The Clothing Warehouse: The Clothing Warehouse is a vintage clothing and accessories store on Broughton Street. The store is a franchise and owned by a couple who lives out on Tybee Island. The store compiles of handpicked vintage dresses, tops, bottoms, t-shirts, classic Levi's, accessories, and shoes. The store is a fairly new one here in Savannah, it is known for it's infamous selection of "band t-shirts", which usually draws the local customers in. Customers can sell their clothing to the store, however items are very carefully looked over and often rejected. The store manager, Jessie, is very picky about who can work there. Sales associates must know the vintage merchandise and be able to carry the vintage feel throughout the store. While the store has a great atmosphere and selection, I have to say that a lot of the items are over priced for used clothing.
