THE STORY
It all started with a simple question: “Why should so many luxury fashion pieces lie unused in our wardrobes? Could there be a way to extend the lifespan of these beautiful pieces by bringing them back into circulation?” From its conception, Vestiaire Collective has encouraged consumers to consider resale as a smart and sustainable approach to fashion.
Since our launch in 2009, we have grown from a French company to a global one whilst maintaining a strong Parisian DNA. Our international community is now composed of over 7 million fashion savvy members located in over 50 countries across Europe, the United States, Asia, and Australia. To date over 300 talented people are employed in our international offices located in Paris, London, New York, Berlin, Milan and Hong Kong.
The Vestiaire Collective model is unique due to its carefully curated catalogue of desirable items, that once sold are expertly checked to ensure their quality and authenticity. 25,000 new items are submitted by our community of sellers every week, which enables buyers to search over 3,500 coveted and must have fashion pieces a day, ensuring that Vestiaire Collective is the go-to site for an exciting unique shopping experience.
