Dodo Outfit

Our shop is tucked away in the KPK Complex at number six. If you’ve ever walked through there, you know it can be a bit of a maze, but we like our little corner. Dodo Outfit started because we just wanted to sell clothes that people actually want to wear every day. We spend a lot of time unpacking boxes and hanging things up on the racks. The lighting in the complex isn't always the brightest, so we try to keep our space looking as neat as possible so the colors of the fabric stand out. It’s a lot of folding and re-folding, especially after a busy afternoon when everyone’s been looking through the sizes. We don’t do big fancy fashion shows or anything like that. We just pick out stuff that looks good and feels like it’ll last more than a few washes. Sometimes the air conditioner acts up, but we just open the door and keep going. Customers usually stop by for a chat while they’re browsing, which makes the day go by a lot faster. We keep a notebook behind the counter to track what people are asking for so we know what to get next time the suppliers come around. It’s just a regular clothing shop run by people who like clothes, and being in the KPK Complex feels like home for us now.
