Brand Mission
Our Story.
Welcome to Thrift Be Told! What started as a small community event in the Sutherland Shire of Sydney, has grown into a year-round platform for sustainable fashion, now accessible to everyone. Our website makes it easy to buy and sell preloved clothing, with Australia-wide postage available. We’re all about promoting thoughtful choices—encouraging you to clear out what you’re not wearing and consider preloved before buying new. Let’s make sustainable fashion second nature, one piece at a time.
Our Values
Sustainability
We believe in the power of thoughtful consumption. By promoting the reuse and recycling of preloved fashion, we aim to reduce waste and lessen the environmental impact of the fashion industry.
Community
Our roots are in the community, and we strive to maintain that connection as we grow. We bring people together through our events and online platform, fostering a sense of belonging and shared purpose.
Quality
We are committed to offering high-quality preloved clothing that’s in excellent, ready-to-wear condition. We believe that sustainable fashion doesn’t mean compromising on style or quality.
Accessibility
We want sustainable fashion to be accessible to everyone, not just in the Shire but across Australia. Our platform is designed to make buying and selling preloved clothing easy and convenient for all.
Empowerment
We empower individuals to make thoughtful choices about their wardrobes. By choosing preloved, you’re not only saving money but also making a positive impact on the environment.
Integrity
We operate with honesty and transparency in all our dealings, whether it's with sellers, buyers, or community partners. Trust is at the core of our relationships.
Innovation
We continuously look for new ways to improve our platform and enhance the experience for our community, from event management to the online shopping experience.
