Products from the 1990s are especially popular, such as a Vivienne Westwood corset or a vintage Prada jacket.
  • Millennial customers (born 1981 – 1996) are often the group that values ​​business ability with second hand goods. Their biggest purpose when selling is to invest in new items for their wardrobe. Thus, they can continuously own new items but do not fall into the state of “inflammation of the bag”.
  • Even Baby Boomers (born 1946 – 1964) also participate in the second hand fashion market. Their main purpose is to clear out the closet and sell the products that are no longer needed.
  • Gen Z group (1997 – 2012) is the fastest growing customer in the field of second hand high-end fashion shopping. For many of them, the second hand market is the first place where they get their first designer piece.
