Why buy clothing at the Best Dressed Store?
“Around fifteen per cent of the Best Dressed Store’s stock is brand new. Why pay $300 for a high-quality outfit when you can get it for $30?”, says Trevor, Best Dressed Store Manager.
Money from all purchases made at the store is used to create sustainable and ongoing funding to help vulnerable clients through the Communities at Work Clothing Program, Community Pantries, and other support services provided to struggling individuals and families.
