6 second-hand stores in Dubai to buy and sell pre-loved fashion

Rewearing is caring…

Having a wardrobe clear-out? A declutter always seems like a great idea but finding a timely and cost-effective way to sell your unwanted clothes can be a hassle. Instead of individually uploading every piece of clothing to a selling site or worse, throwing them away, here are a few more sustainable ways to find your preloved clothes a new home in Dubai.

Here are the best places to buy and sell second-hand clothes in Dubai:

Endless

Endless Wardrobe is a second-hand buying and selling platform in UAE that accepts all premium, contemporary, and luxury brands like Gucci, Chanel, Rat and Boa, Self-Portrait etc – just not fast fashion brands. You can shop and sell women’s clothes, shoes, and accessories as well as homeware and children’s. Once your items have been sold, Endless will take 10 per cent commission and pay you within three to five business days.

Thrift for Good

Thrift for Good will exchange your men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing as well as textiles, bags, shoes, and books in return for store credit (Dhs10 per bag). In partnership with Gulf 4 Good, they then donate every dirham of the profit to the Sparkle Foundation in Malawi and, where needed, donate the clothes to help children around the world.

La Suite

If you have a high-end selection of designer clothes to sell, look no further than La Suite – a haven for preloved premium women’s fashion. Ensure your clothes are in excellent condition before booking an appointment with the team who will photograph, market, and sell your items for you. As soon as the items are sold, you can collect your cash – minus 40 per cent commission – of the final selling price.
