Just because your contact with the outside world is suffering, doesn’t mean your wardrobe should. Luxury e-commerce has become a powerhouse of a sector within the retail experience over the past decade, and now is as good a time as any to cash in the chips these online bazaars can offer.
Apart from the obvious draw of whiling away some of those long ‘ol hours via the comfort of retail therapy, searching for exclusives online also comes with the bonus you’re less likely to see your mate Matty down the pub wearing that very same Harrington. From Bottega Veneta’s exclusive with the OG’s of an obscure find, Dover Street Market, to the crocheted gold-goodness of Emanuele Bicocchi at Ssense, nothing says you know your s**t more than copping a rarer-seen fit.
With the majority of the sites offering contactless delivery, and the only travelling you need to do in order to browse the wares being to the spot of your gaff with the best Wi-Fi, online shopping for exclusives is safe in both the literal term and the slang one used by the ‘yoofs’ of today. We’ve got you started with a few of Esquire’s top picks, below. #StayHome, and #StayFlexing.
