The owner of Bride and Gown in Glens
\nFalls has opened a second store, Saratoga
\nCloset in Saratoga Springs.
\nEliza DeRocker opened the store in
\nJuly. It offers high-end, luxury fashion at
\noff-Broadway prices.<\/p>\n

DeRocker graduated from the Fashion
\nInstitute of Technology and worked as a
\nhandbag designer for several labels including
\nChanel, Bebe, and Ralph Lauren before
\nlaunching her own line. Her passion for
\nfashion led to opening the second store,
\nshe said.<\/p>\n

Saratoga Closet, at 38 Van Dam St., carries
\nluxury brands including Gucci, Prada,
\nJimmy Choo and Manolo Blahnik. The store
\nsells tops and pants, dresses and skirts,
\nhandbags and other leather goods, shoes,
\ncoats and jackets, and fine jewelry.
\nSaratoga Closet also features a bridal
\nsection of well-crafted gowns from luxury
\nretailers, although the majority of the
\nbridal line can be found at her Glens Falls
\nshop.<\/p>\n

Margaret Newman creates jewelry for
\nthe store. The 81-year-old has more than
\n10,000 pieces on display. Her jewelry includes
\nprecious gem luxury goods.<\/p>\n

DeRocker sources items from fashion
\nstylists in New York City, where she lived
\nfor 10 years. She also goes to consignment
\nshops to find items.<\/p>\n

Back at her store, DeRocker prices
\neverything to sell. Customers can get a
\ndiscount on luxury items here that they
\ncannot get at other places.
\n“There’s something for everybody here,
\nwhether it’s a $5 J Crew wallet or a $1,000
\npurse,” she said.<\/p>\n

DeRocker has a team she says is very
\nknowledgeable about the fashion industry
\nworking with her at the store. “The key to
\nsuccess is customer service,” DeRocker
\nsaid. Soon, she plans to open another bridal
\nstore in Boston, featuring luxury gowns at deep discounts, similar to what she offers
\nat her Glens Falls location.<\/p>\n

“Most bridal stores only carry three
\nbrands. We carry 85,” she said. Customers
\nwill be able to get a wedding gown for
\nanywhere from $100 to $3,000.<\/p>\n

Hours of operation are Monday and Tuesday,
\n11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Wednesday through
\nFriday, 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.; Saturday, 10
\na.m. to 4 p.m.; and Sunday, noon to 3 p.m.
\nThe phone is 879-5012.<\/p>\n
