POTSDAM -- A Potsdam woman has purchased clothing store Dress Code from a Plattsburgh business owner and is renaming it Frill & Fly Apparel.

“It (business ownership) is a wonderful opportunity with great benefits but it also comes with a lot of responsibility,” according to owner Tiffany Damon.

Damon says she became the owner on June 1 after managing and running it since it opened last summer.

“I was basically running it already…and the previous owner did not end up having as much time to dedicate to this store as she had previously thought, Damon said.

Frill & Fly Apparel, 16 Market St., will continue to offer brand name clothing for men and women through consignors. Damon estimated that she has nearly 100 consignors.

“We are in need men’s clothing and plus sizes for men and women,” she said.

Other than clothing, customers can find a wide variety of accessories, purses, shoes and more. They do not carry children’s clothing.

There are also plans to add artwork to the store that would be for decoration purposes; but also can be purchased.

“I have talked with several local artists about displaying their work into the store...so that is something I am planning to do in the future,” she said.

Damon has added a coffee nook to the store for people to enjoy while browsing. She says she added many plants to the store to liven it up.

The store will have a table set up and will un specials during the upcoming Potsdam Summer Festival July 9-11.

The best place to find store deals, according to Damon, is on their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Frill-Fly-Apparel/909063012465369?fref=ts.

Damon is the only employee and offers hours Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. until 6 p.m. To contact her at the store, call 261-4668.
