The Clothes Secret

The Clothes Secret is Ottawa’s top women’s consignment shop, located in the heart of Old Ottawa South. We’ve earned that reputation because – simply put – we carry the widest range of clothing labels that you like to buy, at the very best prices.

Did I mention, they have hundreds of new pieces that hit the racks every week, so there is always something fresh to see! Shop and they will help you find just what you’ve been looking for – incredible selection, bargain prices, and best of all, personal service !

The Clothes Secret is located at 1136 Bank St., just a short walk south of the new Lansdowne Park and the home of the Red Blacks at TD Place. The major intersection is Sunnyside and Bank Streets; we are two blocks down on the west side, between Hopewell and Glen Avenue.

” Shopping at the clothes secret is always such a blast! My mum and I love to stop in when we are in the area. The store always has a great mix of sizes, styles, and luxury to more affordable brands. Most pieces are quite reasonably priced especially compared to other consignment shops I’ve been to, plus they have amazing sales during the year if you’re on a budget! I haven’t had any experience selling my pieces, however I would definitely recommend stopping in to shop as the staff are always very welcoming and warm and provide great service! ”

” My consigning experience made easy and fun, every time. Such an easy and remarkable process. Everyone is so very friendly and helpful. The store is adorable and has a huge selection and variety of styles, sizes and trends. ”

I have been trying to get a chance to visit this second hand clothing store for ages! Finally visited yesterday. Stock levels are through the roof, I would have needed a lot more time to rummage in order to find a treasure. I will plan my next visit accordingly 🙂. The prices are somewhat high, but the brands I saw did justify the price in most cases. A lot of clothes in very good condition from top brands like Max Mara, Vince, Tristan, Free People, Rag and Bone, Theory and Zara. One rack was all autumn styles, a unique way of organizing. Lots of cashmere! Tons of footwear! The staff member who said hello was present and friendly, but left me to look around as is appropriate for a thrift store.

I was visiting Ottawa and stopped here by accident! Found some gems that I know I’ll have forever. Staff were lovely and the whole shopping experience was great! Great sales too.

Staff is wonderful and the layout is easy to shop. The selection seems good but I've been a couple times and only found one thing (I'm a thirty-something usually size M/L with casual and eclectic style taste, for some context). Worth returning though.
