Queen Anne’s Pink Ginger to Close
By Seattle Mag April 4, 2013
** Pink Ginger has been saved! Find it as store-within-a-store in Ballard Home Comforts on Ballard Ave. late May/early June. More in for here.
Sad news for plus size shoppers and the small, but cute, corner of Queen Anne retail on and around W. Crockett St. (Rhinestone Rosie’s and Meadow)—Pink Ginger is closing at the end of the month.
Owner Tina Christou laments a lack of foot traffic for the decision, which is a shame because I can’t think of another locally owned boutique who carries the same on-trend and affordable clothing in the range of sizes (2-24) that she carries. It’s a sad loss.
Stop in and shop while you can. You’ll be glad you did.
