Vivrelle, a first-of-its-kind luxury accessories membership club, announced the closing of a $62 million Series C funding round from Protagonist.
This investment marks a significant step forward in Vivrelle’s continued growth, empowering the brand to integrate fashion and technology more effectively while redefining the luxury experience for today’s consumers.
Vivrelle’s membership club provides access to a shared closet of coveted designer handbags, jewelry, and diamonds for a monthly membership fee.
In the past seven years, Vivrelle expanded its offerings to include four membership tiers, opened a 14,000-square-foot showroom in New York City, and launched a multi-city partnership with Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, with its next destination opening this summer in Austin, Texas. Most recently, Vivrelle debuted its first-ever retail concept over Memorial Day Weekend.
Based in Bridgehampton, New York, this summer-long pop-up invites both members and non-members to borrow and shop luxury accessories, while also completing their look from a curated selection of clothing and summer essentials—all under one roof.
With this new funding, Vivrelle will focus on expanding its showroom presence to new markets, enhancing its product assortment, and developing innovative technologies to elevate the member experience further.
The company was founded in September 2018 by newlyweds Blake and Wayne Geffen,
