The BrandCo team’s selection : Our favorite luxury bags under €1000
Long considered unattainable, the world of luxury fashion is now opening up new horizons thanks to the second-hand market. Buying a luxury bag for under €1000 has shifted from a rare, exceptional opportunity to a fully accessible possibility for fashion enthusiasts. With this budget, the range of choices available to you is much wider than what we presented in our article featuring our favorite luxury bags under €500.
At BrandCo Paris, we believe that investing between €500 and €1000 allows you to acquire a piece whose quality and desirability are well established. That’s why our team explores the second-hand luxury market daily to find iconic models that have lost none of their appeal, offering you a selection of emblematic pieces available without crossing the symbolic €1000 mark.
Pillars of pre-loved luxury: Louis Vuitton and Dior
To start or grow a collection, Louis Vuitton remains the most popular choice.
Turning to pre-owned items, it’s possible to get your hands on the famous trio: the Noé, born to carry champagne, the Alma, with its Art Deco lines, and the essential Speedy. These models are true staples of leather goods. The Monogram canvas withstands decades with exemplary durability, while Epi leather offers a textured, elegant alternative for those who favor subtlety.
Dior also offers remarkable opportunities, notably with the Street Chic line. These models stand out for their urban style and detailed hardware. It’s a statement piece that showcases the Maison’s craftsmanship while remaining perfectly suited to an active lifestyle.
Italian elegance in second hand: Fendi and Gucci
Italy, like France, also has the talent for turning a bag into a true cult object.
At Fendi, the legendary Baguette and Mama Forever are insider choices. The Baguette, now a cultural phenomenon, retains undeniable style and appeal. The Mama Forever, with its larger volume, brings practical elegance to any outfit.
Gucci offers two highly sought-after faces of luxury in the second-hand market. The Dionysus, recognizable by its clasp with two tiger heads in a reversed U shape, embodies bold modernity. In contrast, the Jackie bag epitomizes timeless chic. Its hobo shape and piston clasp make it one of the most elegant models and a classic in fashion history, often available second-hand in exceptionally high-quality leather
Design and modernity: Celine, Chloé, and Bottega Veneta
For lovers of architectural lines and clean designs, Celine’s Trapeze bag is a centerpiece. Its flared wings and minimalist flap have redefined contemporary chic. This luxury bag under €1000 never goes unnoticed.
Finally, Chloé and Bottega Veneta complete this selection with a focus on materials. Chloé bags captivate with their bohemian spirit and signature metallic finishes. At Bottega Veneta, the absence of a logo is offset by the famous Intrecciato weaving. Choosing these luxury bags second-hand means prioritizing pure craftsmanship and the discreet luxury that focuses on touch and material quality.

Our expert advice for a confident second-hand luxury purchase
- Identify your “style DNA” before investing: Are you more “logo” (Louis Vuitton, Fendi) or “material” (Bottega Veneta, Céline)? Your bag should become an extension of your personality.
- Once you choose a model, examine stress points: For structured models like the Trapeze or Alma, check the handles and corners. A bag that maintains its original shape indicates it has been well cared for.
- Make authenticity a priority: The more iconic a model (like the Baguette or Speedy), the more it is copied. At BrandCo Paris, our experts’ rigor is your best guarantee. Every luxury bag under €1000 in our selection is meticulously authenticated, letting you enjoy the prestige of top brands safely and with certified quality.
