Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Depop or Poshmark are best for this specific style/era; eBay for a broader audience looking for specific petite office wear
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Dark Academia', '90s Minimalist', 'High Waisted', and 'Gorpcore' (if the green is earthy enough). Measure the exact inseam and waist laying flat since vintage petite sizing can run smaller than modern sizes.
