Ozempic and Wegovy users are turning their weight loss into a reason for a shopping spree, and luxury resellers are watching. Secondhand luxury fashion markets are noticing people on weight-loss journeys shedding old wardrobes, noting that the rising popularity of obesity medicines could be driving the trend.

Secondhand fashion platform Poshmark revealed a 103% increase in plus-size clothing listings, including a 103% increase in 3XL, 80% in 4XL, and 73% in 5XL listings over the past two years, Vogue Business reported. Poshmark also noted a 78% increase in new items with the term “weight loss” in a description or listing title.
