The Scene – This sprawling addition to the Broadway fashion scene buys and sells cheap. The beneficiaries of this low-end practice are clientele who don't want to dump a ton of cash on a one-night getup. Red Light's sections are tidily and logically organized and easy to navigate--women's dresses are sorted chronologically or by genre ("1930s" or "Hawaiian"). Wearable wall displays include a revered sweatshirt from the 1962 World's Fair in Seattle.

Fun place
by kee22
I haven't gotten a lot of things from here..I agree with the previous reviewer, the prices are kind of high...but it's a great place to get costumes or just browse and have fun putting on hats and weird looking vintage clothes.
- Pros: Vinage clothes, fun place
- Cons: Kind of expensive

One of the best....
by johnnybyerly
The Red Light has been a standard for getting your cool duds. Its been around for a long time (at least the UDistrict store has) and is one of the best places to find the funky cool clothing. The customer service ain't so good, lots of poser youngsters working there, offering you pennies for your good clothes when you want to sell, but overall its one of the better stores in Seattle.
- Pros: Good Funky Clothing, Good Location, fair prices
- Cons: employee attitudes, low buying offers
