Elevating the pre-loved luxury handbag experience: PeppaRose introduces the Scarfette
Adding a PeppaRose touch: Jacqueline Lampert, Founder and Creative Director, introduces the Scarfette
With the global market for pre-owned luxury handbags continuing to rise, PeppaRose has introduced the Scarfette, “a timeless, travel-inspired silk accessory designed to meet this trend with elegance and originality”.
Inspired by the slim silk scarves popularized by French luxury fashion houses, the PeppaRose Scarfette offers a fresh, modern interpretation designed to add versatility, color, and personality to luxury handbags.
Where Timeless Style Meets Destination-Inspired Design
Made in Italy from 100% silk and printed using sustainable processes, each Scarfette features reversible hand-drawn artwork, offering two distinct looks in one piece. Every design is hand-drawn in PeppaRose’s Colorado studio and inspired by a destination: from the lemon groves of Capri and the coral reefs of the Galápagos to the regal leopards of southern Africa.
A Natural Companion to Pre-Loved Luxury Bags
According to the brand, the Scarfette is a strategic and stylish complement to the booming resale market. As platforms like The RealReal, Fashionphile, and cruise ship retailers report record sales of pre-loved luxury handbags - from brands such as Hermès, Louis Vuitton and Chanel - customers are seeking elegant ways to personalize, protect, and add a fresh layer of style to their investment pieces.
The PeppaRose Scarfettes are pre-packaged in vibrant, custom-designed boxes that showcase the artwork of each piece
Industry reports show that the second-hand luxury goods market is set to nearly double from US$37.2 billion in 2024 to US$77.8 billion by 2033, driven by a demand for sustainability and individuality in fashion.
Scarfettes ae said to speak directly to this consumer need, blending practicality with personal style:
- Wrap around handles to revive or protect worn areas.
- Tie into a bow for a chic flourish of color and shape.
- Add personality to classic handbags.
Compact, Pre-Packaged, and Highly Giftable
PeppaRose Scarfettes are crafted for high-impact, space-efficient retail. Pre-packaged in vibrant, custom-designed boxes that showcase the artwork of each piece – and tied in a bow with a ribbon – they are both giftable and display-ready. Scarfettes deliver strong performance per square foot, especially in duty-free and cruise retail where space is premium.
Jacqueline Lampert, Founder and Creative Director of PeppaRose, said, “Scarfettes tick all the boxes for retailers. “Lightweight, travel-friendly and one-size, they offer retailers a high-value sales item with excellent revenue per square foot. For travelers, the ready-to-gift packaging drives impulse sales, with the destination-inspired designs adding emotional and cultural value – perfect for sense of place.”
According to Lampert, a compact shelf can generate thousands in just a few days. “It’s high-margin, low-footprint retail, with built-in story appeal.” For onboard boutiques, airport shops, and inflight retail, PeppaRose Scarfettes offer a compact, high-margin add-on that feels thoughtful, meaningful, and effortlessly chic, especially for travelers investing in luxury handbags.
“Our customers are already buying pre-loved luxury handbags – they’re motivated by style with a story,” Lampert added. “The Scarfette adds a fresh, personalized layer to their individual look.”
