Now, THIS is shopping like millionaire!!! Honey, this store has all the fab items to impress on those occasions where Jacyln Smith simply won't do. I love that the owner, Teresa, will give her honest on take on what suits you, and will even ring you if there's a newly arrived piece with your name on it. Oh, it reminds me of grand days at the "B" stores...Bergdorf, Barneys and Bendel. read more

OMG! I find so many fashion treasures here. Every week there's new fabulous clothes to try on, shoes to lust after, handbags to try - and the jewelry! If you know fashion, then you know the bargains hidden inside this shop. Not sure why I'm even writing this review because I don't want to share...but I do want them to have more consignors. read more

Some of the best selection of designer vintage and resale pieces in BK! Hidden gem The owner is so sweet and personable!

I love shopping here, but hate consigning here. It makes sense that the two go together, just wish there was more transparency (in comparison I love consigning my kid's clothes to Owl Tree). read more

Amazing collection of clothes! Staff is super friendly and nice to talk to. Some amazing pieces for the price!

I live around the block and walk by this place twice a day. Small, understated and quiet, m.a.e. offers vintage and luxury consignment at competitive prices. The shop carries dresses, both casual and dressy which are organized by color. You can find some real gems here. I've gotten lucky with high end skirts and sweaters. My next goal is to check out the Jean section in the front of the store My next goal is to check out the jean section in the front of the store. They are not as easily accessible as they are folded closet style and not hung like the rest of the clothes. Along the left side of the shop are shoes-any type you wish. There are also accessories including designer bags and sunglasses, scarves, jewelry. The only downside to this consignment shop is that you must make an appointment online to bring him clothes that you'd like to consign. Without knowing this I brought in several spring formal dresses and was turned away because I have not made an appointment and was told they were not accepting dresses at that time because they were at capacity (March). This is a cute shop to stop in on a Saturday morning and I look forward to being back after COVID! read more

Just scored this marvelous marcasite ring! The owner, Teresa, is very sweet. She called me "Cinderella" because the ring hadn't fit anyone else. read more

m.a.e. Vintage and Luxury Consignment Shop - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Went in here today to inquire how the shop worked, what an arrogant sales associate!

Beautiful well organized store, easy to find everything. Nice affordable Vintage clothes. I got my friend a very pretty top for her birthday, she loved it. read more

You know how when you find that shop with such great stuff you almost don't want to tell anyone because they might snag the best stuff when you're not there? Okay, I shouldn't tell my secret, but since I live in California but spend a lot of time in New York, I figure it's safe enough. And besides, I want the owner of this amazing treasure to keep it going for a long, long time. m.a.e. is a sweet little shop: on one wall is all designer clothes at inexpensive prices -- I understand it's all consignment, so really reasonably priced. Pucci, Chloe, Chanel, and even some classic Banana Republic thrown in, because it's all about style, too. Then the other wall: GASP. Shoes. Shoes. Shoes. In real girl sizes. Sure, there are size 5's and 6's, but also 8's, 9's and 10's. And oh, did i mention that they are mostly Manolos, Louboutins, Pradas, Cynthia Rowleys, Jimmy Choos... and for a fraction of the price? Yeah. Pretty dreamy. I never thought that I would own a pair of Manolos, but I now have 2 pairs, and for what I would have paid at Macy's for 9 Wests! And then the back wall is handbags and accessories and original artwork for sale... and the counter where the very sweet and friendly (but not overbearing at all) owner rings up your glorious purchases. (Along with the iPod that plays awesome music.) So yeah, the secret's out. I'm usually really good at keeping them, but with m.a.e., I HAD to tell everyone. Not everyone wears a size 9 Manolo Blahnik, right? Uh oh... read more

I both consign and buy from M.A.E. I am a a designer consignment store expert in the NYC/CT area, as I have been doing it for years. I have in recent years decided only to consign with Marci at M.A.E. for two reasons. 1. Although I may get a little bit more money when I consign elsewhere I know the reason why is because things are being priced ethically at M.A.E. People who may otherwise not be able to afford a high end designer will have the opportunity to buy something special. Marci caters to both spectrums of the slope community. It is a inclusive and non-judgemental environment. 2. Although I really do have my own style and know what I want most of the time, Marci and the other people who work there are great stylists, and they cater to all body types. read more

What a gem! This place has a nice collection of shoes, clothing and accessories. Picked up two dresses, two pairs of shoes and a clutch. Not bad at all! Theresa was also super friendly! I am definitely come back to this place soon!! read more

