When it comes to making new purchases, there are always several factors to consider: how often you'll wear it, whether it goes with the rest of your closet, and so on. But there's one important element you might not be putting much thought into: how much it will be worth on the resale market. Given fashion's fast-paced, cyclical nature, not everything in your closet will stand the test of time, and you may want to get some money for it down the line—which is when fashion girls flock to Poshmark in droves.

According to data collected from over three million Poshmark sellers, these five brands are the most in-demand and have strong resale values: Everlane, Hunter, David Yurman, Rag & Bone, and Ray-Ban. So if you're thinking of making a splurge on any of these brands, you probably can't go wrong.

Poshmark data also revealed the most-listed items among West Coast users: Free People dresses, Lululemon tops, Levi's jeans, and Gucci bags. For East Coasters, it's Zara dresses, J Brand jeans, J.Crew tops, and Michael Kors bags. Are these findings different than you'd expect? Read on to shop our favorite picks from in-demand brand Everlane.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
