While we appreciate the allure of buying brand new clothes, accessories, and designer shoes, sometimes we simply indulge in the idea of buying pre-owned items to play our part in reducing waste and sticking to our financial New Year’s resolutions. In the constant search for exceptional pre-owned items and Amazon’s ongoing commitment to exploring ways to win over fashion shoppers, Amazon has partnered with Rent the Runway to sell pre-worn — and new — designs from the famous clothing rental brand.
Designer pieces previously rented and worn by Rent the Runway customers will be sold through this new storefront. This includes hundreds of styles in casual wear, office wear, formal wear and seasonal essentials from brands such as Jonathan Simkhai, Maison Margiela, Victoria Beckham, Rag & Bone, Apparis and more.
While this isn’t the first time Amazon has offered second-hand fashion to its customers, it’s a significant next step toward increasing sustainability efforts and making second-hand options that don’t sacrifice style for quality more available online.
Whether you’re a die-hard fan of Amazon fashion or a curious newbie, you may know that the site offers a wide variety of clothing items that made searching for a deal time-consuming. That’s why we’re sharing our top picks from the new pre-loved showcase to fill the gaps in your wardrobe. From winter coats and midi skirts to sweaters and dresses on Amazon, this favorite edition will keep you covered for winter and beyond. Happy shopping!
