Fashion resale marketplace Depop announces the launch of Depop This Look - a community-powered initiative connecting style inspiration from visually and culturally iconic locations across Los Angeles.


The initiative translates each location into hundreds of vintage, pre-loved styles curated with tastemakers including Jordan Firstman, Quen Blackwell, Marcel Ruiz, Remi Wolf, and more, all shoppable on the platform. Aligning with Depop’s values of purpose and community, talent and locations were selected and paired based on their personal styles and creative vision. 

Each partnership reimagines the aesthetic of popular West Coast communities and small businesses as style inspiration within the Depop app. The program, which runs through May 5, kicks off with partnerships between Depop and Jordan Firstman x Pink’s Hot Dogs, Quen Blackwell x Neighbors Skateshop, and Eunice Chang x Rainbow Bar & Grill. Participants can visit each location to scan its unique QR code creatively integrated throughout the space. From there, participants are given access to a tastemaker-curated edit of trends, styles and pieces to discover and explore second-hand and vintage fashion in-line with their favourite Los Angeles institutions. 

“It's really exciting to collaborate with some of LA's incredible talented individuals and landmark institutions to celebrate that style inspiration is all around us, and that people can explore secondhand and vintage fashion to find what they're looking for,” says Peter Semple, Depop’s Chief Marketing Officer. "Alongside these amazing partners we're hoping to prompt conversation around the connections between culture and fashion, and encourage everyone to share and discuss the people, communities, places that inspire them to #DepopThisLook."
