Vinted x British Vogue
This Friday, I got an exciting notification from Vinted, announcing that British Vogue now has its own Vinted shop!
As a thought leader in fashion, Vogue is known for shaping trends and guiding the industry, so this collaboration with Vinted to promote pre-loved, sustainable fashion is really exciting.
Hereโs what the collaboration includes:

Fashion lovers can now buy pre-loved designer pieces straight from Vogue photoshoots and the personal collections of Vogue editors.
๐๏ธ ๐ ๐ก๐ฒ๐ ๐ฃ๐ผ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ - ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐น๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ด๐ฒ๐๐.
Sponsored by Vinted, the podcast goes beyond fashion trends, exploring how style holds personal meaning. With celebrities talking about the stories behind their wardrobes, from cherished hand-me-downs to investment pieces that have stood the test of time.
What makes this collaboration even more impactful is that all proceeds will support Oxfam! ๐
Beyond their efforts to raise money to combat poverty, Oxfam has long championed pre-loved fashion. Their approach to second-hand shopping is innovative, with many stores designed to feel like vintage boutiques, encouraging more people to shop and donate to the charity.
Theyโve previously partnered with Vinted, Barbour, and eBay to promote sustainability. They also launched the Second Hand September campaign in 2019 (still running every September ๐ ), encouraging people to shop second-hand for an entire month.
By curating their charity shops with more thought, Oxfam is helping to reduce the stigma around buying second-hand and raise money. ๐

Of course, itโs important to acknowledge that while itโs exciting to see Vogue and celebrities embracing sustainable fashion, not everyone has the financial freedom to choose where they buy their clothes. For some, hand-me-downs, making clothes last, and pre-loved items are necessities rather than choices.
Personally, most of my wardrobe is made up of older โhard-workingโ items or pre-loved fashion, whether from Vinted, charity shops, family members, or the occasional find on Vestiaire Collective. Reducing my environmental impact but also making my wardrobe more unique and meaningful.
For me, this collaboration is the perfect example of how fashion can be personal and sustainable. When we buy thoughtfully, choosing pieces that reflect our personalities and stories, we naturally move away from fast fashion and towards more lasting, meaningful choices. ๐ซถ
