The influence of the covid 19 pandemic on Indian fashion customers, the rise of Eco-conscious shopping, and mindful buyers are recorded here. The relationship between the purchase intentions, the new norm of sustainability is also considered. Covid 19 pandemic with no doubt has rapidly swept over the nation and has been a challenging time for all. Even though it has successfully induced fear, worry, and concerns in people’s mindset there have also been some positive changes that have happened. With most of the world in isolation, it has made people aware of the situation which caused us to be in this condition and re-think our relationship with the environment. It has drawn a realization that we are capable of global, collective action and we can add value in building healthier ecosystems by making few alterations in our lifestyle. The research highlighted the shift in attitude and belief of the customers to accept and adapt to the concept of thrifting was caused by the covid 19 pandemic.
