What holds its value across Urban Outfitters
- Homeware and decorative pieces, which are bought for a specific look and are hard to replace once discontinued
- House-brand pieces from discontinued ranges, which cannot be bought new
- Anything from a collaboration, which was made in small numbers
- Records and audio equipment from its lifestyle range, which sell to a different buyer entirely
What pulls Urban Outfitters resale value down
- Current-season house-brand clothing, which is discounted often and has a shallow resale floor
- Thin jersey that has stretched or bobbled, which is the common quality complaint
- Faded prints on graphic pieces, which is how printed casualwear ends
- Damaged homeware, which is bought on looks and so shows every chip and mark
Identifying and dating yours
- Say whether a piece is a house brand or a stocked label, since the two sell completely differently
- Photograph homeware from several angles in daylight, because condition is most of the price on decorative items
- The interior label names the house brand, which is what buyers search
What lifts any midi skirt, whatever the label
Midi lengths sell year-round, which makes them steadier than seasonal pieces, though supply is heavy.
- Structured fabrics that hold a shape
- Pleats that are still sharp
- Designer and contemporary labels
- Full linings in good condition
And what pulls one down
- Pleats that have dropped or lost definition
- Bobbling on knitted midi skirts
- Stretched waistbands
- Very trend-specific prints
Working out what yours is worth
- Check pleats are still sharp and evenly spaced
- Inspect the waistband for stretching
- Measure the waist and full length
What to state in the listing
- Waist, hip and waist-to-hem length in centimetres
- Fabric composition and whether it is lined
- Cut: A-line, bias, pleated or straight
- Whether there is a slit, and the fastening type
Fabric, style and length: “Satin Bias Cut Midi Skirt, Sage, Size 10, 78cm”. Put the centimetre length in the title — on different heights a midi becomes a maxi or a knee-length, and that mismatch is the main reason these come back.
Preparing and photographing it
- Measure the flat waist, hip and length from waistband to hem.
- Check the zip, any slit, and whether the skirt is lined.
- Look at the hem for wear and the fabric for pulls, especially on knits and satins.
- Full length on a hanger or laid flat, front
- A tape running waistband to hem
- The fabric close up, showing texture and drape
- The zip, lining and any snag or mark
When it sells best, and handing it over
Strongest spring through summer with a second lift before the party season. Satin and pleated styles sell fastest.
Light and cheap to post. Fold with tissue for satin and bias cuts, which crease sharply.
What buyers ask
Does Urban Outfitters clothing hold value?
The house brands only modestly. The homeware and stocked third-party labels do better, so identify which you have before pricing.
How should I sell decorative homeware?
Photograph it in daylight from several angles, including any chips or marks. It is bought entirely on appearance, so the photographs are the listing.
How much is an Urban Outfitters midi skirt worth?
Roughly £10 to £42 depending on condition, against £10 to £40 for midi skirts generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
