About Us
Today's best brands are built on purpose, integrity and sustainability. Vintage Luxe Up is doing our part by curating the world's finest collection of vintage luxury silk scarves upcycled into one-of-a-kind fashion accessories & home decor.
Luxury industry veteran, David Altman, founded Vintage Luxe Up in the spring
of 2020 from his dining room table. Inspired by a dream to bring together his passion for design, sustainability and doing well by doing good, he put his talents to work.

Known for his critical eye and once-in-a-generation taste, David built a career scouring the world's marketplaces to bring coveted finds to his customers at Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale's, Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works and now Vintage Luxe Up.
This journey began on eBay with a single Hermès scarf donated by a friend. There he found a passionate group of advocates and realized he was on to something. Forced off the eBay platform due to outdated rules about upcycled products, he was determined to continue his mission on VintageLuxeUp.com.
Exclusively ours, each creation is truly one-of-a-kind; sourced and altered from independently authenticated vintage silks from secondary markets to preserve their beauty while reducing waste and its impact on the planet.
Based in Lexington, KY and made there by local artisans, the scarves are given a new life for a new generation of sustainably conscious customers.
We look forward to building a community and movement of like-minded folks determined to lead change.
