YWCA Crowded Closet
For over 40 years, the Crowded Closet consignment shop has been a staple in our North Shore community and shopping destination for mid to high end women’s designer clothing.
Just like YWCA Shop for Good, our resale boutique in Wilmette, 100% of profits from Crowded Closet support YWCA’s domestic violence and economic advancement programs, helping hundreds of women and children throughout northeastern Cook County.
Come and visit!
Note: Masks required unless fully vaccinated.
We sell mid to high end women’s designer clothing, outerwear, shoes, boots, purses, jewelry, and accessories. We get new consignments weekly, and are continuously restocking with up-to-the minute prestige-label clothing and accessories in excellent condition. We often have brand-new items with manufacturers’ and store tags still attached.
Here are the kind of great items you can expect to find:
