A ‘second life’ fashion brand is coming to Edinburgh for a three day pop-up at the St James Quarter.
The travelling brand heads to cities across the UK, bringing their preloved and vintage garments and setting up huge markets. On March 24, they’ll be at the shopping centre car park.
We Are, who are behind the event, say they created the events to bring ‘sustainable, second life’ fashion to all.

Ahead of the event, organisers said guests can expect: “A great atmosphere and thousands of preloved, quality designer vintage garments for you to give a second life to.
“Sportswear, dresses, t-shirts, denim, streetwear, coats, jackets and much more in sizes XS to plus size. Prices start from around £4 per garment.
“We weigh your purchases and that determines the cost, based on £25 a kilo (but you do not need to buy a whole kilo). It’s roughly £6-8 for denim, £6 for a dress, and £4 for a t-shirt.”
Organisers say people don’t need to rush to get the best items, with rails refilled throughout the day. They added: “It doesn’t matter if you’re an early bird vintage lover, or want to join us in the last hour.
“There will be plenty of incredible one-time pieces for you to discover.”
We Are recommend pre-booking to avoid disappointment, though tickets can be bought on the door whenever empty slots are available. Currently, those who buy a ticket, share an image of it on Instagram and tag the brand could be in with a chance of winning a free kilo of their chosen items.
