Distressed Luxury Trend Takes Over Fashion

Distressed Luxury Trend Takes Over Fashion

The fashion world is embracing a new trend called distressed luxury, where luxury items are intentionally made to look worn-out and aged.

This trend is not just about looks; it's about changing how people see value in fashion.

Rosie Gunn, the CEO of a luxury resale platform called Endless, explains that this trend has been popular in the resale market for a while.

Now, big designers are also adopting it, making cracks, fades, and rough textures fashionable.

This shift means that what used to be seen as flaws in luxury items are now considered special features.

It's a big change in how we think about high-end fashion.
