Depop has turned secondhand shopping into a social media experience, and the intersection of those two things is more interesting than either one alone. The app looks like Instagram, but every post is a listing. Sellers style their items with the same care that influencers put into their feeds, which means you end up browsing for the aesthetic as much as for the clothes. Buying used isn't a compromise here. It's a way to find pieces with history and personality that fast fashion can't replicate.
