Founder and CEO Vanessa Barboni Hallik says resale was baked into the company’s business plan from the start and will be aimed, in part, at reducing production of new clothes. That’s not the angle most brands promote when they launch resale, but it is the only way that resale can help fashion to reduce its overall environmental footprint.
“The whole goal is that you develop these business models that incentivise really high-quality, long-lifecycle products, and therefore you end up selling fewer new products,” she says. “We believe in that; we're comfortable with that.”
