It has built out a loyal customer-base of 18 to 25 year olds in the UK and US. Launched in Italian startup incubator H-farm by Simon Beckerman, Depop became successful through word of mouth. Its first break was in the UK in the late-2010s, with vintage clothing shops already seeing more foot traffic than at any point in the past. Depop designed its app to be an Instagram for shopping, with an emphasis on high-quality photos of people wearing the item. This spawned a new type of [influencer seller](https://graziadaily.co.uk/fashion/news/can-now-shop-favourite-celebs-wardrobes-depop/), or [“side-hustlers”](https://www.theverge.com/22580446/depop-online-vintage-sales-business-algorithm-dangers), who buy cheap items at thrift stores and then sell them at higher prices on Depop. \- Advertisement - Even though Depop has grown into a cultural phenomenon in some corners, it is rather unknown or unused by those over 35.
