Appointments are booked on average 2-3 weeks in advance.
We have a 60 day consignment period.
After 60 days Modern Millie owns any unsold items and will donate to a local charity soon following. Exceptions are high end and special vintage pieces. Items can be picked up before the 60 day term, all you need to do is give us a call and a pickup day.
You will receive 40% of the sale proceeds on all items sold.
The prices of the consigned items are to be determined by a Modern Millie staff member.
You will be paid by check for items sold. Checks will be printed on the 15th. Checks are a minimum of $50. Any balance due will be paid at the end of the term.
What We Accept
Clothing must be no more than 2 years old or vintage. (Vintage is 1920’s- 1970’s)
Clothing only in perfect, in season, and clean condition are accepted for consignment. February-August spring/summer, August-January fall/winter.
We have a 3 piece minimum and a 20 piece maximum.
We stick with a particular style, though we may like your clothes, if they do not suit the style of the store we will not take them. We prefer mid-range to high end designer labels, and are more on the
trendy than classic side.
Preferred Labels: Banana Republic, Anthropologie, H&M, Express, J. Crew, Marc Jacobs, Ann Taylor, and similar styles. Vintage 1920's-1982 and especially mid-century vintage.
