About Bessette

Bessette was born out of the need for a curated offering of luxury fashion at a discounted price. As lovers of fashion, Alli and Vanessa were frustrated with the current off-price outlet offering: poor shopping experience and too many unwanted pieces.

Bessette provides its customers with the same high-end experience as expected in the luxury retail space, at a lower price point. The Bessette Girl likes to invest in herself and her wardrobe. She appreciates luxury, but is considered. She prioritises quality pieces that will transcend trends and seasons.

Designer Fashion, Sourced Differently

Bessette operates on an off-price model, allowing us to offer authentic designer fashion at a more accessible price point.

We source our collections directly from brands and authorised third-party retailers, often from:

• past-season collections
• limited runs
• surplus or overstock inventory
  

This approach gives exceptional pieces a second moment - without compromising on quality, authenticity, or style.

Authenticity, Always

All items sold at Shop Bessette are 100% authentic.

Every piece is sourced from the brand itself or trusted, authorised retail partners, and carefully inspected before it reaches you.

About the Founders

Bessette is the brainchild of two dynamic women with years of experience within luxury fashion. Alli Sims Peter, a U.S. native, brings years of experience in luxury styling and a deep-rooted passion for fashion. Her love for sample sales and sustainability is evident in her minimalist approach to style, where timeless pieces form the core of her wardrobe. Rounding out the duo is Vanessa from Canada, who has honed her skills in private shopping and luxury styling over seven years. Vanessa’s belief in fashion’s transformative power is a driving force behind Bessette.
