Launched in 2000 by Natalie Massenet, Net-a-Porter introduced a new way to shop for designer fashion with its appearance. The e-commerce pioneer has come a long way from a pile of boxes in Massenet’s London flat to a global multi-brand, multi-channel luxury retailer with a revenue of $922m.
After a merger in 2015, Net-a-Porter is now part of the YOOX Net-a-Porter Group and continues to be one of the most popular fashion shopping destinations globally. The home of luxury fashion, Net-a-Porter offers 800 leading designer brands, such as Alexander McQueen, Saint Lauren, Gucci, Prada, and Jimmy Choo, to name a few, as well as 200 specialist beauty brands. New arrivals are available three times a week so you have all the latest trends hot off the runway at your fingertips.

Whatever style you’re shopping for, Net-a-Porter will have just the piece for you.

Planning an exciting vacation, invited to a wedding, or just looking to refresh your capsule wardrobe, there’s a style for all your needs and preferences.
You can filter your search by category and shop for essentials like coats, dresses, jeans, skirts, or even swimwear, as well as color if you have a specific preference. If you have particular fashion houses in mind, chances are they will be featured so just limit your search to them. Shop staples from Gucci, Burberry, Valentino, Prada, Loewe or explore the offerings by trending designers like Acne Studios, The Frankie Shop, and On. When it comes to sizes, there is a wide choice here, too, so everyone can find the right fit.
From comfortable leather sneakers for your everyday adventures to a pair of stilettos for a special event, at Net-a-Porter, there is a designer shoe style for an effortless yet chic edit. High-tops, mid-tops, colorful, all-white classics, sporty, leather, canvas, suede, or chunky platforms - the range of sneakers spans from super comfortable to super luxe.
A pair of iconic 'Maysale' mules from Manolo Blahnik for timeless chic or Chloé's 'Nama' sandals inspired by classic hiking styles for a chunky lift – these are just some of the options available at Net-a-Porter. The slingback pumps by Amina Muaddi look like works of art, resting on the sculptural fluted heels, while Loro Piana slippers bring a summery casual feel while still being smart enough to pop on for a day in the city.
Does the perfect handbag exist? If it does, you’re likely to find it at Net-a-Porter. The go-to destination for fashion trends, naturally, offers a variety of styles when it comes to your trusty companion, the handbag. From roomy tote bags that will fit all your belongings to hands-free crossbody styles - the range here will help you find the perfect marriage of practicality and luxury.
With brands such as Ralph Lauren, Givenchy, and Ferragamo offering an array of styles in neutral tones and classic black hues, styling your chosen purse has never been simpler. But, should you happen to be looking for a pop of color, you will find your arm candy in bright fuschia or lime green. For an everyday ladies' bag, Saint Lauren's 'Loulou' bag is a classic choice, while See By Chloe and Bottega Veneta have cemented their status of luxury accessories, offering expertly crafted quality leather handbags.
Looking for an iconic piece that speaks elegance and power? Net-a-Porter features an exquisite selection of Cartier watches, including the Panthère de Cartier, a masterfully crafted watch from 18-karat rose gold and stainless steel whose dial is framed by glistening diamonds. You can also shop the Hermès classics such as Nantucket Dual Time and Cape Cod blending uncompromising Swiss-made quartz movement with the understated elegance of materials like silver, mother of pearl, and diamonds.
Or, if you'd like to steer away from traditional dials, why not opt for the Gucci 'Grip' edit that has been inspired by the world of skateboarding in the '70s? With windows that reveal the hour and minute, this timepiece has been manufactured in Switzerland with a gold PVD-plated stainless steel case and bracelet, both etched with the house logo.
