MOSES LAKE — There’s a new source for clothing in town. Angie’s Apparel opened three months ago, according to owner Angie Delgado, and had its Chamber of Commerce ribbon-cutting Thursday.
Angie’s Apparel operates on a consignment basis, Delgado said.
“We’re kind of like Buy-Sell-Trade,” Delgado said. “We could buy your clothes, you can trade yours for clothes that I have, or just buy.”
Angie’s Apparel is located at 310 S., Balsam St. Ste. E, across from the Moses Lake Civic Center. The shop is upstairs in the back, so it’s not immediately visible from the street.
Delgado, a native of Royal City, said she carries clothing for both men and women of all sizes, from extra small to 3X. She’s especially interested in getting more plus-size clothing in, she said.
Angie’s Apparel is open 12-5 p.m. Wednesday through Friday and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
Her goal is to branch out into a wider variety of clothing, Delgado said.
“I would like to make it a one-stop shop for families,” she said. “Maybe getting into newborns, younger kids, toddlers and teenagers.”
