“We wanted it to be a mix of high-end and high-street vintage,” says Amy on the archival looks she pulled for the 'Love Island' cast.
“We wanted it to be a mix of high-end and high-street vintage,” says Amy, who has not only scored major archive hits from Gucci, Prada, Dior and Versace, but also nostalgic British high-street gems from old favorites, such as Bay Trading, Tammy Girl and Morgan. No matter the genesis of the look , Bannerman’s aim is to show each piece as something uniquely valuable, not simply a second-hand steal.
The themes are also designed to show that clothes are not disposable, but pieces to cherish. “Love Me Forever” is a compilation of classics—undisputed treasures Bannerman scored for a snip of the original price and which fashion fans will be drooling over. “Blurred Lines” is designed to break down gender stereotypes, with sheer pink blouses for men and oversized shirts worn as dresses for women.
Of course when Ebay is your passion, nothing is left to chance. Bannerman has myriad alerts set up , and she never bids straight away. Putting down an odd number, such as $10.11 instead of just a tenner, in the closing hours is her lucky tip for beating the masses. The fun doesn’t end there. There are garments to alter—namely ’80s frou-frou dresses which have been shortened to be more-appropriate, and some Levi’s shorts with even higher hemlines—plus more fashion to find. The central villa edit will be topped up as the season progresses, with Ebay curating shoppable edits of similar pieces seen on screen.
