Although resale may be a household word today, 32 years ago it was a very well-kept secret. When entrepreneurs Jan Kennedy and Nancy Ungerman introduced the concept of the resale of fine, closet-bound clothes to the “rich and famous” of Dallas society, anonymity was a must!

In the ’70s, Clotheshorse Anonymous made an intentional play on the essential word - anonymous. The original consignees preferred to remain nameless and were discretely identified by a personal ID number. Today, the ranks of Clotheshorse consignees have grown to over 20,000. Clothes-conscious, money-smart women are proud to be part of this economically savvy, ecologically friendly fashion experience, consigning their clothes, shopping the ever-changing racks and voting Clotheshorse to the top of the “Best” lists.  The “brain child” launched by two housewives, who wanted to be financially independent, has become a multi-million-dollar producer.

The Clotheshorse Anonymous team owes its continued existence to  complementary and synergistically overlapping talents. The associates are knowledgeable with exceptional people skills, relating well with both consignees and shoppers.

Jan Kennedy, after the 2002 retirement of Nancy Ungerman, continues the tradition of excellence for which their 29 year partnership is famous.

Clotheshorse has become an institution which today attracts clients worldwide. This is often illustrated when carloads of foreign visitors arrive at the store saying, “We heard about you in...”
