Just in time for Halloween, Lafayette's funhouse-style costume shop sells off inventory

By ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana Business Editor​ ​ ​

Good Monday morning, Acadiana. Let's get down to business real quick to start the final week of the summer.

Old Vogue costume shop in downtown Lafayette has served as a space for grownups to play dress up for about 50 years, the last 30 of those at 422 Jefferson St. Earlier this year, Lafayette artist Tanya Falgout purchased the business with the intention of slowly selling off inventory to transform the two-story space into an art gallery and teaching operation.

The volume of costumes — some that are about 100 years old — have only been rented. Now they are for sale. Some of them are wild.  

You can read the story here.   

Have a great day and see you back here Tuesday morning.
