British singer, songwriter Charli xcx has brought pre-loved fashion to the stage throughout her Music, Fashion, Film tour.
Working alongside longtime stylist Chris Horan, Charli has incorporated a series of vintage and pre-loved finds sourced directly from Vinted sellers into her wardrobe.
Additionally, Charli is giving fans the opportunity to shop her own closet. From 16 November, a curated selection of pieces from her personal archive, tour wardrobe and items sourced by Horan will be available to purchase on Vinted across the UK, US and Australia.
All proceeds will benefit Rainbow Railroad, the international organization helping LGBTQI+ people facing persecution find safety.
“Vintage and second-hand are a huge part of my style. Chris and I love mixing older, iconic pieces with newer things. I think it makes a look feel more personal to me and always takes us to a more unexpected place,” said Charli.
Charli and Horan used Vinted to source an eclectic mix of pre-loved and designer pieces using search terms including “distressed,” “gothic” and “flounce.”
Among their finds were an early-2000s Christian Audigier piece reimagined as a dress for Austin City Limits, a sheer grey blouse worn in San Diego and a black Roberto Cavalli dress worn to the Academy Gala after-party in Los Angeles and the final show in Las Vegas.
“Once I have my moment wearing something, I like to pass it on because ya never know who’s gonna wear it next… maybe a pop star, she added.
The November drop will include looks worn on tour, second-hand finds sourced by Horan and pieces from Charli’s personal archive, including a leather jacket from R&M Leathers and vintage tees.
“Some were found on Vinted in the first place, worn on stage, and are now going back out into the world. Which feels like a full circle,” noted Charli.
