.LuisaViaRoma has partnered with vestiaireco on a project geared toward the circular economy, enabling its customers to sell their previously worn fashions in exchange for credits to be spent on new goods on the e-commerce site.
The project kicks off Thursday with the launch of a dedicated page on luisaviaroma.com whereby customers can upload information and pictures of their fashion and receive a quotation within 48 hours. Upon receiving garments and accessories, Vestiaire Collective will carry out a quality and authentication assessment and unlock a LuisaViaRoma credit, provided to customers within four business days in the form of a gift card.
Pre-owned fashion will then be sold on the Vestiaire Collective platform via a page dedicated to the project. “We’re excited to partner with LuisaViaRoma to offer our service and share passion for circularity. A pivotal piece of achieving a more sustainable fashion system is intensifying the voice of,” said Max Bittner, CEO and chairman of Vestiaire Collective. “We’ll keep joining forces and fighting one next to the other with brands and retailers, engaging their clients to embrace circular fashion by giving second-life to their pieces they never again wear,” he added.
The resale service capitalizes on both companies’ expertise and debuts in the Italian market before a wider rollout, expected by the end of 2022. It allows customers to sell bags, shoes, accessories and ready-to-wear from 46 luxury womenswear brands, such as Balenciaga, Dior, Gucci and Prada, but both companies share the same commitment to expand the selection of accepted luxury labels in due course.
LuisaViaRoma joins a handful of other retailers piloting resale as part of their sustainability efforts.
