Nowadays the fashion industry grapples with a tug-a-war between consumerism – having the best and most cult items now –\u00a0<\/em>and remaining sustainable for future fashionable generations. While solutions are certainly not “one-size-fits-all”, Vestiaire Collective<\/a> may have just found the formula to sartorial success. Today in Paris, the leading global resale platform for pre-loved fashion has announced that it has achieved B Corp certification. It is the first second-hand fashion platform in the world to achieve this coveted status.<\/p>\n

The platform is loved by the likes of Jameela Jamil<\/a> and has seen brand partnerships with huge names like Alexander McQueen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What is B Corp, you may ask? B Corp \u2122 is an international community of impact companies, management tools and free impact measurement, as well as a label that certifies companies that meet high social and environmental standards.<\/p>\n

Vestiaire Collective was particularly recognized for significant achievements in the \u2018Workers\u2019 and \u2018Governance\u2019 areas. Under governance, all executive members are incentivized and involved with Sustainability & Inclusion criteria, underlining the company\u2019s financial commitment to taking concrete actions. The company boasts 500-plus employees across France, Germany, US, Hong Kong and Singapore. 60 percent are women with all staff covering 48 nationalities.<\/p>\n
