The Rebirth of Resale 

Find out why secondhand is having a second coming.

resale is overwhelming.

Endless racks. No context. No care.

You’re left sorting through fast-fashion clutter instead of discovering pieces that feel uniquely like you. What we call the “Religion of Resale” and it’s everything we want to transcend.

Not only do we love to curate the finest new and gently used modern, novelty, and vintage fashion with you in mind, but we also create a customer experience that transforms the very essence of secondhand shopping.

Our real-time revelations bring you affordable prices within a luxurious BYO lounge, featuring new and pre-loved furniture, decor, clothing, and accessories that have been meticulously arranged to capture your individual style.

We’re on a mission to transcend the religion of resale. Too often, secondhand shopping feels less like salvation and more like penance. Endless racks and cluttered shelves make shopping feel like a task. At Born Again Consignment Parlor, we believe shopping should be an experience. Not only do we lovingly curate the finest new and gently-used modern, vintage, and novelty pieces, we take just as much pride in delivering a customer experience that feels nothing short of paradise.

Our real-time revelations deliver affordable prices within a luxurious BYOB lounge, where women’s and men’s fashion, home décor, and unique gifts are reborn, redeemed, and ready for their next calling. 

Stop, Shop,
Sip for a spell.

A local destination, unique retail finds, and a BYOB lounge,all here to exceed your expectations, draw your curiosity, and revive you from the religion of retail.

Truths we hold dear about style, sustainability, and the joy of discovery.

Convenient Consignment

Consignment shouldn’t require a pilgrimage to the city's outskirts. Our flagship parlor is rooted just steps from downtown, nestled near Printers Row and easily accessible from CTA ‘L’ lines, Metra routes, and nearby hotels.

Whether you’re a local on a lunch break or a traveler exploring the city, discovering thoughtfully curated resale is no longer an all-day affair. The hunt begins (and ends) right here. Open in Google Maps

Sip & Shop Lounge

Born Again is more than a shop. It’s a place to linger.

Our flagship doubles as a cozy BYOB lounge and gathering space, inviting you to sip, settle in, and explore at your own pace. Bring a friend, unwind solo, or work with a stylist while you browse. From dressing rooms to lounge seating, we’ve created room to truly try before you buy. Whether that means slipping into a jacket or living with a piece of furniture for a moment before taking it home.

Exclusive, Yet Inclusive 

Great style isn’t defined by price; it’s defined by intention. From a $500 designer find to a $5 everyday favorite, our collection spans price points, sizes, and aesthetics.

Every piece is hand-selected to reflect individuality, authenticity, and responsible consumption. Like our community, the brands and items we carry celebrate self-expression over excess, and meaning over mass production.
