SAN JOSE – eBay recently unveiled The NYC Edit — an online editorial guide highlighting what style insiders in New York are buying and selling on eBay, featuring curated selections and insights from tastemakers.
eBay brought together 10 cultural voices, stylists and creators living in New York who use eBay to sell and buy trending pieces, including stylist and fashion editor Dara Allen, actor and comedian Owen Thiele, and fashion writer Emilia Petrarca.
eBay contends that peer-powered resale events like clothing swaps and closet sales are gaining momentum. According to eBay’s Recommerce Report, nine in ten Gen Z and Millennial consumers plan to increase pre-loved spending this year.
The NYC Edit is available at ebay.com/nycedit, where style seekers can browse each curator’s storefront to shop the pieces they’re buying and selling, and easily list what’s currently in-demand on the marketplace.
“New York style is simultaneously cutting-edge and nostalgic, as the city is always in flux,” said fashion writer and tastemaker Emilia Petrarca via press release. “For The NYC Edit, I chose pieces that reflect eBay’s incredible selection of personal deep cuts, and capture a recent past that New Yorkers seem to be yearning for and rediscovering right now. I’m also selling a few things I love from my own closet that I’m ready to pass along to someone else in the style community.
