OK, so if you haven't checked it out, you HAVE to go in the next two weeks.
Odd's Costume Rental Closing Sale
231 W 29th St Third Fl
10am to 4pm Monday - Friday
CASH ONLY
I'm sure a good deal of Motherboarders already know about this, since it's been being passed around on the DL for several weeks...
However, we hadn't gone until this week, because of the hours (we're working during business hours) and we figured everything had been picked over...
But now, we're MAKING time for long lunches when we can until they finally close. They have SO MUCH STUFF, and the prices are ridiculous.
Yesterday I could only spend about 20 minutes there and I got an 80s ladybug print tuxedo jacket (holy shoulderpads) for $15, a 60's psychedelic print velvet zip-up for $10, and a pair of 80s Italian jeans with grommets and leather lace for $15.
Today we went together and concentrated on the period clothing and more "big production" stuff.
The highlights for today were a GORGEOUS Louis XVI waistcoat for $75 and a piece of body armor attributed to Hal George and a production of "Orpheus in the Underworld" for $45.
They are talking about extending it, but for now their last day open will be July 2nd.
Enjoy!
