, it will bring back thousands of results, so use the filter,” says Becky Barnes, a sustainable stylist from Bristol, who has been buying exclusively pre-owned clothes since 2017. “You can usually select brand, fabric, length, size – the filtering is more sophisticated than on Vinted.” There are brand new items for sale, too – if you only want pre-owned clothes, select “used”.
Use a targeted approach. Know the brands you like. Go to their stores and try on a few things to see how they look Monica Buchan-Ng, head of knowledge exchange at the Centre for Sustainable Fashion, based at London College of Fashion, has a one-in, one-out policy for clothes in her own wardrobe, so new purchases are carefully chosen. She advises a targeted approach. “Know the brands you like and how you fit and look in them. Go to their stores, try on a few things, see what size fits you,” she says.
“I recommend shopping out of season to beat the crowds and get the best price,” says Kirsty Keoghan, the global general manager of fashion at eBay. For example, look for your dream wool coat in the height of summer. Barnes says: “That’s where you’re going to save the most money; if nobody’s after that piece and there’s no demand for it, you can perhaps drive down the price.”Ask the seller plenty of questions before buying.
