Now, please keep in mind that this list is NOT meant to be all-inclusive.  What's hot and what's not fluctuates often.  Also, some brands may sell wonderfully for one seller, and bomb for another seller.  A lot of your success selling clothing & related accessories on eBay is going to be completely unrelated to the BRAND you are selling.  Condition and age of the item also play a big part in the value of an item.  Know your product. For example - many of the higher end designer labels are widely faked.  If you don't know how to tell the real deal, then you are better off to stick to what you know.  Good photos and an accurate description that includes measurements will go a long way to maximize your profits.

The above list contains brand names that have proven to sell consistently over time for many sellers, and I hope they will for you, too!

Shop in my store!

Good luck!
