The best luxury shopping website in 2026 is Mytheresa, now the flagship of a group that also owns Net-A-Porter, Mr Porter and Yoox. The online luxury market has been reshuffled since our first list: Colette closed in 2017, Matches collapsed in 2024, and the biggest names changed hands. Here are the 9 sites we would shop at today, ranked by range, ownership stability and what each does best.
| Rank | Site | Best for | Owner / status (2026) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Mytheresa | Curated women’s, men’s and kids’ luxury | LuxExperience group |
| 2 | Net-A-Porter | Women’s designer fashion | LuxExperience group |
| 3 | Farfetch | Widest choice across boutiques | Owned by Coupang since January 2024 |
| 4 | Luisaviaroma | Avant-garde and Italian labels | Florence-based retailer |
| 5 | Moda Operandi | Runway pre-orders and trunk shows | New York based |
| 6 | Bergdorf Goodman | Department-store service | Exemplar Luxury Group (formerly Saks Global) |
| 7 | SSENSE | Avant-garde and streetwear mix | Went through creditor protection in 2025 |
| 8 | Mr Porter | Menswear | LuxExperience group |
| 9 | Yoox | Off-price designer discounts | LuxExperience group |
How we ranked them: we weighted range and curation first, then whether the business is financially stable, then how clearly it serves one need better than the rest. Prices are not compared here because they change daily; check the shop for current ones.
1. Mytheresa
Mytheresa began as the Theresa boutique in Munich, opened by Susanne and Christoph Botschen in 1987, and went online in 2006. It now sells women’s, men’s and kids’ ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and accessories, plus home and lifestyle.
Its parent company completed the purchase of Yoox Net-A-Porter from Richemont in April 2025 and renamed itself LuxExperience, with Mytheresa as the flagship. Our pick for the most curated edit and the most stable ownership.
2. Net-A-Porter
Net-A-Porter launched in 2000 from a London flat and has long set the standard for editorial-style luxury e-commerce. Since April 2025 it has been owned by LuxExperience, after Richemont sold it as part of Yoox Net-A-Porter.
It is the strongest all-round site for women’s designer fashion. The group has said it will share technology and infrastructure across its brands, which should help delivery and range over time.
3. Farfetch
Farfetch is a marketplace linking boutiques and brands around the world with shoppers. It was founded in 2007 in London and was acquired by Coupang, completing in January 2024 after financial trouble in late 2023.
It now says it ships to over 190 countries and territories, and in May 2026 launched Farfetch First, a premium service with free upgrade to next-day delivery across several European countries. It is the widest choice of the nine, because many of its items come from independent boutiques.
4. Luisaviaroma
Luisaviaroma is the online arm of a Florence retailer that traces its roots to 1929. It stocks designer fashion, home and lifestyle, and is where we would start for Italian labels and more adventurous designers.
Its site blocked our automated check, so we recommend confirming current delivery countries and returns terms on the checkout page.
5. Moda Operandi
Moda Operandi was founded in 2010 by Lauren Santo Domingo and Áslaug Magnúsdóttir around the idea of ordering runway looks months before they reach stores. Trunk shows let customers reserve pieces with a 50 percent deposit.
The site also sells in-season fashion, jewelry, home and beauty, with more than 1,000 brands. Its homepage currently shows both pre-order items and live trunk shows, with personal stylists available through Moda Private.
6. Bergdorf Goodman
Bergdorf Goodman has been a New York institution since 1899, with its women’s store and the men’s store across the street on Fifth Avenue. Its online shop is the one to use when you want department-store service and a New York edit. Looking for a gift for him? See our guide to the most expensive bags for men.
The parent company, Saks Global, filed for chapter 11 protection in January 2026 and emerged six months later under the new name Exemplar Luxury Group. That is a risk factor, which is why it sits at number 6.
7. SSENSE
SSENSE, based in Montreal, is known for mixing avant-garde designers with streetwear. In August 2025 it entered creditor protection in Canada, and the founders then took control of the restructuring with interim financing of $40 million.
We could not confirm the final outcome of that process, so treat it as a site worth using but with an open ownership question.
8. Mr Porter
Mr Porter is the menswear site in the same group as Net-A-Porter and Mytheresa. If you shop for men’s tailoring, shoes and watches, it is the most focused option here.
9. Yoox
Yoox is the group’s off-price brand, with past-season designer pieces at lower prices. Together with The Outnet, it is being run as a separate off-price division from the group’s luxury sites.
Which luxury sites from our old list are gone?
- Colette: the Paris concept store closed permanently in December 2017.
- Matchesfashion: Frasers Group put it into administration in July 2024 and it closed. The brand and its Raey label were bought by a new owner in December 2025, so a relaunch is possible, but we have not verified a live store.
- Stylebop: it filed for insolvency in August 2019 and was taken over by a Peek & Cloppenburg subsidiary. We have not verified its current status, so we left it off.
- The Corner: part of the Yoox group, which is now under the LuxExperience group. We could not verify it as a separate store today, so it is not ranked.
