Since Harpers opened its doors in 1926, the goal has been to provide our customers and our community with the exceptional service and offer the best selection of clothing and accessories in central Pennsylvania. A big part of that commitment is a policy of extraordinary customer service provided by our personable and experienced staff and personal stylists. Custom alterations by our team of seasoned in-house tailors are another part of our rich tradition. We believe in treating our customers like friends. That’s not typical, but neither is Harpers. Harpers was founded in a different era, before the rise of chain stores and mass merchandising, which made every store start to look and feel the same. We stay true to our specialty store tradition by hand-selecting every accessory and piece of apparel that we showcase in the store. Our buying team searches markets worldwide for fashion that meet our standards of quality, style, and value. We strive to offer exclusive fashion — apparel that lasts — and we are continually adding more American-made designer lines to our in-store collection.
