vintage luxe up
Vintage Luxe Up is a rarefied collection of the world’s most iconic vintage silk scarves, reimagined into one-of-a-kind fashion accessories and home décor. Founded on the belief that today’s best brands are built on purpose and integrity, Vintage Luxe Up transforms authenticated luxury scarves from Hermès, Gucci, Chanel, Dior, and more into singular pieces designed to be worn, gifted, and treasured.
Each item is meticulously handcrafted by local artisans in Lexington, KY, preserving the artistry of vintage textiles while reducing waste and environmental impact. What began with a single Hermès scarf donated by a friend has grown into a movement—an inspired mission to merge beauty with sustainability, craftsmanship with storytelling.
More than accessories, these pieces are heirlooms in the making—each with its own history, soul, and new chapter waiting to be written. When you wear or gift Vintage Luxe Up, you become part of that story.
