A Global Team of Experts

We’ve poured our time, resources, and know-how into developing a uniquely accurate physical and digital authentication process. That includes in-depth, in-person vetting of potential listings by a team of 60+ experts around the globe, in France, the UK, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore, and the United States.

An Industry-Leading Process

High-end and luxury pieces are not only the heart of our business — they’re also the most counterfeited items. But we’ve learned from experience: the €360 million worth of items our team has rejected since 2020 is making us smarter, better, and faster every day.

The Vestiaire Academy

In 2017, we launched the Vestiaire Academy, our very own training school. The Academy specializes in honing skills so our experts can recognize the hallmarks of authentic materials, techniques, and brands, both online and in person. The Vestiaire Academy is our way of ensuring we have the best authenticators in the world.
