Budgeting for high end quality design fashion labels has never been easier credit to the Take 2 Markets opening its doors in Melbourne.in June 2007.
With the harsh state of the economy forcing many Australians into tight budgets, shoppers are excited by the possibility of finding designer fashion labels at bargain prices.
Take 2 Markets Owner Rina Chia said, "We have stallholders selling top brand garments, some of which have not been worn at all; at 50-80% off the price that one would have to pay in a department store or boutique."
Mainstream labels and vintage garments are also available from stallholders including shoes and accessories, in addition to selection of new merchandise from local designers.
The emphasis of Take 2 Markets is on value and quality and as such conditions require stallholders to provide descriptions of items for sale prior to being offered a stall.
"At Take 2 Markets the focus is on quality rather than quantity and I encourage women to seek out the better pieces in their wardrobe so they can get good money for their clothes by selling at Take 2”, said Ms Chia.
Accountant and regular shopper at Take 2 Kate Garland acknowledges that prices for desirable labels make them often unattainable to the average wage earner.
“Dressing like a princess on a working girl’s budget is hard to achieve, you don't need a lot of pieces to dress rich, only a few that are interchangeable and superior quality,” said Ms Garland.
"Women are getting very savvy by buying recycled clothing and using what they have already got, so there is less demand for cheap imported garments”, said Ms Chia.
As the economy drives society to become more astute with budgeting, Take 2 is seizing the opportunity to provide an outlet for shoppers to have the high quality goods without causing financial ruin.
“Second hand is definitely not second best anymore”, said Ms Chia.
