Last week, Vinted – the place where fashion lovers can source the most grailed pieces second hand – brought their extensive online offering into the real world with their “House of Vinted” pop-up in South Kensington’s Adria hotel in London.
Setting up various rooms to fit each curator’s own stock and vibe, the pop-up felt like stepping into the world of the seller with personalised notes about whatever they're selling, giving a short backstory or anecdotes on their stock.
It made the shopping experience that much more elevated and personal, making you feel closer to the clothes knowing where they’d been worn before and what they meant to someone in the past. People were trying on clothes, talking to sellers and other customers - it was such a good vibe.
The curation was top tier, too, with a range of brands from Balmain to Maison Margiela to even Comme des Garçons thanks to the sellers: Susie Lau, Victoria Magrath, Simran Randhawa, Giulia Valentina and Keiona Revlon. There was something for everyone, no matter what your taste or preference is. The best part: you could buy it on the spot - easy cop.
In case you weren’t in London to experience the pop-up for yourself, Vinted also has you covered with each seller curation going live on the app for you to shop just like you usually would. Make sure you check out the stock, it’s defo flying off the digital shelves.
