SECONDE VIE
Our pre-loved project
Because our products are made to last and stay just as beautiful through multiple lives, we launched our second-hand project in 2022: we collect your pre-loved Ysé pieces to give them a Seconde Vie—a second life.
HOW IT WORKS
In our ongoing commitment to developing a more circular approach, we collect Ysé pieces you no longer wear to give them a Seconde Vie. Find out how you can take part.
1. Drop off your items
Bring your pre-loved Ysé treasure to one of our French boutiques (excluding department stores).
Find all our return conditions on this page.
2. Receive your reward
In return, you’ll receive a Ysé gift card worth €10 to €30 per item, depending on the product type.
3. Buy a Second-hand Piece
After a little freshening up, your former Ysé favourites enjoy a second life in our Rennes boutique — all year round — and in our occasional pop-up shops.

Inside, you’ll find our iconic pieces and this season’s new arrivals, as well as — for the very first time — a dedicated space to highlight our circular economy project: La seconde vie.

Where to Drop Them Off
Drop off
Ysé swimwear and ready-to-wear in good or very good condition.
For lingerie, we take back tops in good or very good condition, and for hygiene reasons, only bottoms and bodysuits that are new and unworn.
Only Ysé products—with a Ysé label—are accepted. Items from collaborations with other brands (Sézane, Tajinebanane, Souleiado, Lucas du Tertre) that carry a different brand label cannot be returned.
Swimwear, ready-to-wear, and lingerie tops: Items must be clean, dry, and in good or very good condition—meaning no stains, odors, or signs of wear (e.g., stretched-out swimwear, damaged fastenings).
Lingerie bottoms and bodysuits: They must be new and unworn.
There is no limit to the number of items you can drop off per person.
No, only Ysé products - with a Ysé label - are accepted. Products in collaboration with another brand (Sézane, Tajinebanane, Souleiado, Lucas du Tertre) and therefore with another brand's label cannot be registered.
Drop-offs are available in all our French shops, excluding corners (Le Bon Marché and Galeries Lafayette Haussmann). Discover our addresses.
Gift cards
In exchange for the collected items, you will receive a Ysé gift card by e-mail. It will be valid on the new collection and second hand products for a period of 1 year.
The amounts of the gift cards are as follows:

No, the discount vouchers are valid on our e-shop or in the Ysé stores. They can be used as soon as you drop off your swimwear.
Resale
After being handed in, compliant pieces are entrusted to the hands of fairy-like experts who handle laundry, repairs, and enhancements.
Pieces that ultimately don’t meet the standards will be donated or recycled depending on their condition.
Yes, Seconde vie clothes and lingerie are available to buy all year round in our Rennes boutique.
We will also be offering Seconde vie items at our Seconde vie pop-ups. We will let you know the dates of the next pop-ups very soon.
The lingerie, swimwear, and clothing offered for resale at our Seconde vie pop-ups come from the pieces you drop off throughout the year at our French boutiques (excluding corners) or from defective items that we repair.
The lingerie pieces available at our pop-ups are also from defective models that have been restored.
