Today is the last day for The Back of the Closet, and they invite you to come by and wish them a happy retirement after nearly 40 years in the consignment business in Metropolis.
Martha and Jill issued a statement via social media, expressing their heartfelt gratitude for having this business for so long. They want to thank their customers, associates, and most importantly, their consignors. They are proud of the reputation they have built for offering quality merchandise over the years, which has been made possible by the community.
They shared that they have heard so many stories while standing behind their red countertop, from helping with outfits for parties, weddings, or graduations to simply being part of a shopping experience. It was always the people in their store that kept the doors open for so long, and that is what they will miss the most.
Their original goal was to open a store that served women in need of affordable attire with expensive dreams. They have witnessed those dreams come true over the years. Martha and Jill closed their message by saying they have loved every moment of this journey and hope you will stop by to see them one last time. After over 40 years of business in Metropolis, you can find them at 205 West 6th Street.
