Online thrift stores
We have always seen thrift stores as a western concept because most Indian households do not throwaway clothes ever. We mostly donate or make our siblings wear them. Naturally, the idea of thrift stores would not work about 5-6 years ago. But now times have changed and so have we. People have become more conscious of spending and sustainability. Due to this reason, Instagram Thrifting has become the channel against present fast fashion culture. These stores provide quality as well as reasonable price, making it conveniently available to all groups without any restrictions on size, gender and finance. You can find items extending from clothes, footwear, vintage, accessories and even books from these dedicated online thrift stores. Moreover, these are easy to navigate too. Mentioned here are some thrift pages available on Instagram that I have noticed and liked. They are many more according to your preference. These thrift owners are like a community and give each other shoutouts and mentions on their respective pages every day. Which helps us explore and gives us a wide variety of choice.
