Great Selection of Couture Clothing, Shoes & BagsI was surprised to see the Rochas embroidered velvet bag which matched my Platforms as shown on the Runway. My purchase arrived in the US just a few days, and it was breathtaking in its beauty and brand new condition. I frequently shop through StyleBook and The Italist is a Starred Place I visit. Highly recommend for Couture goods.

Easy shopping & great priceThe site was very easy to navigate, I found exactly what I was looking for, placing my order was simple and the coat that I ordered was shipped and delivered within days, with duty included! This site will be one of the first places that I shop from now on!

Great shopping experienceI ran across Italist.com site while doing a specific search on the internet for a Dolce and Gabanna item. They didn't have the item I was looking for, but I browsed there sale items while I was there. The site works well and I enjoyed the shopping experience. I found a great pair of shoes that I ordered. The check out and delivery for the site was easy. The delivery arrived actually faster than I expected. I didn't have to contact customer service, which I consider a real bonus.
