THRIFTED by Karolina Zammit is a sustainable luxury fashion business focused on restoring and reselling vintage designer handbags. My journey began with a deep appreciation for timeless craftsmanship—and a concern for the waste generated by fast fashion. Today, I personally source and refurbish pre-owned luxury bags, carefully restoring each one to extend its life and preserve its original beauty. By giving these high-quality items a second life, I not only honor the craftsmanship behind them but also actively reduce landfill waste and slow the demand for new production. Through this business, I’ve created a model that merges circular fashion with timeless elegance—one bag at a time.
