Introducing the Curvy Corner Thrift Rack at The Curvy Corner Boutique!

Updated: Nov 14

We're so excited to announce a brand-new addition to our Curvy Corner Boutique in Port Jefferson, NY — the Curvy Corner Thrift, brought to you by Ivory & Main!


You’ve been asking for more ways to shop sustainably and stylishly, and we listened. This new section of our store will be dedicated to pre-loved plus-size fashion, giving beautiful clothes a second life while helping curvy women find fabulous pieces at a fraction of the price.


And the best part? We’re now accepting your pieces!

How It Works


We’re officially collecting donations and buy-backs for our new thrift section! We’re looking for sizes 1X–4X (we’ll consider an XL if the cut runs generous).


You can bring in up to 15 pieces at a time, and our team will review each item with you. For every approved piece, we’ll buy it outright, so you can earn cash or store credit right on the spot!


Drop-off days are Mondays and Fridays 12 -4 pm, and Sundays 12-3 pm, each week at our Port Jefferson location.

Styles We Love


Bring your season-appropriate pieces and accessories — we’re curating a collection that feels as fabulous as everything else at Ivory & Main.


  • Some of our favorite finds include:

  • Statement Tops

  • Dresses (non-formal)

  • Jackets & Blazers

  • Denim

  • Handbags

  • Scarves & Belts

  • Jewelry & Accessories

  • Shoes (sizes 8+ or wide width for boots)


We’re also happily accepting accessories to complete those perfect looks!

We’re all about quality and style that reflects the Ivory & Main vibe! Here are a few labels we’re extra excited to see:

  • Eloquii

  • City Chic

  • Good American

  • Anthropologie Plus

  • ASOS Curve

  • Torrid

  • Universal Standard

Plus, we love other boutique and designer labels that fit that signature Ivory & Main flair and quality.

  • Heavily worn or damaged items

  • Fast fashion brands like Shein, Temu, and Wish

  • Basic items (plain tees, tanks, leggings)
