Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark, Mercari, and Depop are the best platforms as they cater to a younger, fashion-conscious demographic looking for event wear. Facebook Marketplace is also viable for local prom/wedding shoppers.
Selling Tips
Photograph in natural light to capture the sheen of the satin. Use keywords like 'Bridal,' 'Block Heel,' 'Satin,' 'Knot,' 'Wedding Guest,' and 'Prom.' Clean the insoles with a damp cloth and mild soap to improve the 'Condition' rating before listing.
