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!

Professional site with excellent serviceFast delivery, fair prices and excellent service. Have used italist two times and absolutely pleased everytime. Could wish for more bags in Bottega Veneta and even more “saldi”, but really can’t complain :-)

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.
