About

My name is Sarah Bibb and I design about 80% of what we carry in the store.

We have our own production facility right in the back of the store… how’s that for local! We make the most beautiful and functional slips, dresses, tops, skirts and pants. Folly carries handmade jewelry and accessories and a few select lines to round out our collection. Since we make so much of the clothing, expect a full service experience with attention to fit and lifestyle.

Store Hours:
tuesday – saturday: 10-6 
sunday – monday: closed

After nearly 14 years in the nw of portland, folly has moved to ne fremont street in the beautiful beaumont neighborhood! Thank you for caring where you shop and supporting this tiny shop. we love making clothing you love to wear!

Shop online if you are out of town. And don’t be shy about asking questions… we love to problem solve and aim to give you a full service experience whether in person or online.

xoox,

Sarah


P.S. Folly opened in 2008 and over the years we have received tons of very good press. Look below to read all about it!
