Ultra-luxury resale is part investment, part sustainability

Ultra-luxury resale is part investment, part sustainability
This week, Secondhand September takes us all the way to the top of the fashion resale market: ultra-luxury. And we have questions. Is it a sustainability play? Is it an investment market akin to fine art? How do you police fraud?
We talk with Sarah Davis, founder and president of Fashionphile, a re-commerce platform for high-end accessories to get her take. With more than 20 years in the luxury resale business, Sarah helps us understand what’s working and what’s needed to keep this market thriving and sustainable.
And, of course, Christina has stories from Milan Fashion Week!
Have a question for Christina, Rachel and Shilla? Give us a call at (508) 622-5361. We might feature your voicemail on an upcoming episode of the show.
