02x01 - Episode 1

[bunniefuu]

Whoo! I'm Vicky Pattison.

Step into my preloved

fashion pop-up

Welcome to your wardrobe.

..with a very select guest list

Seeing it all laid out like this,

I'm like, "Yeah,

I definitely needed the help."

..of people embarking

on a new life chapter

Say your goodbyes now.

Bye-bye.

..and in search of

a new style to match.

Would you wear

the yellow with that? Yeah. OK.

I would never have thought

of trying something like this.

We've tasked two

of the UK's fiercest stylists

to give them a fresh look

using only preloved fashion

Right, come on, let's go.

Come on. Let's do it.

..but - brutal twist

Ooh.

..each guest can only choose

one stylist's collection to keep.

I'm pleased I'm not in your shoes.

I don't know which way

this is going to go.

It's such a hard decision.

Coming up

A rainbow queen preparing

for a career change.

I'm going to be training

as a dance psychotherapist.

And a hairdresser

who will ONLY wear black.

I've got my sister's wedding

coming up

and she's got, like,

a colour theme going on.

She really did not consider you

at all there, did she?

This is Second-hand Showdown.

All right.

Meet Ellie,

a 23-year-old nurse from Bristol.

Let's just say my sister Ellie

loves a bit of colour

and she's always dressing

in mad prints.

The last few years

have been tricky for her

but now she's about to embark

on a new career

and I'd love to see her

get a wardrobe makeover

and she starts this new chapter

of her life.

I'm going to be training to be

a dance movement psychotherapist.

I have had a lot of history

of body issues,

not being comfortable

in my own skin.

I just suffered quite a lot

with anorexia nervosa

when I was at uni.

So I'm very particular about

the type of style of clothes.

Ellie's making her way

to my preloved palace,

where we've secretly prepared

the clothes she no longer wants

to be sold online,

so someone else can love them.

Hi.

I'm Vicky.

I'm Els. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

Ellie, welcome to your wardrobe.

I can't believe I'm actually

seeing all my clothes.

First of all, it makes me realise

how addicted I am.

I was looking at this wall

this morning,

and I was like, "Whoever I'm going

to meet is fun and quirky."

I do like a bit of colour,

I have to admit.

It's got me kind of wondering, babe,

why do you want the change?

Because this, to me, is you.

I started my nursing training

in 2018

and myself and my best friend

had to go on to Covid units

and Covid wards, not knowing

what we were going to see,

and it took a toll a lot

emotionally and mentally.

I want to just change a little bit.

It's a fresh start for me

and someone else as well.

Someone else gets to enjoy

these clothes

as much as I've enjoyed them.

It's a really nice way

of looking at it.

And we want a wardrobe

that doesn't leave behind

any of your beautiful spirit,

your colourful soul,

your quirkiness.

But it needs to represent

this new chapter

and leave all of these potentially

negative things in the past.

Yeah, definitely.

So next,

I have two fabulous stylists

who are going to show you

some outfits that they've pulled

that they think would be perfect

for this next step

you're about to take.

Amazing. Can't wait.

This dance montage

can mean only one thing.

Introducing our

two incredible in-house stylists -

Sabrina Grant and Joey Bevan.

They've styled some

of the world's biggest celebs

and are both absolute pros

at shopping preloved.

I am absolutely obsessed

with preloved fashion.

My favourite bit is when

they're looking in the mirror

and they see themselves

for the first time

in a look that I've put together

for them.

I love fashion.

I think you can have

so much fun by expressing

who you are

with the clothes that you wear.

We've estimated how much

Ellie's clothes will fetch online

and given Sabrina and Joey the same

amount to spend on preloved pieces.

I want to bring in

some sporty elements

that are still stylish

for Ellie.

Ellie is the perfect person

for me to style

because she is already

very adventurous, which I love,

so this is going to be

a great task for me.

Only one collection

will go home with Ellie,

and the pressure to impress

starts now.

We're going to have one winner

at the end of the day. Yeah, me.

Oh, it's like the Hunger Games

of fashion. Yeah.

I'm getting sweaty behind the knees.

Shall we get this show on the road?

Let's go. OK, are you ready?

I've got me trusty coin

to help me decide who goes first.

Eh, we're all buzzin'

like old fridges. Let's do it.

