Being in a recession doesn’t have to mean giving up luxury. My former ad-director at Lucky Magazine has recently launched a new online retail platform, along with fellow industry power players- designers, editors, and fashion magazine executives. DesignerSocial is a members only online boutique featuring a carefully edited collection of new handbags and accessories, samples, and consignment items at “to the trade” prices (like that amazing Jackie O Monogrammed Gucci bag for $890 $195…um, want it. now.)
The best thing about the site is the ability to not only purchase products by designers such as Gucci, Botkier, YSL and more, but to also trade-in/sell your luxury handbags and accessories through their sell feature. DS creates an exclusive and secure selling environment for a private community of fashion insiders.
To apply for membership you can go to the DesignerSocial site and sign up with the email of a referring member (feel free to use bianca@biancarocksout.com).
