Dear Confashion: Re-selling My Gowns



Q: I have many evening gowns that are in excellent condition, but I think its time for me to say goodbye..i get invited to many weddings so I have many evening gowns that I want to re-cycle i.e sell at a good price. Is there a place that I can do this?

Many thanks,
Dina al-Baijan

A: I have the same dilemma too! And honestly I'm not sure if there is such a place in Kuwait where it buys evening gowns at a good price. I know a place where you can donate them for charity. If you happen to know of such service, please do share in the comments sections. Thank you.

I know someone who sold her wedding dress after she got divorced but i am not sure where...

anyways why don't you girls try ChillPillBOx.com? She has a sale corner and i am already putting stuff up there for sale... i don't believe she ever sold an evening gown before but you could try and be the first? I have several evening dresses that go way back and i know that i won't be wearing them again! Some people do not mind if the dress was in a good condition or worn once...

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

Sephora Opening Soon At The Avenues II

Beauty Junkies rejoice! The famous retailer of perfumes and cosmetics and the leading beauty chain in Europe and US, Sephora , will be opening soon at The Avenues Phase II. Personally, I like Sephora not only because of its tempting cosmetic selection, but mainly because I don't feel pressured by sales associates to buy stuff that I don't really need. I can actually touch and try the products without having the sales associate stalking me around and giving me some unnecessary comments about my skin/make-up. I think Sephora will make it big here if it sells its high-end cosmetics which are unavailable at other beauty stores/pharmacies in Kuwait. Does anyone have any product recommendations or favorites?
