Mytheresa and Vestiaire Collective are in partnership to support a more sustainable fashion ecosystem and they created a resale service that appeals to high-end luxury customers. Mytheresa’s top clients will be invited to participate in the program, where they can circulate pre-loved items in a way that benefits them, as well as buyers who are looking for authentic goods. Vestiaire Collective takes care of assessing the quality and authenticity of the pre-used items so that people can purchase high-end goods in a way that is secure, convenient and sustainable.
According to the partnering brands, "This initiative marks the first time that a multi-brand luxury platform embraces designer resale in a comprehensive way to reinforce the shift to circularity as part of the fashion ecosystem."
