Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across ASOS
- ASOS Edition occasionwear, which is made in smaller runs for weddings and events and is genuinely searched for secondhand
- Bridesmaid and formal dresses, which are bought once, worn once and sell on well while the style is current
- ASOS 4505 activewear, which is a separate line with its own following rather than a mainline basic
- Anything unworn with tags, since the gap between the sale price new and the secondhand price is narrow on this label
What pulls ASOS resale value down
- ASOS Design mainline basics, which are discounted so aggressively new that a used one rarely covers postage
- Anything more than a season or two old, which is competing against the current range at clearance prices
- Peeling faux leather and coated finishes, common on the cheaper outerwear and beyond repair
- Pilled jersey and knitwear, which appears quickly on the lighter blends
Identifying and dating yours
- The neck label distinguishes ASOS Design from Edition, 4505 and Collusion, and only some of those are worth listing individually
- The care label carries a product code that can be searched to confirm the season and what it originally sold for
- ASOS sizing varies noticeably between its own lines, so give flat measurements rather than the label size
What lifts any skirt, whatever the label
Skirts cover an enormous range, so fabric and construction quality do far more for the price than the style does.
- Natural fabrics with good weight and drape
- Lined skirts with intact linings
- Designer and contemporary labels
- Working zips and fastenings
And what pulls one down
- Torn or twisted linings
- Broken zips and missing hooks
- Pilling on woollen fabrics
- Thin unlined polyester
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the lining is intact and hangs straight
- Work the zip fully
- Measure the waist and length flat
What to state in the listing
- Flat waist doubled, hip, and length from waistband to hem
- Fabric composition and whether it is lined
- Style: A-line, pencil, pleated, wrap
- Zip or elastic fastening, and whether it has pockets
Style, fabric and size: “A-Line Midi Skirt, Wool Blend, Size 12, 70cm Long”. Length in centimetres belongs in the title because skirt length is entirely relative to the wearer. Say whether it is lined and whether it has pockets.
Preparing and photographing it
- Measure the flat waist, the hip and the full length from waistband to hem.
- Check the zip runs cleanly and whether there is a lining.
- Look at the seat and hem for wear, pulls or marks.
- Laid flat, front, whole skirt in frame
- A tape running waistband to hem
- The composition and size label
- The zip, the lining and any snag or mark
When it sells best, and handing it over
Steady with lifts in spring and before the party season. Midi and A-line styles sell fastest.
Light and cheap to post, folds small. Fold along the existing seams and add tissue for pleats or satin, since a creased skirt photographs badly on arrival and prompts avoidable questions.
What buyers ask
Is ASOS own-brand worth selling secondhand?
Occasionwear is — ASOS Edition dresses and formal pieces sell steadily. Mainline ASOS Design basics generally are not, because the new price after discount is close to what a used one would fetch. Bundle those instead.
Which ASOS line holds value best?
ASOS Edition, the occasionwear line, followed by 4505 activewear. Both are labelled separately from ASOS Design and are worth naming in the title.
How much is an ASOS skirt worth?
Roughly £6 to £26 depending on condition, against £8 to £35 for skirts generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
What the fees would take elsewhere

Seller-side rates verified 26 Jul 2026, percentages only — the per-order and processing charges those platforms add are excluded, so the real gap is wider.
