WHO CAN CONSIGN?

DOES YOUR GOWN QUALIFY?  Well, before stressing over the "what ifs" I have created a list that will help you determine just that. 

Who Can Consign:

•Anyone with designer  gown and/or clothes

•Those with never-worn dresses

•Designers and manufacturers with samples

•Wedding boutiques with excess inventory

•Stores/designers with discontinued items

•Designer boutiques that are closing

How To Consign:

1.The studio at Southern accepts designer wedding dresses , veils, prom dresses, and mother of the bride, designer ready to wear, boutique children's clothes, accessories, shoes, and handbags.

2.Appointments are recommended. All items must be pre-qualified.

3.Gowns must be:

◦New or up to five years old (Exceptions will be made for classic styles and hard-to-find sizes)

◦Dry Cleaned and in “like-new” condition

◦Free from imperfections

4.Most items will be priced 30-70% off the retail price. We request an original sales receipt and/or tags at the time of consignment to aid in determining a fair sales price. If this is not possible, pricing will be researched and a consignment price will be determined.

5.At studio Southern's discretion, all consigned gowns will be subject to a reduction in price. There will be an established lowest price that is mutually agreed upon by both parties.

6.Gowns will be kept for nine months.  Ready to wear will be kept for 3-6 months depending on style and season.

7.Consignor will receive 50% of net sales.

8.Checks will be issued on the 25th of every month for the previous month of sale.

9.Depending on client wishes, items may be sent to a charity or returned to the consignor at the end of the consignment period.

10.Consignor will be contacted at provided contact information after allotted time for gown pickup. If gown is not picked up within one month of contact, consignor’s dress will be donated.

11. studioSOUTHERN assumes no liability for loss, damage or destruction of any items on consignment while in store’s possession.

Welcome to the studio blog!

Welcome to our blog!  Finally, after years of the same old shopping experience I decided to open a studio that would house outstanding lines and offer quality consignment for the contemporary woman.  While shopping with brides during my wedding planning days it became obvious that most of our time was spent on the road or surfing the internet.  Yes, there are fabulous boutiques and gift shops in Birmingham!  But I was looking for a place that we could get a really fantastic gown and maybe shop for a special honeymoon outfit at the same time.  It seemed as though I always wanted something that I couldn't find.  So, I would buy something similar, take it home, and re-make it to suit the vision in my head!  And we all know that can get expensive!!  Hence my need for consignment!  Catering to women who appreciate exquisite, high-quality gowns, casual wear, and accessories, studioSOUTHERN is the ideal luxury shopping destination for trendsetters.  We only carry women's wear from the best designers and accept only consignment clothing of the highest quality.

Inventory includes wedding gowns, prom/pageant gowns, mother of the bride gowns, veils, casual wear, denim, purses, belts, shoes,   children's clothes, and yes, the tutus too!  Gift ware coming soon!  Visit us in the historical Old Town Helena.  4079 Helena Road, Helena, AL  35080.

Please call 205.358.3332 to schedule an appointment to consign your clothes.
