Story

Frances May is a directional men's and women's boutique located in Portland, Oregon. The business is a joint venture between grandmother, Connie Codding and granddaughter, Pamela Baker-Miller. The name for the shop was inspired by Connie's mother, Frances May, who was a school teacher and influenced the store's branding in the form of manilla elementary school flash cards and library slips.

Founded in 2008 with Pamela and first FM employee, Ashley, at the helm, the brand began curating select women's products and quickly expanded into menswear in the Fall of 2009 due to customer inquiries and enthusiasm. Frances May's approach is both personal and aspirational and has built a reputation on stocking hard-to-find goods from both established and up-and-coming, independent designers. In November of 2014, Frances May relocated one door down to a vintage rug shop, with more (much needed) space, including offices and a photo studio. Now we are a team of 7 holding it down at the store, creating content for the web, shipping out your packages and providing free astrology advice.

Nice place to get clothing carries a small selection of sizes so if you see it and want it, better buy it!

A friend recommended Frances May. I have two daughters getting married in the same year and I hadn't found anything that worked. I went into Frances May and found a perfect dress for each of the weddings. I couldn't be more pleased. Thank you for having such a great selection. What a pleasure to shop at Frances May!

A perfectly curated boutique in Portland's West End. You'll find only the best of the best in this shop. The staff is super helpful, and the styles are to do for!

An amazing boutique. Pam has a great eye for cool clothing and I always find something in here that I want to buy, which can be troublesome a lot of times.
