October is Circular Economy Month in Canada. At VARDO, consignment puts the idea of keeping clothing in use into practice.
The Clothes That Keep Giving
Buying secondhand gives existing garments another opportunity to be worn and enjoyed. VARDO's curated consignment collection brings together one-of-a-kind apparel, accessories, and statement pieces with a story of their own.
Explore our Consignment Collection to find pieces you'll want to wear again and again.
The VARDO Circular Story
Consignment connects clothing that someone is ready to part with to someone ready to enjoy it. When you shop secondhand, you help keep existing pieces in use. When you're ready for a wardrobe change, consider whether your pre-loved pieces could be suitable for consignment.

Care is Part of the Cycle
Caring for what you own is another way to keep clothing in use. Start with each garment's care label, especially for vintage pieces and delicate fabrics.
- When the care label allows, wash in cold water on a gentle cycle.
- Air dry when appropriate for the fabric and care instructions.
- Store knits folded rather than hung to help prevent stretching.
- Treat stains promptly using a method suitable for the fabric, testing an inconspicuous area first.
- Repair small issues when possible, and consider consignment when you're ready to part with a wearable piece.
