If you love collecting rare designer pieces for your wardrobe, then check out these destinations in Athens.
The demand for pre-loved designer fashion has hugely increased, as more people are choosing sustainable options to reduce waste and let’s be honest, to save money!
When strolling around the city, you will come across plenty of high-end pre-owned fashion items, as there is a fantastic range of luxury second-hand- shops in Athens to choose from.
Meant to Be Mint
A secret gem nestled in a slightly underground location in the upscale neighbourhood of Kolonaki, this second-hand shop is filled with top-designer goods ranging from Chanel to Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, and many more. The store owner, Martha, has a stunning selection of ready-to-wear, shoes, bags, and belts, which she personally hand-picks with care. Suppose you’re too far away and can’t make it to the store, don’t worry. Martha has her pieces available online and ships internationally!