Not sure why I'm doing the coin

toss. I can't even catch a cold.

It's Sabrina.

ALL EXCLAIM

Yes! Good luck.

Take a seat. Come on, guys,

let's go. Let's go.

While Joey susses out

the competition from his corner,

Sabrina's going to show Ellie

what she's got to offer

in her style studio.

I want to show you the first piece,

which I just Go for it.

..couldn't wait

..which is this.

ELLIE GASPS

I love that.

Pink and orange together.

You've got it in your hair.

Do you know what? it's giving me

Freddie Mercury. Really?

Also, orange again. Oh, bright.

OK?

So this kind of gives it

a bit of an elevated feel.

How do you think?

I've not really worn dresses

in a really long time just

because of, like, body image

and issues with that.

So this might be really

liberating for me.

It's all trial and error.

We're dressing up. Exactly.

It's all about how we feel

at the end of the day,

so that's really important.

We've got some cute,

very cute, graphic tees for you.

Ooh, that's cute. OK, cherries

Cherries. ..are very in.

I've got some cherries in.

Oh, yeah, matching.

So that is very, very sweet.

I really like those because

they can go with anything as well.

Joey, are you quaking

in your boots over there?

I'm feeling

very confident right now,

but, you know, it's nice, it's nice.

Am I doing good?

Yes, very well done. Well done, you.

Right. I feel like you are someone

who can definitely pull off

Where are my sunglasses?

..a sequined Exactly.

..sequins on a weekday.

It actually feels

really soft as well

because you didn't think

that sequins would feel soft,

but they feel good.

We've also got a couple of skirts.

OK?

I love this skirt. It's denim.

It's like hiding stuff.

It's patterned in there.

That's lovely.

Business in front, party

in the back. Party in the back.

Party in the back. And then I've got

a jacket for you, darling.

A nice long leather

Matrix. Yeah. Oh, I love that.

I think we should get trying on.

Yeah, absolutely.

Ellie has to pick two

of Sabrina's looks to try on.

Can't wait to see her in them.

How are you getting on?

Are you done?

Yeah, good. Do you want to see?

Yeah. Come on out, babe.

ALL SQUEAL

Yes. OK.

I'm like a human disco ball.

Yep.

It's really nice. I really like it.

I like how simplistic

the top is as well,

because this is just not

what I would normally pick.

I'm just going

to grab something, OK?

The jacket was practically new,

so you're paying like a fraction

of the price for a beautiful piece.

I like it because it hides,

and you're likewham! Mm-hm.

I absolutely love these trousers.

A little itchy on the bum,

but it doesn't matter.

Are you ready, Ellie? Coming out.

Come on, then.

ALL EXCLAIM

How do you feel? Yeah. I mean, like,

uncomfortable, because it's a dress

and it's not normally what I would

wear at this time in my life,

but I can appreciate it on.

I know it's pushed you out of

your comfort zone a little bit.

But I think you look amazing.

Sabrina's done really well

and she's taken me

out of my comfort zone a lot,

so Joey's got to watch out.

I was getting a bit worried

about how quiet Joey's been,

but I know that face -

this is a man with a plan.

Come on, son, let's hear it.

Welcome to Joey's style hub.

Give it to me. It's a bit of

a different First of all,

I wanted to go for something

a little bit more

sort of like funky street wear

that you can wear when you

go and do your dance therapy.

Yeah. So I've got you some Ooh.

..cool tracksuit bottoms.

I love that. Sporty Spice.

And I have got stuff

like a real oversized hoodie

Nice. ..which I feel like you could

possibly wear. I love an oversized.

And then the last

is my favourite piece

I'm quite excited about that.

..which is this oversized beaut

here.

I could play chess on that.

I know that you do like

a baggy pant.

I love I love a baggy pant.

And then, just to make it

a little bit more like mature,

we've got a plain white

school shirt. Oh.

And then the final one

I heard a rumour

that you have always liked

the idea of co-ord sets.

I've got you this one

cos I love the print on it. Yeah.

And I feel like you could,

you know, also wear it separate.

I really like that.

You can dress it up, dress it down.

I think you've smashed that one,

Joey.

I've got something

to really funk this up.

Oh.

Boom! Wow. Ooh.

So it's still got

that amazing colour that you like.

Love it. So should we try some

things on? I'm really excited.

