Oxfam’s eight "boutiques" are higher-end shops that sell some of the best, handpicked items in an uncluttered, carefully arranged shop. “We get men’s designer suits, Bottega Veneta bags, great shoes from Prada to Gucci to Jimmy Choo,” says Tim Quye, who works in the shop. He remembers one vintage Yves Saint Laurent crystal dress that was donated and eventually sold at auction. If you’re in the market for a new winter coat, good news: they have one on sale, by APC, for ツ」90. In the days before charity shops wised up to designer prices, and this was just a standard Oxfam shop, I once picked up a Louis Vuitton bag here for ツ」20 (I felt so guilty about my “luck” I returned it the next day – I think they resold it for ツ」100).
