Upscale Consignment Brand Second Time Around To Be Featured in Bravo Reality Show "Fashion Hunters"

Upscale Consignment Brand Second Time Around To Be Featured in Bravo Reality Show "Fashion Hunters"

BOSTON, Sept. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- National upscale consignment retailer Second Time Around will be the focus of the season's hottest new reality television show on Bravo, "Fashion Hunters," premiering October 4th at 10:30 ET/PT. With 12 episodes airing on subsequent Tuesday nights, the show follows the fashionistas of Second Time Around's New York City Mott Street location as they go out searching the attics, closets and garages of the city's elite. Far from the land of thrift, the hip shop makes dreams come true for shoppers looking for designer fashions on a budget. In the show, the Second Time Around team interacts with demanding customers from savvy socialites to downtown hipsters looking to sell back or buy their next great "get."

Based in New England, Second Time Around (STA) is a high-end consignment company that carries new and almost-new designer clothing and accessories. Since opening its flagship Massachusetts shop in 1973, the budget-friendly fashion empire has grown to include 26 stores in some of the country's hippest shopping districts. Second Time Around carries the most coveted and current designer pieces that are always seasonal and on trend -- clothing, scarves, fine and costume jewelry, handbags, belts, shoes, sunglasses, and more. With 50,000 active consignors and a constant influx of new merchandise, the boutique's inventory changes hourly so Second Time Around promises to never be the same place twice.

"Although many people have already discovered consignment shopping, we hope that the premiere of 'Fashion Hunters' will allow for Second Time Around to reach fashionistas who have yet to consider resale as an option for finding runway style on a budget," remarked CEO Bill Soncini. "We're thrilled to be a part of Bravo family, we truly hope that everyone enjoys the show - and most importantly, we hope to remain and excel at being one of the most trusted names in the consignment industry."

To consign items, clients call a STA location near them and schedule an appointment. Items are priced at 65%-70% off their original retail value and are placed on sale for a 90-day period, wherein consignors receive 40% of the final selling price. Articles of clothing must be of a current style, seasonally appropriate and generally no older than two years. In addition articles should be in new or like-new condition and freshly dry-cleaned or laundered.
