Collection: LAST SEAONS
There are a number of tips and tricks when it comes to shopping second-hand. One of them is to keep it simple: go for a couple of seasons old – not last season so it is still on trend and for sure don’t go for the trend pieces to avoid a dated look. Taking a gamble and building a vintage collection is the only reason to purchase trend pieces just out of fashion – as they can be snatched up for incredibly low prices. If you have a good feeling for it you will be able to find pieces that later on will become valuable and will be re-issued or secondhand sought after. It is best to buy former it bags that have not yet been reissued. After a bit of research, you need to find the bags that match the zeitgeist of next season so you can buy them cheaply before everyone else is looking.
If you want to find pieces to wear today: opt for pieces that cannot be easily dated. Avoid designers who release notable prints for one season only. Find pieces that are only a few seasons old, not yet vintage but old enough to be forgotten. The focus here is on timeless and classic pieces in muted or neutral tones. Having a bold color that is no longer sought after and a design slightly out of fashion often leads to an outfit that appears thrown together and unfashionable instead of chic.
