The market for used clothing is not brand-new. Buyers initially recognized them as thrift or charity stores, but interest in this industry has recently surged as a result of growing worries about the environment and the moral implications of fashion. Shoppers are choosing less expensive, non-essential alternatives to brand-new apparel and even less expensive fast fashion as inflation and rising energy costs all add to a cost of living issue globally. Since the pandemic, when people were compelled to purchase online amid store closures or use platforms like these to sell items they had emptied out of their wardrobes during lockdowns, the popularity of online resale platforms, including Depop and Vinted, has encouraged this expansion.