Stumbled upon this gem while walking around the neighborhood. Every brand name I love was in there. Here you can actually finally get a DVF wrap dress and still have money left over for lunch. The lovely lady working was great and I cannot wait to go back. Seriously....quality clothing at phenomenal deals. A true Park Slope treasure. Also- no tax. The price you see is the price! read more

I have found the BEST dresses at this vintage and luxury consignment shop - Name brands like Ralph Lauren and Free People for great prices. I am in the event planning business and have to wear dressy outfits almost daily, M.A.E. is my go -to for a great buy! I also bought my first pair of Manolo Blahniks there! I have worn them over 50 times as they go with everything - you must check this store out! Fashionistas shop your heart out! read more

I try to buy thrift bc its more economical and eco friendly and i have been exploring thrift stores since moving to Brooklyn. I was so peeved that everything in this thrift store was so expensive! They are selling fast fashion brands like Zara or TopShop for the same price you would pay for new! read more

Popped in a couple of times to check out the wares and now I can say I'm not just a browser but also a seller! So far so good, sold a couple of decent pieces and will switch out what's gone unsold for other season appropriate pieces. Marci is great, and I'm super happy to live close by so I can get in and out easily. I may not get as much as I could online, but I love supporting a local business with loyal clientele. read more

I try to buy secondhand as much as possible, and M.A.E. has been a wonderful resource, but for buying and selling. I've found everything from unique office/work clothes to cocktail dresses to jeans here. And I've also sold a few items too. The owner, Lucy, is wonderful and just loves to talk fashion, especially if it's not busy. Her eye is great -- perfectly in tune with the neighborhood. If you are looking for designer items with an edge, this is the place. It's a small shop, but that's also what I like -- Lucy has curated everything so you don't have to wade through racks of junk and old t-shirts. Highly recommended!! read more

This review is long overdue. I have been a customer and partner in M.A.E.'s consignment set up for a couple of years. This is just a gem of a store. I wouldn't call myself an consignment expert but I would spend hours in various high end vintage and consignment stores in Manhattan during my single, free years. M.A.E. is up there. Lucy is the owner and extremely knowledgable, fair, and just easy to chat with. She has a great eye for fashion and great selections of mid to high end designers. Her inventory is extremely organized and she will help you find exactly what you need. As a personal preference I love the size of the store...It's on the smaller side which means that Lucy much choose wisely her consignment choices. Just wonderful. I'm giving 5 star because it covers exactly what I expect in a store like this. read more

My favorite Vintage and luxury re-sale shop in Brooklyn. Easy no pressure shopping and gems abound. The staff is always helpful and friendly. Legendary 'shoe wall' with something for every taste from Manolo to Frye. read more

Overpriced dresses when you can find nice and new dresses at Macy's, White and Black , Marshalls and online stores Overpriced shoes, the newest ones have been barely worn for being obviously uncomfortable; no sign of the sizes, the good ones are too small or too big. Snotty owner with a practiced fake kindness who treats clients like she is doing them favor by letting them in. Her so called no-pushy approach is pretended, she is just emotionless No thanks....I am saving a lot of money by not going there anymore read more

For anyone that even considers consigning with this store WATCH OUT! Marcy the owner told me 50/50 when I brought in my clothes. I did not look at the crude contract she gave me. I ended up with a check for $45. She does not answer her phone ever. I sent her an email. She called me and told me my take was 35%. She is a liar and deceiver. Her items in this store are junk, no designers that I can recognize. She keeps the price way below acceptance. The positive reviews here are bogus - most likely all her friends. read more

I hesitate to tell y'all about this one, lest you snake me for the good stuff... but it's ALL good stuff! Designer labels, oftentimes brand new, marked waaaay below retail. The staff is helpful but not pushy, and they're always spinning my favorite tunes. Always something new, so if you see something you like, grab it; I've had my heart broken more than once by thinking I could come back to buy a piece another day. And the shoes! Oh, the shoes... ~wistful sigh~ read more

I'm a guy and buy a lot of stuff for my wife here, altho sometimes she shops as well, lol. I would recommend this place to everyone if you like good stuff. The owner has a great eye and only takes in what she likes so no matter what the price range you can find something nice since she has such great taste. If you're a guy I'd particularly encourage you to visit if you don't know a lot about fashion and want advice. Especially if you go during non-peak times she'll spend all the time you want discussing different designers, fabrics, matching tops to bottoms, Euro vs. American sizes, all the things us guys need help with! Shop local! read more

