About Curve Conscious:
Curve Conscious, recently named one of the best women’s boutiques in Philadelphia by Philly.com, is more than just the city’s first plus-size resale store. Owner, Adrienne Ray, has turned her Brewerytown boutique into a space that celebrates the diverse shapes and sizes of its customers while also promoting sustainable fashion at friendly prices. Adrienne graduated from Temple University and worked in advertising as a copywriter for a decade before opening Curve Conscious in 2016. Since then, her mission has been to provide experiences the plus-size community has often been left out of, like a welcoming environment to shop for stylish items at reasonable prices. At Curve Conscious you’ll find gently used apparel, shoes and accessories from familiar brands like Lane Bryant, Ashley Stewart, Eloquii, Torrid, Forever 21+ and more.
