I am not going to lie, but it felt like music to my ears, when I discovered that @modcloth was opening it’s third brick-and-mortar store in DC. I might have at least a couple hundred times in my lifetime wished for one in my neighborhood and when I found out about this exciting with and ‘E’ news, I had to say YES to the grand opening invite.
A little about MODCLOTH
In case you did not know, MODCLOTH is an American online retailer of india vintage-inspired clothing, that was bought over my Walmart a little over a year ago. When I say vintage I don’t mean old or second hand, fashion that is inspired from the era dating 1020’s-1940’s but is made with a modern interpretation, is what I am referring to and ModCloth definitely speaks the language of vintage-inspired.
Until now there were only two FitShops- one in Austin and the second one in San Francisco, but DC just got luckier past weekend, with ModCloth opening it’s third one in The Shaw neighborhood. The colorful wall murals, the furniture, the clothes, the ambience- everything screamed vintage-y and happy about the store.

A little about how the FitShop model works
ModCloth FitShop is not like your regular retail shop where you walk in, scour around and leave with shopping bags. This is more like an IRL-virtual-store: a marketplace where you can touch and try the samples the online store carries, but you can’t actually walk out with them. You can book an appointment but walk-ins are welcome too. How this model operates is:
Shop around– Note the styles you want to try on.
Try it on– A ModStylist will set up your fitting room with your preferred styles and sizes.
Place your order– Pay in store with a credit card or Paypal ( no cash allowed ), express shipping is on the house.
Not yet ready to commit– If you are still in two minds about your fitting room pieces, a ModStylist can create you a Wishlist and save all your items under that list for your to review and order later.
Return policy– Changed your mind, print the free-shipping return label available online and drop it off at your nearest USPS.
I created my own Wishlist and pumped to be sharing looks with you soon. You can create your own Wishlist and even get 15% off, when you sign up HERE .
Congratulations to Stephanie of The Style Safari, she is the featured blogger of the week.
Now it is your turn to share your favorite looks and styles.
