The Clothes Secret

A family-run business with deep roots in Old Ottawa South. Owner Valerie MacIntosh grew up in old Ottawa South, so it's not surprising that this was her first-choice location when she decided to open her own small business. Consignment shopping and the influence of the 'green' movement were growing steadily; Valerie recognized a great business opportunity and chose her old neighbourhood as the place to establish The Clothes Secret. Now, 23 years later, Valerie has been joined in the business by her husband, Yves Pepin, and daughters Chelsea and Nathalie. Come by and meet the family, and we will introduce you to everything The Clothes Secret has to offer.
