Pre-loved Love Island outfits up for grabs in charity auction on eBay with proceeds going to Oxfam
eBay is giving Love Island fans the chance to nab the hottest pre-loved looks worn by their favourite Islanders, via the launch of a charity auction with brands including House of CB, Jacqueumus, and Arne.
This will be live for 10 days until Sunday, 30th July.
The auction will be hosted by pre-loved seller Reskinned. 100% of the proceeds from the items sold will be donated to Oxfam.
Kirsty Keoghan, Global General Manager at eBay UK, says: “We’re excited to once again give fans of the show the chance to own the pre-loved clothes worn by their favourite Islanders - and it’s all for such a great cause.”
“The fashion in the villa this year has been incredible, and the auction gives viewers the opportunity to give these items another lease of life and style them in their own unique way.”
Amy Bannerman
In May, eBay announced the appointment of fashion stylist and pre-loved fashion advocate, Amy Bannerman, as its in-house Pre-Loved Style Director.
This sees her take on a range of new responsibilities within the fashion arm of the online marketplace’s business, including styling and sourcing for eBay’s fashion related campaigns, styling for key talent that work with the firm, on site merchandising consultations and acting as a fashion spokesperson for the brand.
The pair previously worked together to style the Islanders in the Love Island villa in pre-loved clothes sourced from eBay, including a selection of pre-loved, authenticated sneakers and garments from its Imperfects range.
Bannerman is continuing to do this job in her new capacity.
She said: “I’m so happy to start this new role, it has been incredible working with eBay to style the Islanders for the past couple seasons and I'm so proud of how much we have already changed pre-loved perceptions. I’m excited to work even more closely with the eBay team to inspire a more conscious way of shopping.”
