Overview

Luxury Garage Sale operates a curated designer-brand consignment and resale business selling new and used designer and vintage wardrobe items both online and in physical stores. The company sells through four retail channels: boutiques in Chicago and Dallas, an e-commerce website (luxurygaragesale.com), several online marketplaces, and pop-up shops. Co‑founded in 2011 by Brielle Buchberg and Lindsay Segal, LGS emphasizes a curated buying and selling experience for women’s fashion. In 2015 the company opened two new storefronts, moved into a 25,000 square foot flagship location in downtown Chicago and grew its staff to 85 employees. The business plans to expand its product offering, open new locations and enhance its online presence. The company recently completed a financing to support those growth initiatives. Luxury Garage Sale is a Chicago-based fashion startup founded in 2010 by Lindsay Segal that provides a curated and luxe buying and selling option in the $16 billion women's fashion resale market. The company offers consigning and shopping across a retail boutique, its website (luxurygaragesale.com), an eBay store, and pop-up shops around the country. Luxury Garage Sale secured $1.5M in seed funding led by Chicago Ventures with participation from angels Brian Spaly and Elle Bruno of Trunk Club, Paul Lee, and Lon Chow of Apex Venture Partners. In conjunction with the funding, Brian Spaly joined the company's board of directors. The company intends to use the funds to expand operations in Chicago and accelerate expansion to other markets, beginning with a planned launch in Dallas in the spring.
