ABOUT Dress Best For Less: Dress Best For Less (DBFL) was formed in 1982 by a group of forward-thinking Piedmont parents who decided to support the schools by collecting donated household items and clothing to sell to the community, the group was given an unused room at Havens School and grew quickly to form a successful nonprofit, Dress Best for Less.
With a storefront on Lakeshore Avenue and a marking room on Magnolia Ave across from PHS, DBFL offers affordable fine vintage and gently used clothing and decor. Residents can support DBFL by donating quality items at the Marking Room at 799 Magnolia Ave and by shopping at 3411 Lakeshore Avenue
