Authenticity & Sourcing
Considered sourcing. Clear information. Confidence in your purchase.
rochelleneretti.com, part of the AurellioRicci Network brings together designer fashion sourced through professional distribution channels, with attention to supplier reliability, product provenance and quality.
Our sourcing model provides access to previous collections, surplus inventory and opportunities beyond traditional boutique retail, allowing us to offer selected pieces at more accessible prices.
How We Source
The AurellioRicci Network sources through established fashion-industry channels, including:
-
European and international fashion distributors
-
Outlet and off-price retailers
-
Professional wholesale and secondary distribution partners
-
Previous-season, end-of-season and surplus inventory
Our selection evolves with availability across collections, sizes and sourcing partners.
Why Our Prices Can Be Lower
The AurellioRicci Network follows a different purchasing model from a traditional full-price boutique.
Seasonal transitions, surplus inventory and discontinued collections can make designer pieces available below their original retail prices. These purchasing opportunities allow us to pass savings on to our customers.
Lower pricing reflects how merchandise is sourced and purchased, without changing the original piece’s materials or craftsmanship.
Our Approach to Authenticity
Supplier selection is an important part of our sourcing process. Depending on the supplier and merchandise, assessments may include available business records, sourcing history and product documentation.
Product checks may cover:
-
Product details — Model references, product codes and other identifying information, where available.
-
Labels and markings — Brand labels, internal tags, engravings and stamps.
-
Materials and workmanship — Materials, stitching, hardware and finishing.
-
Packaging and accessories — Boxes, dust bags, cards and other accessories supplied with the item.
The scope of these checks varies by brand, product category, age and available documentation.
Packaging & Accessories
Items sourced through outlet, surplus and secondary distribution channels may arrive with original packaging, partial packaging or no branded retail packaging.
Please review the product description for available details. If particular packaging or accessories are important to your purchase, contact Customer Care before ordering.
Packaging alone does not establish an item’s authenticity.
International Sourcing & Delivery
The AurellioRicci Network operates across international sourcing and fulfilment channels. Orders may be dispatched from different locations according to where inventory is held.
An item’s country of manufacture and its dispatch location are separate details. A shipping label indicates where a parcel was sent from; it does not necessarily indicate where the item was made.
Independent Authentication
Customers seeking additional reassurance may choose to have eligible items assessed by an independent professional authentication service.
Before arranging an assessment, contact Customer Care to find out what product information and supporting documentation are available for your item.
