Norwich woman's success selling pre-loved clothes on Vinted

Yasmin Welch, 20, has been flipping second-hand clothing for the past two years and has made around £5,000. 

The Norwich University of the Arts student, from Colchester, is in her first year of Fashion Communications and sells pre-loved clothes through Vinted and at her pop-up shops, under her Re.Labelled brand.

Her first sale, a pair of 2003 Chanel sunglasses, which she found in a house clearance for £1 sold for £220. 

Other finds of Yasmin's include Vivienne Westwood and Gucci as she hunts through charity shops and car boots, which she is an avid lover of, calling them her "favourite places".

The student, who also works part-time, developed her brand to focus on 90s streetwear with a big focus on designer pieces.

Yasmin added: "Nearly my whole wardrobe is second-hand.

"I was collecting loads of clothes four years ago as I wanted to go into fashion styling. 

"I knew I wanted to start a brand one day but to start with I was just buying and selling clothes to have more to style.

"I am overwhelmed by the support from the public who see my vision for the brand.

"People are loving it and I am loving doing it." 

Re.Labelled will soon be on ASOS Marketplace as well as at pop-up shops around Norwich.