Yes, let's do it.

I love this bit too.

Can't wait to see the two outfits

Ellie picks to try on.

Come on, Ellie,

let's see what you look like.

ALL EXCLAIM AND LAUGH

Oh, I love it, it's so cool.

Right, let's put this on

because I think you're going

to fall in love with this,

because it is a beautiful jacket.

And it's huge.

Because it's so big Hmm.

..you can - little trick is -

you can just come round here

and tighten up here -

what I do is - like a school tie.

Oh!

I feel like I'm a detective.

Detective Els is on the case

in this coat.

Are you ready, darling?

I feel like I need to run in

in with this outfit. I love it.

I love it.

Let's try this coat on.

It was a steal, honestly. And it was

only worn a couple of times as well,

which is great.

But I have got a little surprise

for you

because I hear you like hats.

Love hats.

# Boom, boom! #

Ha!

It's a fun hat, isn't it?

It's lush.

Ellie has tried her favourite

two outfits

from both Sabrina and Joey.

Now all she has to do is decide

which collection

she wants to bag for keeps.

It's such a difficult decision.

I'm rubbish at choices.

Joey, Sabrina I don't know.

And coming up

We meet the man

who only wears black.

Who BLEEP died?

Will hairdresser Shay ever change?

I don't like it. What?

Earlier, Ellie, who wants a new look

for a career change,

tried on two outfits from Joey

and two outfits from Sabrina.

They've both absolutely smashed it

and I'm so grateful

that they've been able

to give this safe space for me

to be able to just try on clothes

and feel so much better

about myself.

But only one of them can win.

Time for me to get a sneak peek

at Ellie's chosen outfit.

Are you ready for the big reveal?

I'm scared. Let's go.

SHE EXCLAIMS

What do you think?

I love it.

And it's Joey's chessboard coat

and super-stretchy tracksuit

that have won Ellie over.

Pop the hat on.

Shall we go and deliver

the good news? Yes, let's.

Ellie knows Sabrina and Joey

are waiting

to see whose collection

she's chosen.

But what she doesn't know

is that her friends and family

have joined us too.

Ellie, get yourself out here, girl.

MUSIC PLAYING

Now that's the reaction

we were all hoping for.

Yeah!

You look so good.

Aw, I'm an emotional wreck.

Thank you so much. Thank you.

Aw, so happy. Amazing.

Thank you so much. You look

incredible, you look so good.

You look so good.

Obviously, Ellie looks amazing.

She has chosen an outfit

that was picked for her by Joey,

so he's the winner.

Thank you so much.

Joey's made up, and Sabrina now gets

to relist her collection online.

This outfit is a little bit too nice

to just go home,

so we would like you

to have a night out on us.

Aw, thank you so much.

You're so welcome.

I'm going to wear this.

Yeah, go, have fun,

paint the town red. Take

your gorgeous friends and family.

I think Els looks amazing.

That coat is going to be worn

for years to come.

They've really pushed

such a positive message

towards preloved fashion

and giving things

a new lease of life

and a new home on someone else.

I'm really excited

about this next chapter.

I'm going to be a funky

dance movement psychotherapist.

From Ellie's technicolour world,

a detour towards

some slightly more muted tunes.

Hi.

My friend Shay is so funny,

but his wardrobe

is so full of boring

and dull black colour clothing.

His sister's wedding is coming up,

and I really want him

to brighten up a bit

and dare him to wear

a pop of colour for the occasion.

Even my PJs are black.

Like, literally,

my flip-flops are black,

my sliders are black,

everything is black.

It's a lot of black.

Hello.

Oh, my God, Vicky!

It's so nice to meet you.

How are you?

I'm really good. How are you?

Yeah, really well, thank you.

Um, Shay

I have to ask

Who BLEEP died?

SHE LAUGHS

I mean, listen,

I'm not particularly

the most adventurous person

when it comes to me clothes,

but this shocked even me.

How do you feel when you see this

all set out like that?

Because it's pretty imposing.

I feel like I've come to that age

now where, like,

I need to get out of the colour

black and explore a little bit more.

So, I've got my sister's wedding

coming up Right.

..and she's got like

a colour theme going on.

There's loads of other colours

out there.

Are you ready to see your new life,

your new chapter,

your new colourful start?

