A Guide to Finding Louis Vuitton, Hermès & Chanel

 

Edinburgh may be famous for its historic castles, cobbled streets, and world-class festivals, but let’s talk about something equally exciting—luxury shopping. While Glasgow often steals the spotlight for high-end retail in Scotland, Edinburgh is quietly becoming a haven for designer lovers who know where to look.

If you’re on the hunt for Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Chanel, and other luxury brands in Edinburgh, you’ll need a little insider knowledge—because let’s be honest, Scotland’s luxury scene is exclusive. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or looking for your first designer splurge, here’s your guide to shopping luxury fashion in Scotland’s capital.

Does Edinburgh Have Louis Vuitton, Hermès, or Chanel?

Here’s the thing: unlike London, where you can stroll down Bond Street and hop between boutiques, Edinburgh’s luxury scene is more discreet. There isn’t a standalone Hermès or Chanel store in the city, and while Louis Vuitton has a presence, it’s not the expansive flagship experience you’d find in Paris or New York. But don’t worry—there are still plenty of ways to get your hands on the world’s most coveted brands.

Louis Vuitton in Edinburgh

Yes, Edinburgh has a Louis Vuitton store! You’ll find it inside Harvey Nichols on St Andrew Square, in the heart of the city. The boutique stocks handbags, leather goods, accessories, and fragrances, making it the go-to for anyone wanting to shop the iconic monogram without leaving Scotland.

Insider Tip: Stock levels can be limited, so if you’re after a specific piece, call ahead or check availability online before making the trip.

Hermès in Edinburgh

Bad news? Edinburgh doesn’t have an Hermès boutique. Good news? That doesn’t mean you can’t shop Hermès in Scotland! If you’re looking for a Birkin, Kelly, or classic silk scarf, the best way to source one is through trusted luxury resellers—like us at The Luxury Savvy.

At The Luxury Savvy, we curate an authentic, preloved collection of Hermès bags and accessories, so you don’t have to deal with waiting lists or spend years building up a “profile” with a sales associate. Want a hard-to-find colour or a bag that’s no longer in production? We might just have it.

Chanel in Edinburgh

Much like Hermès, Chanel doesn’t have a boutique in Edinburgh, but you can still find pieces if you know where to look. Harvey Nichols stocks Chanel beauty and fragrance, so if you’re after the perfect shade of Rouge Coco or a bottle of No.5, you’re in luck.

However, if it’s a Chanel Classic Flap or a Boy Bag you’re after, your best bet is shopping pre-owned. The Luxury Savvy offers an expertly curated selection of authentic Chanel handbags, accessories, and jewellery—so you can skip the price hikes and shop sought-after pieces without waiting for a boutique restock.

Luxury Shopping in Scotland: Worth the Trip?

For true luxury lovers, shopping in Scotland can be a bit of a treasure hunt. While Edinburgh offers a taste of high-end retail, for the full luxury experience, many shoppers still head to London or Paris. But if you prefer curated, pre-owned, and exclusive finds, the real gems are in the luxury resale market—where bags have a history, and availability isn’t dictated by boutique politics.

And that’s where we come in.

At The Luxury Savvy, we’re passionate about bringing authentic, preloved luxury to Scotland. Whether you’re searching for a Louis Vuitton Keepall, a Chanel 19, or a rare Hermès Mini Kelly, we source, authenticate, and deliver the best of luxury fashion, without the waitlists! 

So, if you’re shopping for Louis Vuitton, Hermès, or Chanel in Edinburgh, don’t stop at the boutiques—shop smart, shop preloved, and discover something truly special.
