To support a generation that wants to stylishly and sustainably outfit themselves for summer, eBay UK is introducing the Nation’s Shared Wardrobe with Pre-Loved Style Director Amy Bannerman, who also sources the wardrobe for the reality TV show Love Island.
Fans of the show can look forward to shopping for Islander-inspired outfits on a dedicated Love Island fashion hub at the end of May. Additionally, eBay UK is opening the Nation’s Shared Wardrobe in early June in Shoreditch, giving fans an exclusive look at the Villa wardrobe experience.
Gen Z is already passionate about sharing fashion with friends—according to eBay, more than a quarter (27%) of Gen Z share clothes with their friends and 16% borrow from their partner’s wardrobe—and this event aims to get more people shopping pre-loved and embracing re-wearing.
