Gucci\u2019s Men\u2019s Cruise Collection 2018
\n\t\t\t
\n\t\t\tLookbook Has Arrived
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>
\n\t\t\t\tThe number of people open to selling their used clothes is on the rise as well. The study found there were 52.6 million total sellers last year \u2013 with 69% of those being first time sellers. And the total number of sellers is expected to more than double.
\n\t\t\t\tFashion is no longer about having the trendiest styles. Instead of chasing the latest must-have brands and designs, consumers are now pricing in the environmental footprint of their clothing. Many are choosing secondhand upon the realisation that buying preloved items helps to extend the lifespan of products, reduce unsustainable new production and divert waste from landfills.\t\t\t<\/p>\n

Breaking Up With Fast Fashion Has Been Easier<\/h2>\n

\t\t\t\tNot only are consumers buying secondhand items, which in itself is more eco-friendly as it helps to lengthen the lifespan of products, shoppers are looking to go that extra mile by buying preloved sustainable garments. Consumers are seeking sustainable bargains even though they\u2019re stuck at home. Consignment marketplace Poshmark recently told Forbes that its user base has jumped to 60 million, with sellers from mid-March to mid-June in 2020 sharing an astonishing 60 million listings every day \u2013 double the numbers recorded prior to Covid-19.\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\u201cI try as much as possible to give you a great basic product and what comes out, I feel, is really amazing.\u201d\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\t\t\t\tThe reasons vary, from environmental and sustainability factors to dramatically lower prices for name-brand items. There\u2019s also a thrill of the hunt aspect to shopping in secondhand clothing stores. Buying used clothes is far from a new phenomenon. A certain segment of every new generation of teens and 20-somethings invariably gets drawn into spending time combing through the racks at thrift shops or flea markets. But in the last decade, the emergence of online, peer-to-peer fashion resale marketplaces has turned the act of purchasing and selling used clothes into a much more mainstream activity.
