We are thrilled to kick off Second Hand September with nearly 20 of our brand partners, joining a global fashion movement to adopt circular shopping habits such as reselling, buying second hand, recycling, repairing, and donating.
The campaign was started by UK charity Oxfam, which highlights the benefits of shopping pre-loved items and encourages consumers to only buy or sell second hand items for the month of September. We are excited to support this campaign, particularly during a month when the fashion industry has historically focused on showcasing new collections.
Our brand partners are joining forces with Archive to celebrate Second Hand September this year, engaging consumers through special in-store and online activations, including curating pre-loved collections, running online promotions, and hosting styling events and live panel discussions.
