DENVER - Dress for Success Denver's Bring Your Own Bag boutique sale takes place on Friday and Saturday at Djuna on Broadway and Ninth Avenue.
The mission of Dress for Success is to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life. Dress for Success serves clients by referral only, and women must have an interview scheduled before receiving clothing.
Almost 5,000 organizations throughout the world send women to Dress for Success for professional apparel and career development services. On her initial visit, a woman receives a suit appropriate for the industry in which she is interviewing and, if available, accessories. After a woman finds a job, she returns to Dress for Success for additional clothing that can be mixed and matched to make several outfits, providing her with the foundation for a professional wardrobe.
Denver's own Djuna donates the space every year, and then area stores donate clothing, household goods, shoes and accessories. Those items are deeply discounted - some up to 90 percent off.
The event takes place on Friday from 6 to 9 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
