Le Thrift Consignment

My friend and I discovered Le Thrift during a spring sale event in the neighborhood. A bunch of stores along Chicago Ave tempted shoppers with sales, mimosas and treats!
I instantly fell in love with many pieces here and thought the prices were fair. I found my dream Marc Jacobs wallet/​clutch, too! I didn’t buy it right away, as I wanted to think about it. It was still there when we came back so it must have been a sign! The wallet was from about a decade ago and retailed for almost $ 300, which I couldn’t afford. It was in great condition and $ 30! It’s not an outdated style either, not that I care though!
The store owner was super nice and we chatted with her for a bit while sipping on mimosas. I’m in the process of spring cleaning and updating my wardrobe, and this will be my first stop for clothes!

I can’t say enough good things about this store. From both a shopper’s and consignor’s perspective, my experience here has been consistently outstanding. The store itself is beautiful and the merchandise is both expertly curated and well displayed: good selection of vintage pieces and contemporary designer brands, some extremely high end and some moderate. Christine and Ebony are fantastic to work with from the consignor’s point of view and you can shop with confidence knowing that they are meticulous and thorough in the selection of the store’s merchandise. I couldn’t be happier with any of the things I’ve gotten there, especially the Rick Owens leggings which were the perfect layering piece under a dress when I had to go somewhere fancy in the middle of February and it was seriously cold out and I wanted to look cute without freezing my derrière. This is a seriously awesome place to shop!

It’s like stuff from her basement or something??? Nothing interesting at all and WAY too expensive for «thrift»! Didn’t get it.

What a great perfectly curated selection of my fav brands. Pricing is super good for the quality of consignment. Major upside of the shop is the store manager who is very kind, informative and passionate about her job. Will always be back when in Chicago.

Yet again another fantastic experience with Christine at Le Thrift! Amazing vintage jewelry at unbelievable prices. What makes this place so special is the range of sizes– from xs to 1x, designer selection– Armani, Fendi as well as local artists and the outstanding customer service. Skip the mall– support a local business.

Great fashion pieces are meant to be passed down! Thank god they get passed down to Le Thrift! Le thrift reminds of the great vintage boutiques that you would find along the cobblestone streets of New York, but they are located in Chicago! Burberry, Louis Vuitton, and Gucci are just some of the brands that you will find housed in Le Thrift. I enjoy that they have a variety of brands and pieces. And the quality is amazing, every piece that I have gotten their has never had stain, hole, or a thread missing. I go there not only for the brands, but to shop with awesome people. It’s like having a stylist right down the street, they know your style and exactly what you want right after meeting you. Christine, the owner, has a true love for fashion and honestly will become your best friend after meeting her. Ebony, as well has a true love for fashion, always up the latest trends, and wants nothing more for you to enjoy shopping at Le Thrift, her up upbeat and energetic attitude makes any shopping trip fun! Message to any Chicago Fashionista: Take a break from the busy streets of overpriced Michigan Ave and take stroll to Chicago Ave, where the shopping experience is one of kind!

Free people, kooba, joe’s… Oh My. Loving this place to pieces! All my favorite brands and wonderful people. This place knows how to do consignment. And the art pieces shouldn’t be overlooked. Definitely worth the 2 bus rides!

New to the area & was on the hunt for vintage shops. Passed by LeThrift a few times & was allured by the neon sign lol & was thrilled with my experience during opening hours. LeThrift had a boutique feel with an artsy twist. Really appreciated the mix of designer labels with unique vintage pieces. Staff was awesome & mentioned some upcoming events that seemed like my friends & I would really enjoy for a night out. Great vibe, beautiful space with a fresh approach to the neighborhood.

I love thrift store shopping in Chicago. It seriously doesn’t get any better than this place either.
A wide variety of brand names and designer names as well. Everything I saw was in great condition; no stains, holes or tears, or broken zippers. I found so many pieces that were affordably priced too. Overall, a great shop. I didn’t leave empty handed!

This was my first time and I did not find anything, but I will probably try again another day. The prices for most clothes were good, but not amazing $ 10 – 40. The things I really liked, the higher end stuff, was all $ 75 and over (of course) and they all said «ebay» on the tag. Was disappointed by those prices. The store had a variety, everything from tanks, to jeans, to suits, to shoes. Good variety, and not too overwhelming. I agree that this place is good for 30 somethings, but best for people with a higher budget than I. I had better luck at Crossroads and 2^nd time around on Milwaukee.

Not only is the owner such a pleasure to do business with, she truly offers a nice selection. For years I had a particular high end item in my mind that I knew I wanted, never really thinking I’d come across it in such great condition for such an awesome price. Truly pleased that by way of this boutique, I got the item I had been thinking about for so long… thank you!

