Resale Therapy
106 Pleasant St.
Weymouth, MA 02190

In fact, the entire back half of the store is dedicated to these dresses. And while you might feel you're paying a premium price for the gowns, the selection is unmatched. Most of these could pass for unworn items, and the cost is still better than what you'll find in Boston vintage shops. The second thing Resale Therapy is known for is its vintage jewelry collection. And here you'll definitely see some savings from the Boston estate jewelry prices. Thirdly, the shop has a stellar collection of vintage purses, all beautifully maintained and wonderfully unique.
