Luckily there’s an easy way to have a chic and sustainable Christmas this year – all thanks to eBay’s pre-loved festive offering. With a fantastic selection available, it’s never been more effortless, or eco-friendly: all at incredible value.
According to recent research, Oxfam estimates that sequins contributed 1.7 million tonnes of waste to landfill in 2019 – proof that festive fashion isn’t always the most sustainable. The research reveals that nearly three in five people (58%) only wear a sequin outfit once to twice, with 9% throwing away their sequins after just one wear. Shopping pre-loved this Christmas is the easiest way to add more sparkle to your wardrobe – from Valentino’s blue sequin mini-skirt, £38, to an embellished top by Just Cavalli, £34.

Less of a magpie? From sparkly tops (perfect to pair with denim all year-round) and tinsel-effect dresses, there’s plenty of options depending on your festive spirit. The marabou feather jacket by Reiss, £69, is the perfect plus-one cover-up, while a sheer skirt by Simone Rocha, £90 – an easy transitional piece when styled with a roll-neck or white shirt - will see you through long after the festive period.
Let’s not forget that Christmas also means gifting opportunities - both for loved ones and a spot of self-gifting too. eBay remains the go-to seller for pre-loved, premium shoes and bags - think Gucci, Louis Vuitton and Yves Saint Laurent. With an Authenticity Guarantee on all jewellery and handbags over £500, it means you can invest with peace of mind that it’s the real deal.
