Pre-owned items are articles of clothing that have been retired from someone else closet. 

Pre-owned items already exist, so they require no additional resources and energy to create, contributing zero additional carbon emissions, pollution, and other environmental damages. Additionally, Pre-owned garments are being saved from being thrown away. Around €150 million worth of textile waste goes to landfill and waste each year. Buying pre-owned garments gives clothing second lives, building circularity in the fashion industry, and shortening the demand for new garments.

Pre-owned garments are also often more special because they are often one of a kind because they aren’t sold commercially anymore. They can make your wardrobe more unique, showing your individuality.

Pre-owned items help you reduce the impact of your purchase and close the loop. Around €150 million worth of textile waste goes to landfill and waste each year. By choosing pre-owned items you are keeping them in circle for longer.

Items can be returned 14 days after the delivery.

Born in 2018, Francesca Marchisio is an Italian brand from Reggio Emilia and is a pioneer of reversibility. Through their designs, fashion becomes metamorphic, clothes fit every style and allow people to stand out or camouflage according to the context. Francesca, the founder and designer, combines ready-to-wear fashion with the industrial design method to create authentic objects

Francesca Marchisio's packaging is very limited (no hangers, no plastic). They ship boxes made of FSC and recycled FSC cardboard

All Francesca Marchisio collections are produced in Italy (Emilia and Marche)

Many of Francesca Marchisio's reversible items are also detachable (outerwear most) to be adapted for different occasions

Wool fabrics used to produce the brand's clothes come from suppliers from Biella and are mulesing free

The core idea behind Francesca Marchisio's philosophy is that designs need time to be created in a functional, aesthetic and ethical way. They aim to produce fewer models but more variants of customizations to get each model unique on request

Francesca Marchisio is a small business and the team is composed of the founder's young assistant Eleonora, the patternmaker Anna, the embroiderer Grazia and other independent seamstresses

The first aim of Francesca Marchisio's collections is to be timeless and reusable through their reversible designs. As humans are complex beings, every piece can match two souls and can be worn in different times and moods

Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products of better quality and environmental value. 

Upcycling artists are inspired by the textile waste they see, which is almost an unlimited resource at this point. They create with the intention to use what is already here. This process is important in the circular fashion movement, because it makes use of discarded textiles, giving these materials second lives. 

Because discarded textiles are not typically sheets of fabric, but rather articles of discarded clothing, a lot of creativity is required to transform materials into new fashionable pieces. This challenge is exciting for upcycling artists, as they are driven and inspired to create with what is in front of them and often don’t have much to lose in the process, since discarded materials are readily available and cheap. Because of this, upcycled clothing is often unique as each piece has been thoughtfully crafted into a new garment.

This product is made by creatively upcycling materials that would otherwise go to waste. This makes better use of resources like deadstock fabrics: leftovers from big production that are saved by re-using them.

Linen is a strong, lightweight fabric made from the flax plant. It is one of the most historical fibers, and has been used as a clothing textile since 8000BC. 

Linen is a sustainable fabric because of its low requirements of water, resources, and energy to create. There is also little to no pesticides used on linen farms. 

Linen is notorious for durability and versatility. Linen can withstand high temperatures—making the fabric generally perfect for raiding the jungle or lounging on a tropical island. It absorbs moisture without holding bacteria. In fact, it is actually stronger when wet than dry and becomes softer and more pliable the more it is washed. It just gets better and better the longer you have it in your closet! 

Linen is a bio-based material, making it biodegradable, fully composting after it has retired from use.

Linen is one of the most historical fibers, known for its durability and versatility. Made from flax plant fibres, it is a sustainable fabric due to the low requirements of resources like water and little to no pesticides compared to cotton.
