The trailblazers over at Vinted have been leading the preloved parade for a while now, proving that shopping second-hand is just as stylish as (and waaay more sustainable than) buying something brand new. And it turns out that the parade has been heading in one very particular direction. Towards their first ever pop-up shopthat just so happens to be popping-up in London next weekend.
The fashion aficionados (a-fashion-ados, if you will) are fleetingly taking over a townhouse in South Kensington, setting up shop inside the utterly gorgeous Adria hotel for one day only. House of Vinted will give visitors the chance to peruse preloved pieces from the luxurious likes of Prada gucci, Jangiely, go to Margielle, and Guitailand get their hands on carefully curated collections from notable names in the fashion world, including Susie Lau, Victoria Magrath, Simran Randhawa, and Guilia Valentina.
The collections will be arranged into different themed rooms, such as ‘Art Deco already seen‘, ‘Modern Eclectic’s Encore‘ and ‘Cottagecore Comeback‘. Each room will be packed with pieces sourced from Vinted, its archives, or the creator’s own personal wardrobe. Shoppers will also be able to partake in various fashion-based workshopsor even take a trip to ‘luxury style surgery’, where they’ll be prescribed some fashion advice from stylist and wardrobe consultant, Manisha sabharwal.
