Looking to shop second-hand for your favorite luxury brands such as Balenciaga, Fendi, Hermès, Chanel, Cartier and more? We have the place for you.
Fashionphile has just opened its new authentication center and showroom in N.Y.C. this week. Located in the Starlett-Lehigh building in West Chelsea, this 60,000 sq. ft. space is full of pre-loved designer handbags and accessories in near perfect condition. It joins the company’s Madison Avenue showroom which debuted in 2018.
If you’re not already familiar with Fashionphile, the California-based leading pre-owned re-commerce company is focused on selling ultra-luxury pieces, think Hermès Birkin bags, watches from Rolex and Patek Philippe, jewelry from Cartier and more.
The N.Y.C. new location provides an interactive resale experience where customers won’t only be able to shop the selection of designer finds, but sell items to Fashionphile as well.
The interactive resale experience allows consumers to see how the company authenticates its items while they shop. It’s also home to one of the largest collection of Hermès Birkin bags in the world, which are stored in a high-security, climate-controlled storage area called “The Cage” (which can hold up to 15,000 luxury handbags and accessories!).
To celebrate its new East coast experience, the company hosted a glamorous night with a celebrity turnout, including actresses Katie Holmes and Brooke Shields. (Shields also brought along her daughters Rowan Francis Henchy and Grier Hammond Henchy.)
For Holmes, she’s already been a longtime fan. “I love that shopping second-hand is becoming so popular again,” the actress said in a release. “I like shopping at Fashionphile because they have the largest inventory of pre-owned, ultra-luxury accessories and their authentication process is unmatched.”
If you’re not near the N.Y.C. area, Fashionphile has an exclusive re-commerce partnership with Neiman Marcus. There are 10 Selling Studio locations (and more to come) inside Neiman Marcus stores across the country, where consumers could bring their luxury items to sell through Fashionphile. If the price is agreed upon, they can sell it there and leave with a Neiman Marcus gift card.
Whether you are selling or purchasing, Fashionphile is the place to go for all your second-hand luxury needs.
