How to Use a Luxury Shopping App

A luxury shopping app brings dozens of designer brands and boutiques into one place, with tools a physical store does not offer -- wishlists, price alerts, and side-by-side comparisons. Here is how to get the most out of one.

  1. Download the app and create an account

    Install the app from your phone's app store and sign up with a phone number or a simple login option.

  2. Browse brand storefronts and categories

    Explore items through the home screen's brand pages, curated collections, and category menus.

  3. Save items and set price alerts

    Add an item to your wishlist to get a push notification when it goes on sale or its price drops.

  4. Check the authentication process for the listing

    Read the product page's explanation of how that item was inspected and what the inspection result covers.

  5. Why this is worth it

    You can compare items across many designer brands and boutiques in one app, and wishlist alerts help you catch a sale or price drop instead of missing it.

Track your orders and returns from your account page

Delivery status and return or exchange requests are handled from the order history section of your account. Return windows and conditions can vary by item category, so it is worth checking the listing's return policy before you order.

New, pre-owned, and refurbished items look similar -- check the label

A luxury shopping app usually sells more than brand-new stock; pre-owned and refurbished items often appear in the same search results. Always check the condition label on the product page rather than assuming everything listed is new, since the price and return policy can differ significantly between them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the app only sell brand-new items?

No. Most luxury shopping apps sell pre-owned and refurbished items alongside new stock, so check the condition label on each product page before ordering.

How do I get notified about a price drop?

Tap the wishlist or save button on a product page, and the app will send a push notification if that item later goes on sale or drops in price.
