Breaking News: The Rise of a Vintage Fashion Enthusiast in Sainte-Colombe-la-Cominator
June 27, 2025 – In a groundbreaking move, 27-year-old Lena Lepreux, known as Fleen, is transforming the way people in Sainte-Colombe-la-Cominator (Eure) think about second-hand fashion. Her mission to break stereotypes and promote sustainable fashion has caught the attention of the local community and beyond.
From Thrift Shops to YouTube: Lena’s Journey
Lena Lepreux’s love for second-hand clothing began at a young age, influenced by her grandmother who frequented clothing sales. Today, she is a prominent figure in the vintage fashion scene, known for her unique finds and passion for sustainable fashion. Her hunting grounds include the Red Cross, Emmaus, and local garage sales, where she discovers hidden gems and shares them with her followers.
Under the pseudonym Lenzy, Lena has built a strong presence on YouTube, where she posts hauls and showcases her latest finds. Her account, “Petite Mode Grand Impact,” is gaining traction on the Vinted app, where she sells her vintage treasures at the prices she finds them, without any additional margin.
Sustainable Fashion: A Growing Trend
The phenomenon of fast fashion is increasingly criticized, and many are turning to sustainable alternatives. Lena believes that the popularity of second-hand clothing is driven by influencers on social networks and the growing awareness of the deplorable conditions under which many clothes are produced. She aims to break the clichés associated with second-hand shopping and prove that it can be a stylish and sustainable choice.
A Community Effort: Lena’s Association
Recently, Lena founded her own association to promote sustainable fashion. On July 26, 2025, she will host an event in the village hall of Sainte-Colombe-la-Commondaneie, featuring local associations, creators, fashion shows, and more. The event is non-commercial, with free entry and no fees for exhibitors, aiming to create a united and original meeting around sustainable fashion.
Future Plans and Impact
If the event is successful, Lena plans to make it an annual event, further cementing her role as a leader in the sustainable fashion movement. Her story is a testament to the power of passion and community, proving that second-hand fashion can be both stylish and sustainable.
