We got in touch with SaltScout’s co-founder Komal Hiranandani to tell us why they opted for celebrity outfits and here’s what she had to say,

“Charity sales of celebrity wardrobes seemed like it had the potential to be a real win-win setup – additional fundraising avenues for important social causes, having the garments worn for longer by more people can substantially reduce the negative environmental impact of the apparel industry, fans have a wonderful new way of connecting with their favourite stars, and people interested in preloved shopping for its environmental benefits get celebrity-style options!”

The response

SaltScout has seen a great response from a wide geographic range. “Supporters come from large metros like Delhi, remote towns, and foreign countries.” Whether people are drawn by the charity fundraising angle, the environmental benefits of preloved clothing angle, or the celebrity wardrobe-share angle, it’s been clear that the vast majority of participants appreciate the social benefit enabled by their participation!

You too can do your bit and score some pre-loved celebrity outfits on this platform. They also have more fun collaborations with celebrities coming up in the future and to know more you can check them out of SaltScout.com!
