The Isenberg Professional Wardrobe Closet initiative is open for the Spring 2025 semester. You can visit the closet to browse our collection of free, new and gently-used items!

The Isenberg Professional Wardrobe Closet is offered through the Office of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB), and is housed within the Office of Career Success (OCS) on the second floor, in Suite N207 of the Business Innovation Hub.

Hours of Operation: February 3 - May 16, 2025
Monday – Thursday
9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.: By appointment only
12:45 p.m. - 1:45 p.m.: Drop-in to OCS, no appointment necessary
2:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.: By appointment only (last appointment at 4 p.m.)
Friday
9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.: Drop-in to OCS, no appointment necessary

Please Note:

  • During an appointment, you can expect to have support from trained student staff while searching for and trying on items in a safe, clean, and private space.
  • Students can select one item in each clothing category from the Isenberg Professional Wardrobe Closet that is yours to keep—at no cost!
  • All appointments, including the last one at 4:00 p.m., will conclude by 4:30 p.m. 

The Isenberg Professional Wardrobe Closet cannot guarantee the availability of all sizes and types of items. Inventory is dependent on donations. Members of DEIB try to keep the site as up-to-date as possible, but there may be some differences in item availability between the online site and your visit to the closet. 

At this time, DEIB is not prepared to serve non-Isenberg students. Our capacity is limited.  Members of DEIB are actively looking at options to be able to assist all UMass Amherst students in the foreseeable future, but that is not yet within our scope.

Making a good impression and feeling confident as you navigate your professional journey is one of the most important things you can do to stand out! Dressing for success can make a huge difference and the Isenberg Professional Wardrobe Closet can help you look and feel your best. 

"It’s not about the fancy clothes or the popular name brand. It’s about feeling good about yourself and choosing clothing that reflects who you are." - Jesenia Minier-Jennings, Assistant Dean
