Europe’s leading fashion and lifestyle platform Zalando announced last week a partnership with Vestiaire Collective to introduce secondhand luxury across 14 of its markets.

Vestiaire Collective is a French online marketplace for buying and selling pre-owned designer and luxury fashion, including handbags, clothing, shoes and accessories. Founded in Paris in 2009, the company now operates globally with millions of users. Through the partnership, Zalando customers gain access to a curated selection of authenticated secondhand luxury pieces.

The new partnership responds to strong demand for high-quality secondhand fashion. In 2025, an average of 62% of Zalando’s secondhand items were sold within the first seven days of being listed. Zalando data also shows that 40% of customers purchasing secondhand items add a new product to their order.

Through the collaboration, Zalando customers gain access to luxury fashion from more than 50 established designer brands, including items that were previously unavailable on the platform. The assortment spans clothing, footwear, handbags and accessories.

Alice Marshall, Director Pre-owned at Zalando, says:

“We are very pleased to offer a strong selection of authenticated luxury items together with Vestiaire Collective, our first secondhand partner. We are seeing growing interest in high-quality secondhand fashion, and with authenticated luxury pieces as part of the assortment, combined with the seamless shopping experience at Zalando. We hope to inspire even more customers to choose secondhand.”

Thomas Hezard, Chief Product Officer at Vestiaire Collective, adds:

“We look forward to our partnership with Zalando and to our shared mission of making certified secondhand luxury accessible to millions of customers across Europe. The partnership opens the door to a new generation of customers who can now discover and explore luxury fashion through secondhand pieces directly where they already shop.

It reflects a shared ambition to make circular luxury more visible, more relevant, and more appealing to a broader and younger audience.”

Earlier this year, Zalando also added accessories and childrenswear to its secondhand category.
