A community of handbag lovers

Sarah Haran has always taken an innovative approach to community building. Their VIP programme brings together the brand’s most dedicated fans, who pay a subscription for exclusive access to events, product launches, and a space to connect with fellow handbag lovers.

The preloved programme extends that community by creating a trusted marketplace where members can pass on pieces, discover designs they missed, and share their collections. For VIPs - many of whom call themselves “handbag addicts” - it is a chance to enjoy the rotational wardrobe of their dreams while staying closely tied to the brand.

Why it works

Extra value for VIPs

Keeping resale exclusive adds another benefit to the membership and strengthens loyalty among Sarah Haran’s most passionate fans.

Rotational wardrobes

Members can trade in previous purchases and upgrade to something new using store credit, making their collections more sustainable and exciting.

Trust and authenticity

Continue powers item verification and pricing based on condition, so every resale feels transparent, safe, and fair.

Sarah Haran, Founder

"Thanks to Continue, we’ve successfully launched preloved, adding enormous value to our VIP customers. Now they can manage their wardrobes, sell on previous purchases, and get store credit towards something new."

Why Continue?

Preloved for store credit

Every resale brings funds back to the brand and rewards sellers with gift cards, driving repeat purchases and higher lifetime value.

Digital wardrobe technology

VIPs can organise their handbags in one place, making it simple to see their collections, decide what to sell, and plan their next purchase.

A seamless resale experience

Pre-filled listings, clear pricing, and item history make selling fast and effortless, while giving buyers the confidence they need.

Summary

Sarah Haran’s preloved programme is more than resale. It is a VIP-only community where members can connect, share, and rotate their wardrobes in a safe and sustainable way. Powered by Continue, it has delivered rapid ROI, deeper loyalty, and lasting value for the brand’s most dedicated customers.
