Some designer buys are just for show, others are silent wealth-builders. If you’re going to drop serious cash, make it count. High End’s resale data proves that certain pieces aren’t just wardrobe staples—they’re financial assets.
Handbags That Outperform Stocks
- Hermès Birkin – Up 500% in 35 years
The pinnacle of exclusivity. A Birkin isn’t just a bag—it’s a walking fortune. If you’re lucky enough to own one, hold onto it (or resell for triple retail). - Chanel Classic Flap – 112% increase since 2016
This isn’t a handbag, it’s a calculated investment. The price has skyrocketed from $6,500 AUD to $13,800 AUD—and Chanel’s price hikes aren’t slowing down. - Dior Lady Bag – Up 60% in 5 years
Regal, structured, and always in demand. The Lady Dior has been a power move since Princess Diana carried it—and the resale market agrees. - Louis Vuitton Speedy – Up 50% in a decade
This bag is proof that timeless design never loses value. The Speedy remains one of LV’s best resale performers. - Balenciaga Motorcycle Bag – 140% value increase in 10 years
Y2K resurgence is fueling a major comeback. Once an It-girl essential, this cult classic is now one of the hottest resale flips.
Wardrobe Investments That Keep Climbing
- Burberry Trench – Up 130% in 10 years
The trench coat that transcends trends. Preloved Burberry trenches are now flipping for double their past retail prices. - Chanel Tweed Jackets – Up 200% in 15 years
Old-money energy, modern-day value. Vintage Chanel tweed? Practically couture gold. - Gucci Bamboo Bag – Up 120% in 10 years
A masterclass in craftsmanship, this bag has become one of Gucci’s most valuable archival pieces.
