PASSion For Fashion
Welcome to PASSion for Fashion - our store with preloved closet treasures. Our mission is to provide meaningful employment opportunities for autistic adults, empowering them to take charge and showcase their talents.
Here, our team members are at the heart of the action—TCB (taking care of business;)). They manage every aspect of our operations, from curating and preparing fashion items to modeling, running the online store, and delivering customer service.
Every purchase you make supports our social enterprise, directly funding wages and creating more opportunities for our members to thrive.

Condition Guide

Mint
Like-new magic! This piece has barely (if ever) seen daylight and hasn't been altered—it's practically fresh off the rack.
-
![]()
Excellent
Looking sharp! Worn a handful of times, maybe, but still strutting its stuff with no visible flaws. Time might've softened it a bit, but it’s aging gracefully.

Good
Still charming! May have a tiny stain or a little fabric wear here or there, but nothing too dramatic. Think of it as a well-loved favorite with character
-
![]()
Fair
A little rough around the edges. Visible stains or fabric wear give it a story to tell. Some issues might be fixed, others not quite—but it still has flair.

As Is
It seen better days. With permanent stains or damage, it’s not ready (yet!) for the runway—but it could shine with a bit of love and some (TLC) Tender Loving Care.
