Pre-Loved Podcast: Classic Coco
Alright, let’s talk about today’s show -- today’s show is with Alexandra, the founder of Classic Coco. Alexandra is a vintage dealer, working with the rarest Chanel vintage handbags and jewelry in the world.
She’s been working in the fashion industry for over a decade, specializing in the resale of vintage authentic Chanel accessories.
Alexandra is also an attorney, and her authentication skills come from years of experience working in the resale industry, as well as from years of studying the Chanel trademark and its designs. She has translated all of these skills into Classic Coco where her mission is to educate retail buyers about incorporating vintage luxury into their resale buying experience.
We talk about vintage Chanel, a bit of brand history, sourcing and authenticating rare luxury pieces, and even wholesaling. All that and more on today’s show!
Alright, let’s dive right into the show!
