On the weekend, I finally did the thing I’ve been putting off for weeks: a proper transitional wardrobe swap. You know the drill – packing away chunky knits and heavy-duty boots, and bringing out lighter layers, breezy dresses and loafers that actually make getting dressed feel exciting again.
But I didn’t stop there. I took it as an opportunity to clear out my spring/summer wardrobe, too – creating a sell pile of tops, skirts and dresses that I just don’t reach for any more. Then came the admin: photographing each piece (yes, it’s a process), and writing captions in my notes app so uploading everything to Vinted would be quick and painless.
So far? It’s been a success.
And I don’t say that lightly. After five years of reselling on Vinted, I’ve learned exactly which brands are worth the effort – and which ones simply aren’t. I know buyers will try to lowball (they always do), but I’ve also learned to stand my ground. My bio literally says “open to reasonable offers,” and I mean it – I’m not afraid to politely decline anything that dips too far below my asking price.
If you’re planning your own spring clear-out, these are the brands I’ve found consistently deliver when it comes to resale value.
1. The all-rounder: Nobody’s Child
If there’s one brand that never fails to perform for me, it’s Nobody’s Child. It’s easily one of the most searched-for names on the app right now, and the engagement speaks for itself.
Within 24 hours of listing, my linen maxi skirt had 88 likes, a white midi dress racked up 230 favourites, and a strapless butter-yellow number hit 45 – and they’re still climbing.

Dresses are definitely the brand’s strongest category, but with its increasingly elevated outerwear (which regularly sells out online), I have a feeling that’s about to take off on Vinted, too.
2. Elevated basics: & Other Stories, COS and Arket
Scroll Vinted for more than a minute and you’ll see just how saturated the market is with these three – but don’t let that put you off.
I’ve had the most success with & Other Stories
Personally, I’ve had the most success with & Other Stories (mainly because I own more of it), but COS and Arket pieces hold their value just as well – especially if they’re timeless.
I once sold a jumpsuit I’d worn once for just £10 under retail, and right now I’ve got a couple of well-loved summer dresses listed for £40 that are already pulling in serious interest. I’d be surprised if they’re still available by the end of the week.
3. French labels: Sézane and Rouje
Sézane has long been one of my go-to brands for strong resale value – particularly embroidered blouses and chunky knit cardigans.
If you’ve taken care of your pieces, you can comfortably list them at around two-thirds of the original price, which is pretty impressive for pre-loved fashion.

More recently, Rouje has been gaining serious traction on Vinted, too. Think floral dresses and feminine, frilled tops – the kind of pieces that feel instantly Parisian and always attract attention.
4. Occasion dresses: Reformation and Rixo
If you’ve got a Reformation or Rixo dress sitting in your wardrobe, consider this your sign to list it.
These are the kind of pieces people typically buy for specific occasions – weddings, parties, events – and then don’t wear again, which makes them perfect for resale. In my experience, there’s always strong demand for styles that have only been worn once or twice and are still in excellent condition.

Don’t undersell them, either. With original retail prices often around the £300 mark, I’ve found you can confidently list them for £200 or more, depending on condition and style – and still attract plenty of interest.
5. Denim specialists: Agolde and Mother
Designer denim is one of the easiest categories to both buy and sell – provided your pieces are still in great condition.
Agolde and Mother have both reached cult status, and there’s a loyal group of Vinted shoppers who are literally waiting for new listings in their size.

Retail prices can hit £300, but even lightly worn pairs can sell for around £200. If you happen to be a popular size, even better.
6. Mid-priced bags: Demellier and Polène
When it comes to bags, I’ve found the sweet spot is brands that sit between high street and luxury – and Demellier and Polène are perfect examples.

Demellier styles tend to hold their value well, often reselling for around two-thirds of their original price. Polène, on the other hand, is having a serious moment – so much so that some of my bags from a few years ago could now sell for what I paid (or close to it).
The key here is condition. Keep your dust bags, boxes and receipts if you can – it really does make a difference.
7. Minimalist footwear: Aeyde and Dear Frances
Shoes are, without a doubt, the trickiest category to resell. Realistically, they need to be barely worn if you want to make decent money.
But we’ve all been there – buying a pair that doesn’t quite fit, or wearing something once to an event and never again. That’s where Vinted comes in.
Right now, minimalist brands like Aeyde and Dear Frances are your best bet. They tap into that clean, understated aesthetic that’s hugely in demand – and if they’re in great condition, they will sell.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that a successful Vinted clear-out isn’t just about what you’re selling – it’s about how you’re selling it. Good photos, clear descriptions and a little patience go a long way.
And if you play it right, your spring clean could end up funding your next wardrobe refresh.
