“clothing and accessories for our everyday adventures and momentous occasions.”

Amy Finegold:

Ever since I was young, I experienced a rush of adrenaline when stepping into a clothing store. My passion for retail, clothing, and sales led me to choose it as a career path while studying French and Art History at Tufts University. I began as a junior in college at the Gap, where all good sales associates learn to fold. After graduating, I chose to work at specialty boutiques that would expose me to the different aspects of sales, buying, and owning a small business. From Jasmine Sola, to Serenella, Country Road, Louis Boston, and Taste Boutique, I honed my skills and learned from some of the most respected owners and managers in the business.

When I married my husband in 2002, I left Newbury Street behind to settle into the suburb of his hometown of Andover, MA. There I found a welcoming community, but a lack of shopping opportunities. My husband encouraged me to act on my dreams, and I opened dresscode in September of 2004. That was a busy and exciting time, as our first daughter, Ava, had been born the year before. Ella was born in 2005, and Max was born a good deal later in 2012. Throughout the years, we have built a loyal clientele, won numerous awards, and expanded the space of our store.

Today we continue to bring in unique, yet classic and quality designers that stand the test of time. We love to personally style each of our customers. dresscode is an experience, not just a store.
