at affordable prices. Quite simply, it's what we do and it's what we love to do.

Consigning
If you are a bride who is finding it difficult to find a buyer for your gown, send us a note! Or, if you are the owner of a bridal salon and would like a simple, no hassle way to sell your sample gowns, contact us! We are always interested in discussing our consignment services.

We reach a global audience and can make your gown visible to brides worldwide.

Please contact us to confirm whether your gown is a good fit for our inventory. All gowns we consign must retail for at least $2,000, no more than 18 months old, and come from a 2004 collection or newer. If we think your gown is a good fit for us, we'll ask you to ship your gown to our location in West Hollywood, California where we keep it until it's sold. Local brides are welcome to drop it off with us. We provide you with our Consignment Agreement which sets the terms between us and our consigning brides.

We collaborate on a price, and we add your gown to our website. It will be included within all marketing materials and heavily advertised. We will make it available to try in person by (serious) local brides. If the gown is sold to a long distance bride, we facilitate any shipping and sales tax.

In exchange, we receive a 30% commission of the gown's proceeds. Most consignment businesses seek 50% of any proceeds, which makes us very competitive. Our Consignment Agreement is very straightforward and easy to understand. The process is simple and stress free!

Buying
We purchase gowns from 'two-dress' brides, brides who had a change of heart and gowns gently worn after the Big Day. Also, we purchase sample gowns from bridal salons seeking a quick and efficient way to make room for new inventory.

In cases where gowns are new, we advise brides not to remove any tags. In cases where gowns are preowned and already cleaned, we prefer to receive proof of such. We ask for all receipts (when available), confirmation of measurements after any alterations, and disclosure of any imperfections.

We know that brides are very careful with their gowns, but all gently worn gowns are likely to have some minor flaws. We pride ourselves on open communication and ask for full disclosure from our selling brides. We will send a prompt reply confirming whether we are interested in purchasing your gown. It's so easy and hassle free!

Finding
If you're a bride in search of The Perfect Dress and don't see it listed within our inventory, we will research all available channels to find the exact dress or comparable styles of it.

For this service we negotiate the best possible price with the selling bride and add a 20% service charge to that price. This fee covers our time, transaction charges and shipping costs. You set the budget and we stick to that budget. We always inspect the gown prior to shipping.

If you are trying to hunt down The Perfect Dress, we ask you to contact us by clicking on the 'Contact Us' link and filling out our gown inquiry form to start your search with us.
