The Journey Behind Our Brand
Hello, my name is Vilma
After more than a decade working in authentication and marketing at a resale consignment store, I reached a turning point. My career had been built on recognizing true luxury, from Hermès and Chanel to Louis Vuitton and Gucci, but I knew it was time to create something of my own. I wanted a space where passion and purpose met, where my eye for quality and love for fashion storytelling could truly shine.
That passion began in my hometown in Albania, where I spent afternoons after school treasure hunting through local thrift shops. The thrill of finding something rare and beautiful never faded. When I bought my first designer bag at 21, a pre-loved Louis Vuitton Neverfull, it sparked a journey of collecting, reselling, and connecting with others who shared the same excitement. That early love for vintage luxury eventually grew into something much bigger, the beginning of Vilma’s Vault.
"From the start, Vilma provided a fair and competitive quote, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. The transparency and clear communication reassured me that my bag was in the best hands."

Behind Vilma’s Vault
Our Story and Philosophy
Built by two sisters - my experience in luxury authentication and designer resale and Katerina’s digital marketing expertise. Vilma’s Vault was created on trust, curation and a love for iconic vintage pieces, supported by a team of five bold women.
We embrace character over perfection. Every bag carries its own story and that’s what makes it special. In under two years, we’ve sourced over 3,000 authenticated pieces and hosted two pop-ups, selling more than 200 luxury items in a single weekend, including Hermès Birkins.
Every piece is intentionally chosen, inspired by our community and curated with love. Each bag drop is thoughtful and filled with stories ready to continue their journey.
