And it’s not just ordinary folk that are getting in on the act.

Celebs and fashionistas also flog their wares on the pre-loved platform – including Made in Chelsea star GeorgiaToffolo.

The I’m a Celeb winner has teamed up with Vinted to provide tips to help people get minted on the site.

The Vinted team says Georgia is one of their stellar sellers with a 100 per cent, five-star selling record.

And one of the telly beauty’s top tips is selling items that work together as a full outfit.

Georgia, 29, who has been in a relationship with the Scottish former founder of Brewdog James Watt since last year, said: “If you’re selling a few items that work really well together as an outfit, mention them in your description and point people towards your other items.

“This simple cross-selling tactic increases views of your other items and boosts your chances of selling more items.

“Even better, if you’re taking photos modelling a top, you might want to style it with a pair of trousers you’re selling too, and take a full length shot.

“This way, buyers might want to buy the exact outfit, not just the single item, since you’re already selling both.”

Georgia, who recently spoke of her love for Scotland on a trip round the country with her 39-year-old tycoon boyfriend, also said it’s best to model the items yourself, rather than take a lacklustre snap of them lying on the floor or hanging up.

She said: “Clothes are meant to be worn, so if you feel comfortable, take additional photos or selfies of yourself wearing those items – you can always crop out your face and any identifying features in your home.

” It really helps to show how the item sits on the body and gives the buyer a better idea of the “fit” and sizing, and how it could look on them.

“Remember to take pictures in good natural daylight, or use a ring light if you need some extra help.”

And while the pics are important, getting the wording right is also key, says Georgia.

She said: “What you write in your description is equally important, so put the effort in.

“After all, when buying online, people are using words and filters to search.

“Always give more info about the condition, if there’s any damage (however minor), add measurements and sizes (as you can’t always tell from a photo), and it helps to share your size/height and whether the fit comes up big, small, or is spot-on.

“Also, if your item fits into a certain fashion trend or style, definitely mention it e.g. Y2K, boyfriend jeans, quiet luxury.”

Do you need to pay tax on items sold on Vinted?

QUICK facts on tax from the team at Vinted...

  • The only time that an item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is profit (sells for more than you paid for it). Even then, you can use your capital gains tax-free allowance of £3,000 to offset it.
  • Generally, only business sellers trading for profit (buying goods with the purpose of selling for more than they paid for them) might need to pay tax. Business sellers who trade for profit can use a tax-free allowance of £1,000, which has been in place since 2017.