I have a chronic vintage shopping addiction, so after imbibing multiple margaritas at Fondo, I staggered down the street to Mae. These ladies were endlessly patient and ridiculously lovely while I tried on half the store. I've only ever had customer service this good at Collections in Bushwick, see my review for the gorgeous Lucy who owns it. Unbelievable lovely surprise in Park Slope or wherever this is, I'm never in this neighborhood. I left with some dope stuff, the pricing is more than reasonable. read more

I'm the harshest critic I know and can honestly say this is the best consignment shop in Brooklyn. I don't know what's better-the clothes or the owner! I love her and the clothes that are there. There is a big selection of clothes, bags, and shoes, for everyone at different price points. This store is truly a gem and I never leave empty handed or disappointed. So...stop reading this and head to M.a.e. already!! read more

Prices are a little high here, but they have a really nice selection of designer stuff. Great for women's dresses, shoes, jeans and bags.

I had a great experience consigning here last year! I was able to sell several items for what felt like a fair price, and I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly everything sold. I'm looking forward to consigning more items at m.a.e. soon! read more

'Gem' is the perfect word for this spot. Such great selection at very fair prices! I got a BCBG dress for $60 and I love it! I get compliments all the time. This is one of those places you can find quality staples, quirky fashion pieces, and timeless style. Friendly service, too! My only request would be that they stock more shoes size 8/8.5. Sadly, we can't all have small feet! read more

I went here for the first time just to briefly look around and ended up purchasing 10 designer items for only around $195, which actually valued between $500-$600. This place is an absolute gem of South Slope and has a great selection of affordable and trendy clothing/shoes/bags/etc. The service is excellent and I HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone who is fashion-forward, but also not trying to put a dent in their wallet. I will 100% be back again :) read more

M.A.E. and Marci are awesome! I bought some Manolo Blahnik shoes for my wife from the owner Marci and it was an excellent experience - over the phone as we live in San Francisco. I highly recommend this shop. read more

I bought a really sweet top for $10 and the collection of items had great prices! There a nice little fitting room to try on the finds. I spot Chanel, Henri Bendel, and Louboutins (might be gone now) But I was there two weeks ago! She is really sweet and has a great store! I look forward to going again this weekend or the next again! The shoes were lovely but for my size 9 feet..only a few shoes not much. read more

Love this store and they just moved one block south into a bigger location, with two dressing rooms and twice the merchandise! They have great stuff - mostly dresses and shoes, but also skirts, sweaters, blouses, purses, sunglasses and some pants. To the reviewers who said that it was expensive, I say, only if your idea of a thrift store is weeding out the stained clothes in the 5$ bin. This place has beautiful vintage pieces, designer pieces and more modestly priced basics - but everything is well below retail and thoughtfully selected. e.g. I got a Ralph Lauren wool shift dress for 60$ and a practically new peasant blouse for $30. Her shoes are fantastic and unusual - I have gorgeous, vintage yellow, wood platform, t-strap sandals for $40 from here. read more

Absolutely amazing experience at this store! Marci is beyond friendly and incredibly helpful. M.A.E offers a wide range of styles and sizes and the prices are well worth it. They also have a wonderful sale section with high end designers I would never expect to see at such affordable prices! A great range of shoes too. Love love love this place and would recommend stopping by to anyone. read more

I love this store! It's very clean and well organized. So far there's a different girl working each time I'm there but they're all helpful and easy to talk to as I'm searching through the racks. I have yet to be disappointed. My only suggestions would be to include a measurement chart for shoes and maybe an increase the amount in more flat shoe options as not all of us ladies can walk in heels. :) read more

As I live in the neighborhood, its my weekend ritual to go see Marci over at M.A.E.'s. I am always finding some wonderful thing for my wardrobe !!!! She has AWESOME stuff !!! Thanks Marci for helping me look Good and well dressed and still with in my budget !!! read more

Nice place with some decent stuff but those on 5th ave are better

Nice selection and very helpful and friendly staff. She even held my baby while I tried things on. I am a fan and will return again for sure. read more

I'm scared that more people will discover this hidden gem, but it's too great not to review. Good prices, excellent customer service and great selection. read more

Agree with the five star reviewers. Sorry for the one person's bad experience and she is coming from the pov of a seller so maybe the incredibly sweet and helpful Marci turns all nasty in that scenario, but if you are simply a person whose great taste exceeds your clothing budget, this is a Great store! read more

This place has a really nice, carefully edited selection of luxury designer shoes (a whole wall of Manolos etc!), a smaller selection handbags (Furla, Tods, etc.), and a really nice mix of clothes ranging from Betsey Johnson to Chanel, etc.. The owner is super friendly too. Highly worth the trip. read more
