Established in 1947 and still going strong, Pandora Dress Agency sells well-loved, used clothes and accessories on consignment. Cutting the jargon: the shop sells these items from previous owners, tying in with ethical reselling. If you’re on the prowl for a designer handbag, a dapper new jacket for the spring sunshine, or want to feel swish and stylish without paying full whack for a brand new high-end label, Pandora Dress Agency is Knightsbridge’s answer to thrift and charity shop fashion with a boutique twist.
What gems can you find at Pandora Dress Agency?
From vintage to on-trend, shoes and handbags nestle amongst tops, trousers, and all else adorable, customers sing the shop’s praises as a maze of Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and Dolce & Gabbana – just to name drop a few icons. Tucked just off the main Brompton Road thoroughfare, look for a decadent and elaborate floral entrance. Once inside, there’s a labyrinth of tidily presented upscale second-hand finds to browse through.
Across an elegant plethora of luxury brands, the distinguished boutique stocks dresses, coats, skirts, footwear, jackets, and trousers. Of glitzy accessories on offer, starry-eyed shoppers can find bags and sunglasses, hats, and gloves. One of the more quirky accessories displayed online (*at the time of writing) includes bodysuits by Versace and Christian Dior.
The shop has new items arriving daily. Pandora is considered by many to be the crème de la crème of dress agencies.
The staff take pride and care in the items they sell, appreciating the elegant nature of their merchandise. While prices are tailored for premium shoppers, rates at Pandora will save savvy shoppers in the upscale market money compared to buying brand new. Furthermore, the shop gives browsers the chance to find and own glorious fashion pieces which may no longer be found anywhere else.
Patrons of the classy boutique say that the staff are super lovely and helpful, and thankfully won’t follow you around – as some premium retailers may – giving the pleasant privilege of breathing space, room to browse, and time to think. A long-standing jewel of Kensington, Pandora Dress Agency is right up your alley for the chicest shopping experience. Pop down and be dazzled!
