Pre-owned items are articles of clothing that have been retired from someone else closet. 

Pre-owned items already exist, so they require no additional resources and energy to create, contributing zero additional carbon emissions, pollution, and other environmental damages. Additionally, Pre-owned garments are being saved from being thrown away. Around €150 million worth of textile waste goes to landfill and waste each year. Buying pre-owned garments gives clothing second lives, building circularity in the fashion industry, and shortening the demand for new garments.

Pre-owned garments are also often more special because they are often one of a kind because they aren’t sold commercially anymore. They can make your wardrobe more unique, showing your individuality.

Pre-owned items help you reduce the impact of your purchase and close the loop. Around €150 million worth of textile waste goes to landfill and waste each year. By choosing pre-owned items you are keeping them in circle for longer.

Returning items is possible within 14 calendar days. Returning the item is at your own expenses.

Few-of-a-kind™ womenswear shop funded by Ruby, a New York City & Copenhagen based girl. Ruby's pieces are made of truly upcycled vintage fabric remnants dating 1930-1999 with zero-impact on the environment. You're not shopping – you're recycling

The brand carries size XS-XL off-hand, but it also does made-to-order for ALL sizes -- plus-size welcome!

Girl of the Earth is 100% women-owned and women manufactured. The founder Ruby, grew up in downtown Manhattan to antique-dealer parents, so "I inherited and cultivated relationships with vintage suppliers, flea market owners, eccentric grandmas, and just plain hoarders, who I buy gorgeous old fabric from. This supply chain is super unconventional and requires my life-long expertise, and a lot of luck, but basically I'm just really really good at shopping" says Ruby

How the founder Ruby says, Girl of the Earth is a one-woman show!

Every piece is made from vintage fabrics dating 1930-1999. Ruby, the founder, sources these personally using her lifelong knowledge. These leftover pieces of fabric are so small that other brands would never bother to use them. Ruby, the founder says "I understand why— it's a super time-intensive business model. I am always spending way too much time negotiating prices, inspecting fabrics' condition, and giving my seamstress complex instructions about which remnants are for which styles"

Ethically and locally made in NY by the brand's legendary seamstress Cici

Show some thigh. These are the best vintage knee boots to style with our shorts and mini skirts. Circa 1970s. Genuine leather. Almond toe. Pull-on (no closure). Comfortable 2.5 inch heel. Show subtle wear (but still have a lot of life left in them!) Fits a modern US 7.5 or narrow 8, and 14 inches maximum around the top of the shaft's calf. If in doubt about size, round up (vintage boots are usually smaller and more narrow than modern ones).
Not your size? Shop our entire perfectly curated collection of vintage knee boots.
*Please note this is post-consumer deadstock, aka a fancy way of saying recycled and sometimes pre-owned (zero environmental impact). This means the condition can vary (though we only curate pieces that are in excellent condition). Each girl of the earth vintage piece is one-in-a-million (if not one-of-a-kind), and can only be purchased by a single customer— avoid matching strangers 💁‍♀️

Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products of better quality and environmental value. 

Upcycling artists are inspired by the textile waste they see, which is almost an unlimited resource at this point. They create with the intention to use what is already here. This process is important in the circular fashion movement, because it makes use of discarded textiles, giving these materials second lives. 

Because discarded textiles are not typically sheets of fabric, but rather articles of discarded clothing, a lot of creativity is required to transform materials into new fashionable pieces. This challenge is exciting for upcycling artists, as they are driven and inspired to create with what is in front of them and often don’t have much to lose in the process, since discarded materials are readily available and cheap. Because of this, upcycled clothing is often unique as each piece has been thoughtfully crafted into a new garment.

This product is made by creatively upcycling materials that would otherwise go to waste. This makes better use of resources like deadstock fabrics: leftovers from big production that are saved by re-using them.
