Partnerships should also extend to the online world. Have you considered also selling the goods through Amazon or eBay?
How about promoting the site through ads for the goods on Craigslist? If you can link right back to the site to an add to cart function you could pick up some easy sales that way. What do you know about the site's customers? Like Justin said, the goods seem to belong in a boutique, so who are the people who are buying these things? How much do they make, what cars do they drive, where do they spend their vacations? If you could get access to that kind of data you could market directly to the groups of people that already buy the goods.
