Pricing is not publicly disclosed but is displayed in EUR, USD, GBP, and PLN across markets, with VAT included, and customers can access installment payments through Klarna, Scalapay, Hey Light, and Klarna SOFORT. The customer base is segmented into fashion-conscious women, professional women, and luxury consumers seeking premium Italian fashion with personalized service options.
