An absolutely Flawless way to both save and make money

Would you like to boost your wardrobe without spending a small fortune? Well thanks to an idea originally from the States - newly arrived on the Cote d'Azur, you can...

Flawless is a dress agency based in Roquefort les Pins, where women can sell or donate their gently worn clothes and accessories. Most of the clients buy something new and at the same time sell something they no longer wear, so it balances out rather nicely!

The two friends who run the business, Nancy and Sophie, take a commission from the sales price. From this (and other events) they donate to a local cancer charity, La Ligue Contre Le Cancer.

Their current stock consists of pieces by top designers and the high street alike, and you can find anything from glamorous bags and belts to big sunglasses and sassy shoes. Obviously the stock changes all the time dependant on what people bring-in, and the seasons of course.

The agency opens its doors once a month (the next one is on Friday May 29th) but you can also arrange private shopping at other times by appointment.

 ‘The lunch parties are great fun and it feels rewarding giving people money from their clothes after the sales, especially if they spend it in shop!' Nancy enthuses.

And as such a fan of fashion, what's your favourite piece of clothing right now? 'Funnily enough an impossibly tight dress that I wore to the launch party of FR2day during the Film Festival!'
