May 20, 2021 From Our Selling Guide: The Utilitarian Trend

If you keep an eye on the trends from our selling guide, the utilitarian trend may have jumped out at you. Wondering what the trend is all about? We’re happy to introduce you to it.

Utilitarian fashion pieces focus on functionality, a characteristic that makes them look simple and streamlined. The trend is rooted in military and menswear silhouettes–and while it may sound boring–the design result is effortless and sleek.

The trend occurs in everything from dresses to jackets to shoes and bags. We’ll show you! Keep scrolling to see a variety of examples that came straight from the sales floors of some of our store locations. Make note of the accent on zippers and clean lines. Then imagine the ease of selecting any of these items from your closet for the day. They’re easy to wear and fashionable!

This is only one look from our online selling guide: the utilitarian trend is listed there among many others that we’re looking to buy in our stores right now. Give it a look to see if you have any “pre-loved” items in your closet that can earn you cash or trade on-the-spot in our stores. Then make a visit and ask to sell with a buyer. We hope to see you!
