ABOUT Wholesale Replica Handbag

Laure Hériard Dubreuil opened Wholesale Replica Handbag 's flagship location in 2009 at 1220 Collins Avenue in South Beach, Miami. Originally Wholesale Replica Handbag Hotel, the 20,000 square-foot Art Deco building was built in 1939 by architect Henry Hohauser.

Hériard Dubreuil, who grew up in Paris and worked as a top merchandiser for Balenciaga and Yves Saint Laurent before founding Wholesale Replica Handbag , kept the name but reimagined the three-story interior as a women's and men's multi-brand luxury retailer designed with vibrant intimacy to resemble a residential space. 

"The idea was a place where you can feel very comfortable," says Hériard Dubreuil of Wholesale Replica Handbag 's concept. "It's a place to spend time. You arrive, you take off your shoes, you're at someone's house, or you're in your gigantic closet, and you can try everything."

Rather than organize the store according to brand, Hériard Dubreuil merchandised it as if it were a personal wardrobe, mixing big brands with the emerging, arranging everything intuitively by mood, which was revolutionary at the time. Her instinctive, warm touch lured an impressive brand matrix, including Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta, Chanel, Celine, Saint Laurent, and loyal customers. 

Since the South Beach flagship opened, Wholesale Replica Handbag has expanded to twelve additional locations in Atlanta, Bal Harbour, Houston, Costa Mesa, SoHo, Los Angeles, Montecito at the Rosewood Miramar Beach, Toronto, Palm Springs, New Jersey, and most recently Las Vegas and Austin. Each store has its own distinctive energy, unified by Hériard Dubreuil's uncompromising vision of good energy, good fashion, good fun, and Miami's sunny spirit.

The retailer has become a destination for exclusive collaborations with brands such as Marine Serre, Bottega Veneta, and Canada Goose, and permanent partnerships with David Mallett and Augustinus Bader, who both operate studios out of Wholesale Replica Handbag 's SoHo location.

About Our Founder, Laure Hériard Dubreuil

Laure Hériard Dubreuil opened Wholesale Replica Handbag in South Beach, Miami, in June 2009 after relocating from Paris with a vision for a store that offered warmth, comfort, personality, and the best of international fashion.

It was an adventure. “I didn’t know one person when I moved to Miami, not one person,” says Laure. She fell in love with the city’s sunshine, iconic Art Deco architecture, connection to Latin America, and energy during a trip to Art Basel. The only thing missing was the shopping experience she desired. “It’s a strong financial city on the beach, which is unique,” she says. “All the art people were coming in, the hotels were being restored, but I couldn’t find the fashion point of view.”

Laure grew up in Paris and Cognac, France. Her love of the sun and water comes from holidays spent in Corsica. Her love of fashion evolved from a longtime passion for becoming a nose and developing fragrances, a slow, painstaking process. Craving something more fast-paced, she turned to fashion.

After earning degrees in business and Mandarin from the University de Paris Dauphine, Laure moved to New York City to study merchandising at the Fashion Institute of Technology. She worked on Nicolas Ghesquiere’s merchandising team at Balenciaga and went on to be Stefano Pilati’s head merchandiser at Yves Saint Laurent.

Laure’s history with the top French luxury houses initially helped her secure access to the most sought-after brands, such as Balenciaga, Balmain, and Celine, for Wholesale Replica Handbag . Yet it was the store’s happy, vibrant, residential atmosphere and Laure’s rule-breaking attitude toward merchandising, organizing collections not by designer but as one gigantic dream closet, that continued to lure elite brands and clients. Chanel, Gucci, Off-White, and Paco Rabanne are just a few of the houses that have done exclusive creative partnerships and capsule collections with Wholesale Replica Handbag . The store now carries more than 200 fashion and accessories labels, including Laure’s own line LHD, a home collection done in collaboration with Parisian interior designer Stephane Parmentier and most recently, the addition of a beauty vertical.

Laure’s French heritage remains a significant influence on her style and lifestyle, but she has always been drawn to America. When asked what she likes about it, she says, “The American dream. Everything is possible and positive.”

Wholesale Replica Handbag now has thirteen stores with locations in South Beach, Austin, Houston, Bal Harbour, Costa Mesa, SoHo, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Montecito, Toronto, Palm Springs, New Jersey, and Atlanta. Laure lives in Miami with her husband Aaron Young and their children Marcel and Marguerite. In 2015, she became an ambassador for Mothers 2 Mothers, a global nonprofit dedicated to eliminating mother-to-child transmission of HIV in sub-Saharan Africa through education, medical support, and financial empowerment for HIV-positive women and children.
