Vinted partners with Alexa Chung to sell her designer wardrobe

On this episode of Talking Shop we are joined by Phil James, founder and Creative Director of the contemporary heritage clothing brand &SONS. Phil began his career behind the lens as a commercial advertising photographer, working with global brands to hone a distinct visual language. But in 2016, he decided to step out from behind the camera to build a brand of his own.

Vinted has partnered with Alexa Chung to sell personal luxury fashion pieces from her wardrobe. 

All sales proceeds from Alexa’s wardrobe on Vinted will be donated to Endometriosis UK as her charity of choice. 

Chung’s clothes will be available to purchase from 4 May at 6pm for Vinted members in the UK. 

Items will include clothes, bags, sunglasses and shoes from brands such as Prada, JW Anderson, Khaite, Magda Butrym and Galvan London. A second drop of  items from brands like Dior and Loewe will follow in June.

Chung said: “I love the magic and rush of unearthing something unexpected that might knock your comfortable style out of its regular lane slightly. Vintage fashion has the ability to breathe new life into your wardrobe because it brings with it an inherent playfulness. I think there’s something so romantic about connecting to another era through what we wear. 

“The idea that you can repurpose and bring a new attitude to something that was made for another time and another context, I find the concept of trends coming back around and evolving each time weirdly comforting amidst the current chaos. And it’s so nice to wear something unique that nobody else can buy, unless they’re treasure hunters like you.”

Adam Jay, CEO of Vinted Marketplace, added: “Alexa Chung is a global style icon and we are super excited to be partnering with her. Vinted members will be able to see her wardrobe and have the opportunity to buy from it. 

“At Vinted we love to connect our community with unique luxury pieces that have a backstory, making them accessible and affordable to all.”