Yeah, I think I'm ready.

Say it with a bit of confidence,

mate. I'm ready!

Yes! Come on!

I'm really excited.

I hope they put you in yellow pants.

Seriously, I can't wait to see what

Sabrina and Joey come up with

for Shay.

This is Sabrina.

This might be a bit of a challenge

for someone that just wears black.

And this is Joey.

I'm going to ease him in.

A little bit of a subtle look

with some creams,

neutrals, a bit of denim.

Joey and Sabrina

have estimated how much

Shay's wardrobe would fetch online

and used the same amount to create

a collection of preloved gems

for him to try.

They look all pally but both

stylists want to convince Shay

to pick THEIR collection.

To decide who goes first,

I've got my trusty coin. Right

Are you ready for this?

Yeah. OK.

It's Joey!

ALL EXCLAIM

Take a seat, Sabrina. I will.

I think Shay is about to have

his monochrome mind blown

by Joey's collection.

So, I've pulled some looks for you.

The good thing about

when you are looking online

is that you can go through and

you can choose different categories

on sizes and, of course, colour.

So I would say don't select black.

Easy as that!

So I wanted to show you this look,

which is a little bit more

of a casual look.

I've gone for, first of all,

a pair of navy cargo pants.

I've got some other things

that are like

coolprintedlooking T-shirts,

a hoodie in complete opposite -

into a cream -

with a little accessory bag,

and then a zip-up denim jacket.

So that's the first look.

I quite like that, actually.

Do you? Yeah.

And I hear that you've got

your sister's wedding coming up.

I have, yeah. So I've got

..to separate it up,

rather than wearing

a whole three-piece suit.

I have a waistcoat,

striped shirt and chinos.

That's nice. I like that.

And then I've got

a really cool vintage tie,

mixed with a nice suit jacket

with the matching check

that goes with your chinos.

I do like that blazer. It's cool,

isn't it? It's nice and fitted.

It's slim fit.

It's going to show your body off.

You're going to look great in that.

That suit looks brand-new!

I know. It was. Was it?

Still had the labels on it.

No! That's it. Get in!

So I've got you

some oversized dungarees.

I heard that there's a certain girl

group that you absolutely adore.

Oh, my God, I love the Spice Girls.

That's it.

And then to mix it up a little bit,

I went for a wool check jacket

just over the top of it

Oh, my God, I absolutely love that.

So I think what we'll do is

we'll grab all this

and we'll have you try it on.

The last time I wore colour

Wow, I can't even actually remember.

It's probably like what my mum

put me in when I was a little kid.

OK, Shay, are you ready to come out?

I am.

Oh, my God, like, seriously -

wait till you see yourself!

VICKY SQUEALS

It's so weird not seeing you

in black. Have a look.

Oh, my God.

You look so cool. You look so cool.

You've been wasted

wearing black for so long.

I don't know. What do you think?

Do you think it looks nice on me?

I think you look great.

I styled it, mate. Of course!

LAUGHTER

You look good.

I'm so far out of my comfort zone

right now wearing colour.

This feels really strange.

OK, Shay, are you ready to come out?

I am.

Excellent. Oh, you're going

to be shocked by this. Whoop! Whoo!

So, this is for

your sister's wedding.

I like it.

You like it?

I love it. You love it?

I actually really like it.

Aw, yes! High five.

No black. Done.

Now that Shay has seen everything

Joey has to offer,

it's time to check out

Sabrina's three outfits

before trying on his favourite two.

Come in, Shay.

Are you ready to be

Sab-stainably styled?

LAUGHTER

I am.

So, I've gone for a jacket,

but in colour.

OK? So a

nice little b*mber jacket there.

I love that.

Yeah? First impressions

of this, Shay.

I like it. I just can't wait to see

what it's going to look like on.

Yeah. Plain white tee

can go under that.

You could put a graphic tee under.

I'm starting you off, Shay.

I've got some dark baggy jeans

that can go with that.

But I've also got

another pair up here,

which are some sort of acid wash

Oooh. ..tie dye-y.

They've got some tears in there.

So that really brings in, you know,

that streetwear vibe. Yeah?

Yeah, that's definitely

giving me vibes.

VICKY SQUEALS

OK. That is amazing, and actually

this is part of a two-piece.

You've got a jacket

to go with that.

