The FWRD Designer Edit: Bags, Ready-to-Wear and Pre-Owned Pieces in One Place
A structured top-handle bag from Bottega Veneta, a Saint Laurent jacket, a Khaite belt to tie the season together. Most luxury wish lists look something like this, and most of them get scattered across a dozen boutique sites, each with its own checkout, shipping terms and returns process.
FWRD, the luxury fashion retailer owned by REVOLVE Group, puts that kind of list under one roof. The site describes itself as an online destination for premier luxury fashion, carrying designers such as Saint Laurent, Isabel Marant, Chloé, Valentino, Givenchy, Balenciaga, Balmain, Bottega Veneta, Burberry, Dries Van Noten, Loewe, Miu Miu, The Row and Khaite. The useful part is how the edit is organized: by department, with a full designer index for anyone who already knows the name they want.
Below is a walk through FWRD’s main departments, starting with the one where the selection runs deepest, followed by the ways to pay less and buy smarter.

Bags are where the FWRD edit starts
If you only open one department, make it bags. FWRD groups them by shape, with dedicated pages for styles such as top-handle bags, clutches and totes, so you can compare a structured Saint Laurent piece against a softer Loewe or Bottega Veneta design without jumping between brand stores.
FWRD Exclusives. Some bags sit under an Exclusives banner, with their own top-handle and clutch pages. These are worth checking first if you want something you will not find on every other luxury site.
The big names. Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, Chloé, Givenchy, Loewe and The Row all appear in FWRD’s bag offering. Filtering by designer inside the bags category is the quickest way to see a single house’s current silhouettes side by side.
The sale page. FWRD runs a separate women’s designer bags on sale page, so checking it before you buy at full price takes a minute and can change the math on a statement piece.
Ready-to-wear from the runway houses
The clothing department covers designer dresses, denim, jackets, coats and more, and it reads like a roll call of the season’s runway shows. Saint Laurent, Isabel Marant, Valentino, Balmain, Miu Miu and Dries Van Noten all live here, alongside contemporary labels for everyday dressing.
Shopping by category. If you are building a wardrobe around one item, such as a coat for fall or jeans that work with everything, start in the category and filter by designer. FWRD’s women’s denim page alone pulls together contemporary and luxury labels in one place.
Shopping by designer. If you are loyal to one house, the women’s designer index lists every brand on the site alphabetically. It is the fastest route when you already know whose cut fits you.
New arrivals. FWRD posts dated new-arrival edits, which makes it easy to see what has landed this week without scrolling past pieces you have already considered.

Shoes and accessories finish the look
Shoes from top fashion designers get their own department, and the accessories section goes wider than many shoppers expect. FWRD lists belts, fine jewelry, hair accessories, scarves, wallets and sunglasses, including classic eyewear shapes.
Small pieces, big labels. Accessories are often the most approachable way into a luxury house. A Khaite belt, a pair of designer sunglasses or a small leather wallet carries the same design language as the runway collection at a smaller commitment.
Sale accessories. FWRD also keeps a women’s accessories on sale page, which is a good place to look for gifts.
Menswear, beauty and home round out the edit
FWRD is not only a women’s site. It carries a men’s designer offering with its own weekly new arrivals, plus beauty and home departments. If you shop for a partner, or want a candle or a piece of home decor to sit next to a new bag, it can all go in one order.
The beauty section includes wellness brands as well as cosmetics, so it is worth a look if you like finding niche labels alongside the familiar ones.
FWRD Renew gives pre-owned designer bags a second life
FWRD Renew is the site’s pre-owned category, with its own pages for bag types such as totes. When the program launched, Entertainment Tonight reported that it was built to extend the life cycle of high-end designer handbags from brands including Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, Chloé, Givenchy, Loewe and The Row.
According to that launch coverage, customers who trade in an eligible handbag bought at full price within the past year receive a trade-up credit of 50% of the original purchase price, usable on FWRD and REVOLVE, and accepted bags are resold at 25% to 50% below their initial retail price. Program terms can change, so check the current details on FWRD before you plan around them.

Free shipping, easy returns and when to buy at FWRD
A luxury purchase deserves a little planning. These habits help you get the piece you want at the best price available to you.
Check sale and Renew first. Before paying full price, look at the sale page for your category and at FWRD Renew for bags. The same designer can show up in all three places.
Use the shipping and returns terms. FWRD’s shipping and returns page states that US orders ship free with two-day delivery, and that domestic orders come with a free prepaid return label. Purchases can be returned within 30 days in their original condition, unworn and with tags attached, for a refund or exchange. That makes it easier to order a size you are unsure of and send back what does not work.
Watch new arrivals for your favorite designers. The most popular pieces from a new season can sell through in some sizes. Checking the dated new-arrival edits means you see them early.
Buy fewer, better pieces. The FWRD edit rewards a considered approach. One bag from a house you love, worn for years, does more for a wardrobe than several trend buys. With the designer index, the exclusives and a resale program in one place, FWRD makes that kind of buying straightforward.
