Velvet Plum Vintage Closes Doors

Velvet Plum Vintage is closing its Noblesville doors for good on July 15th, crushed by downtown road construction that killed foot traffic and slashed sales to as low as $15 a day. Despite social media pushes and consignment agreements that prevent discounts, the store couldn’t compete with nearby businesses that adapted with Sunday specials. While the city admits construction played a role, officials note the area’s storefronts are still selling fast — including the Velvet Plum spot, soon to be a new bar and lounge. But the owner’s story isn’t over: her Connor Street vintage shop remains open, and her consignment business is relocating to a massive 30,000-square-foot space in Indy, aiming to become the Midwest’s largest consignment shop.