Ooh, that looks good.

Yeah? That looks good.

Are you bold enough? Yeah.

So I got this

..green

..green knit jumper. Yeah?

I'm not sure yet.

So, I've also sourced a suit

for you.

I couldn't even believe

how great this cost when I saw it,

and I nabbed it straight away.

Look at this.

VICKY GASPS

A sort of soft linen suit.

I've got a linen

I just love seeing your eyes when

I'm bringing you all the colour.

You're like, "Ooh." What are

you thinking? That's popping.

That colour is popping.

In case that is a bit bold,

have you got something else for him?

I do. When I see a guy doing a suit

and giving it a bit of this

underneath,

I'm all in. Yeah. Yeah.

Very tonal, very fresh.

I think you're going

to look amazing.

Ooh, Shay's love affair with black

might be on the rocks here.

Let's see his top two looks.

Shay, are you dressed yet? I am.

All right. Come on out, then.

Ooh!

Have a look.

Oh. I don't like it.

What?

I love it.

LAUGHTER

I got so excited

when he said he hated it.

I was like, "Oh, yes,

I've got a chance!"

This is definitely me.

I love it.

OK, whip that jacket off because

I did have this jacket as well.

Let's just see if this kind

of does something to the look.

Oh, come on!

Come on!

Give the other boys a chance, man!

How do you feel in that?

Yes. I like this as well.

Yeah? Yeah. This goes as well

with it.

Yeah. Definitely.

Let's get you into the suit.

Sure. Yeah? Let's do it.

Go back there.

I am so excited to see him

in a polo neck. Me too.

I love a fella in a polo neck.

I sort of feel like they look

like sexy little turtles.

LAUGHTER

Shay, are you ready? I am.

Come on out, baby.

VICKY GASPS

Ooh Oh, hello.

Hello!

You must be ill.

I must admit it,

I'm a bit sour over here.

I feel like I'm ready

for my sister's wedding.

Yeah. I feel like you are.

Like, literally.

You look a million dollars.

Yeah. Right, Shay

You have tried on some

gorgeous preloved outfits today

and, in my opinion,

you looked great in everything.

But the decision's not mine.

It's yours.

And you've got to make it now.

Will it be Sabrina

or will it be Joey?

This is a really difficult decision.

Joey and Sabrina -

both of their outfits

looked absolutely amazing.

It's really, really hard to pick.

Well, you can't have both, Shay.

I can't wait to see

whose collection wins

and whose will be

getting relisted online.

# Bam-chica-wow-wow! #

You look so cool.

Thank you. How do you feel?

I feel amazing.

Shall we do the reveal?

Yes, please.

Introducing

the brand-newpreloved stud

Boom.

How cute! We're double-denim twins.

I'm actually lost for words.

Like, seriously. I love that.

Young, fun, vibrant, super cool.

You were wasted in black.

Shall we go and break the news

to the stylists? Let's do it.

Come on.

So, Sabrina has won over

our sexy turtle.

But Shay's in for a surprise,

because little does he know

his best friend Sheldon

has been invited to join us

for the big reveal.

Sheldon, welcome.

How are you guys feeling?

Excited but nervous.

Shay, come on out.

MUSIC PLAYING

Surprise!

That looks nice.

Nobody told me you were coming.

Turn around.

You look really nice in that.

What do you think?

Sabrina, you really understood

the assignment on this one.

Shay It's a vibe.

LAUGHTER

Wow, he looks amazing.

And out of that black, boring colour

and coming to something colourful.

I'm absolutely buzzing that you've

gone for me and this fantastic look.

And obviously you're not

just taking this home.

You're taking the whole collection

that I got for you home with you

to have some fun with.

You also get to go

and have a little night out on us.

Oh, my God, thank you so much.

Sheldon, you can go and have

some fun with him.

Sabrina, why don't you go as well?

Unfortunately, Joey,

because on this occasion,

Shay did pick Sabrina's outfits,

you need to put all yours

back online,

cos even though Shay didn't pick

them, someone else might love them.

I've never shopped preloved before,

but you've definitely converted me

out of the black,

and a pop of colour is definitely

going to be entering my life now.

Definitely.

It's one-all. I'm happy with that.

I'm happy with that. Yeah.

That's a good day. Until next time.

Until next time, baby. Yeah.
