Love gladrags and have found great Little vintage dresses amongst other very unique knickknack's such as gift ideas. But I must say this that I was really disappointed when I found out today, Friday, that that the shop was closed 1.30pm even though the board clearly gives the stores open timings.I had schlepped all the way from dc with my consignments and schlepped all the way back! OYYYY!

GladRags has FINALLY started carrying cool boy clothes. If anyone shows up at this show without a new piece of cool from the Rag we'll all know you're too cheap and lazy to walk farther than your own tired closet. We've all seen your stuff, you need something new. I'll be the one in the new black cowboy shirt with big red roses on it. And man-o-man what a shopping experience. That store is always full of cooler women than you, who are making themselves look cooler than you deserve. Some of your stuff was cool before, but bring in your best stuff so some of the rest of us have a chance to wear it. There's no place you can go that you won't look better in something new from GladRags. Go there now.

Glad Rags is a feast for the fashionable. Sick of the same 'ol diet of tedious mall stalls? I was starved for a place with character and style. Many of my most fabu pieces have been found on Glad Rags racks. Prices are so reasonable that I can have a great vintage dress altered and it's still a deal. Specializing in funky, hip clothing, I was surprised when I found a sexy, classic, high end pin stripe suit. If Pussy wore the pants this place would suit her.

i drive an hour to get to glad rags. i'd dirve two. it's got vintage, flax, bake-lite, blu fish, the odd high-end funky designer piece... the perfect place for the perfect party threads. and there are always a lot of things at half price (everything goes on sale after it's been there a few weeks).
a rare bastion against the corporate conservatism of the day. there are a couple stores in its league in baltimore (my favorite: minas gallery in hampden), a bunch in san francisco and new orleans, but too few in stuffy dc.
the owner is a doll, with a killer sense of style.
and it's around the corner from another great store, ARISE, an asian import place that's amazing.
filght against the mall-ification of america and buy your christmas and birthday presents here!

The greedy side of me doesn't want to write a review. I want this store to remain my hidden gem!
This store is located in Takoma Park, but walking into this store you'll feel like you're on Haight & Ashbury or in Fells Point. From the vintage barbie clad walls to the most amazing dressing rooms ever- This place is a great place to find unique items. Everytime i go in there I find something. It's not your typical consignment shop...if you're looking for Ann Taylor or Talbot's- look elsewhere. This place is packed with fun, funky garb. On the nice weathered weekends they "yard sales" where you can pick up any clothing item for $1! Ther owner, Jody is there during the week- she always remembers me (love that!) & seems chipper & spunky & makes the shopping experience fun.
The Only bad part- parking is a little tight (park across the street at the meters, or in the Takoma Park CoOp Parking! It's worth it!
PROS: unique finds, loads of goods from local artists, great prices
CONS:

Glad Rags has a good selection of vintage clothing, including dresses, sweaters, shoes, jewelry and bags. It is a small store but there is a lot stuffed into it. It is pretty reasonably priced for a consignment store, but you sort of have to go back often to get the really good finds. The staff is very friendly.

Glad Rags is located in the downtown of Takoma Park. It's a small store, but has some fun vintage finds. They had a nice selection of jewelry and bakelite when I was there, and tons of dresses, sweaters, and shoes. This would be a great place to look for a fancy vintage dress. Prices are reasonable and the owner seems to know lots of her regular customers--always a good sign.