Le Thrift is amazing and so is owner Christine! She is truly one of the most personable, warm, creative and hard-​working women I have ever met!
If you have not visited the store, I highly recommend you stop in to meet Christine and the other staff and check out their great
Merchandise! It is a very welcoming place and perfect for Holiday shopping!
You can find name brands like Kate Spade, Gucci, BCBG just to name a few.
This store is truly a gem of Ukrainian Village!

Le Thrift Consignment was a delightful find! This chic little boutique is nestled within the diverse shops/​restaurants on Chicago Ave. I just happened to be driving by and noticed their little neon sign on my left and just had to check it out. So glad I did, with a GREAT selection of both Designer & Vintage apparel, jewelry, handbags and accessories AND a super friendly staff… What more could I have asked for?! They had so many beautiful holiday dresses to choose from; I definitely couldn’t pick just one!!! And I HAD to grab some jewelry to go with– as they had an awesome display of gorgeous vintage jewelry!!! The management was extremely personable and helpful. They were really accommodating to my needs as both a shopper and a consignor! Definitely a great place to go for anyone looking for something unique, beautiful, fashion-​forward and AFFORDABLE (!!!) for every occasion– definitely a MUST SEE BOUTIQUE!!!

I have nothing but raves to say about this company. When I decided to sell my clothes the owner came over, looked through my things and picked up my offerings. It was that simple. I love owner Christine’s taste and she loved mine. Next Le Thrift created an itemized list of my goods that I can visit in my vendor portal. The shop is filled with curated vintage and consignment clothes and accessories that are fairly priced. They even have a window in the Drake Hotel — which is what convinced me to try them to begin with. Whether you are shopping or selling you will not go wrong. I love Le Thrift and will do business with them for many years to come.

I took in a bunch of my high end designer goods and some other items in to consign. Christine the owner was so lovely and kind and honest-​which is HUGE to me in this day and age. What a wonderful easy experience. Of course when you go in to consign you end up leaving with clothes from the shop. Le thrift has an amazing collection of clothing. Christine has such n eye for fashion and whats hot.
If you have not checked out Le Thrift you are missing out, just like I did for 2 years, b4 I found it!

I had a wonderful experience with this store at their new location (1821 W. Chicago Avenue). My first impression was that the store is a lot more spacious than I thought; very airy and lots of room to walk around in. Christine, the owner, has a great eye for detail and for making her store very inviting and comfortable. It caters to all ages and sizes and there certainly is a lot to choose from. Christine took the time to explain the process of consignment and I definitely will be coming back!

Great quality stuff! Walked in for one thin and left with something I didn’t even realize i needed. Sales person very helpful and everything on sale!!!

Extremely Friendly staff, ALWAYS! Wide variety to choose from! Quality, quality! I will continue to come to this place for that perfect last minute outfit!

Great pieces! All ranges but good designer pieces. Nice set up! Friendly Staff and great finds. Stop in this summer. You can find unique pieces great for all seasons.

This store has great clothes and great prices. Their promos are excellent and I always end up buying more than I should. They have an excellent assortment of sizes so you can always make a great find. Just walked out with a Laundry dress for $ 10! Definitely come here!

i stumbled into Le Thrift while walking home from work. They have beautiful clothing, jewelry and handbags. The owners/​staff are kind and attentive without making you feel any pressure to purchase. Dressing rooms are comfortable and feel private. The prices on the things that caught my eye ranged from $ 29 to $ 200 so there are high quality beautiful things that cost a bit and there are also affordable cute things that will easily make you happy. This is a nice store.

Amazing finds, helpful staff! They have a $ 10 rack, 40% off rack and shoes are super cheap.

Le Thrift is like the 30+ woman’s guide to a new age appropriate wardrobe. Mostly designer (and price reflective) pieces that seem to come from individual closets as there are similar pieces in the same sizes. St. John, Lang, Prada… yada yada… you know the drill.
Shoes, bags and accessories also. The shoe selection is not fabulous but some heavy hitters like Jimmy Choo and Manolo thrown in with some ratty Tory Burch flats. But, like every consignment/​thrift/​secondhand store, the selection is always going to change. Bags are decent.
A 50% off rack near the dressing rooms is a nice touch and had some good items NOT just the horrible party dresses that were never worn.
Didn’t find anything this visit, but I will be back as the prices are good and the pieces are worth the money. It is good to find a store that has consciously decided to cater to women over the age of 25 with pieces that are not just formal wear.

This store is great. They make it super easy to consign your clothes, and they have pieces you can’t find anywhere else. I can always find something unique when I come here.
Also, the new location is nice and spacious.
