You could be sitting on a fashion goldmine, sis.

Alexa, play "Cleaning Out My Closet". The average Australian only wears half of what's in their wardrobe, according to 2021 research from Levi's. So if you're feeling both seen and ashamed like me, it may be time to give your closet a spring clean. As well as donating or doing a clothes swap, selling your old threads is a fab way to keep them out of landfill. Plus, it's a great way to make some cheeky cash on the side.

If you're deciding what goes into the "sell" or "donate" pile, you should know that some sought-after labels typically fetch higher bids than others. So to help you rake in the dough, we've rounded up the popular fashion labels that go for big bucks on eBay in 2021.

This article was created in partnership with our pals at eBay. With 13 pieces of women's fashion sold every minute on eBay you'll be in good company. Tap into Australia's largest marketplace today.
