About Us
Preloved Chic was founded in Harrogate in April 2024 by Cat Stanford, who brings over 30 years of fashion industry experience. We specialise in authentic preloved designer pieces alongside unique high-street finds.
Our boutique is open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am–4pm, with personal shopping appointments available on Saturdays and selected evenings. We also offer private shopping experiences — whether you’d like help building a capsule wardrobe or simply an evening of fizz and fashion with friends.
How does it work?
We sell your items in our boutique and, where suitable, on our website. Once your item sells, we take a commission from the final selling price and you receive the rest. If your item doesn’t sell, you can either collect it or donate it to one of our charity shop partners.
Do you buy items?
Occasionally, yes — we may buy selected pieces outright if they’re a perfect fit.
However, most people choose to consign with us, as it usually offers a better return. we do, but most people consign with us.
