How Covid-19 has changed the secondary fashion market The second-hand luxury trends according to Vestiaire Collective

In recent years, the luxury secondary market has grown without precedent, democratizing fashion for hundreds of thousands of consumers and also becoming a smart and sustainable option for an ever-growing community of users. The secondary luxury market, unlike the primary, has found a perfect habitat in the digital world, and through increasingly fluid and sophisticated apps and websites has managed to develop even though the dramatic months of lockdown caused by the Covid-19 pandemic that has instead caused enormous damage to the primary fashion market. 

Vintage also seems to be a fast-growing category, both because it is not influenced by availability as it happens to new garments, and because it allows users more time to conduct shopping research. The Balenciaga of the era of Nicolas Ghesquiere dominates the vintage rankings, followed by Galliano, Margiela, Prada and Miu Miu. Searches for sustainable brands will continue to grow, while a trend from the Southeast Asian area is the capitalization of safe-haven assets such as Rolex and Omega watches and Hermès garments.
