What Net-a-porter.com does

Net-a-Porter is a direct-to-consumer online luxury fashion retailer founded in 2000 by Natalie Massenet, headquartered in London, United Kingdom. The platform curates and sells women's designer clothing, shoes, bags, jewelry, accessories, and home goods from over 500 luxury brands including Chanel, Gucci, Saint Laurent, Valentino Garavani, Chloé, Bottega Veneta, and The Row, with products typically priced from $100 to $6,000+. Its core technology is a localized e-commerce platform with companion iOS and Android mobile applications, integrated with PORTER — an in-house editorial magazine covering fashion, beauty, and lifestyle that combines content with commerce. Supporting features include the NET-A-PORTER Rewards loyalty program, the NET SUSTAIN sustainability-focused collection, and a dedicated sale section offering discounts up to 70%.

The company operates a transaction-based revenue model, taking a cut on each direct sale to end consumers, with no disclosed subscription or recurring fees. Its customer base consists primarily of affluent female consumers worldwide, plus secondary segments for occasion-based gifting and luxury home shoppers, served through localized storefronts across the US, UK, Italy, and France. Distribution is digital-only via the proprietary website and mobile apps, with a connected menswear sister site (MR PORTER) creating a comprehensive gender-spanning luxury offering under common ownership.

Following its merger with Yoox and acquisition by Richemont for nearly $6 billion in 2018, Net-a-Porter was acquired by Mytheresa from Richemont in October 2024 in exchange for a 33% Richemont stake. The combined entity was renamed LuxExperience B.V. and listed on the NYSE under ticker LUXE. LuxExperience has guided to FY26 group net sales of EUR 2.5-2.7 billion and a medium-term target of EUR 4 billion by FY2029/30, with NET-A-PORTER/MR PORTER segment Adjusted EBITDA margins improving sequentially from negative to 0.9-2.0%. The group completed the divestiture of THE OUTNET assets in April 2026 and is positioning to become the fourth-largest online luxury retailer in the US.
