Libby Page, Market Director at NET-A-PORTER, shares eight emerging brands the e-commerce platform is championing in 2023 and beyond
Benedetta Bruzziches
Frost yourself! We can’t wait for these super sparkly bags to arrive from Benedetta Bruzziches. Perfect for parties and special events, they’re also a great way to elevate everyday looks. Each piece is handmade in Italy from luxury materials. The brand has partnered with us on bringing back their Vitty in silver/black from the archives for the launch.
Miss Sohee
Miss Sohee is led by Korean designer Sohee Park, the Central Saint Martins graduate who has had a cult following since launching her debut collection in 2020. Loved by Bella Hadid, Gemma Chan, and Naomi Campbell, the eveningwear features voluminous trains, intricate embroideries, and glistening crystals. We love everything about her sculptural headpieces and couture-level gowns.
Dima Ayad

We’re very excited to be launching Dima Ayad onsite early next year! The Dubai-based Lebanese designer is known for her multi-functional wardrobe pieces brimming with timeless elegance.
Paris Texas
Inspired by modern women from around the world, Paris Texas is an Italian shoe label founded in 2015 known for sophisticated designs in bold materials. The collections revolve around creativity, freedom and expression, offering sky-high platforms and standout crystal embellishments alongside their renowned croc-embossed knee-high boots in a variety of colourways.
ALÉMAIS
ALÉMAIS is the brand of Australian designer Lesleigh Jermanus, and she draws on her Lebanese heritage to deliver a contemporary wardrobe of optimistic prints, patchworks and embroideries. ALÉMAIS is a brand of integrity, striving for transparent and sustainable practices within a changing industry.
Studio 189
Studio 189 is a mission-based, sustainably made label that supports African artisans, celebrates Black heritage across the diaspora, and fosters community. The SS22 collection continued the celebration with an array of prints and colour that perfectly translate to these easy-to-wear silhouettes in inclusive sizing.
Coperni
Coperni is a Parisian ready-to-wear and accessories brand designed by Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant, established in 2013. Aimed at dressing the new generation, their latest styles arrived in the form of hooded pieces featuring reinvented tailoring. Cropped jackets came with deconstructed elements, while see-through pieces were also seen on the runway, including Bella Hadid’s keyhole halter neck dress embellished with crystals. NET-A-PORTER has an exclusive Coperni capsule featuring must-have pieces for this season.
Christopher John Rogers
Christopher John Rogers is one of fashion’s most exciting emerging brands! Since launching his brand only a few seasons ago, the designer’s voluminous silhouettes, sharp tailoring and fearless use of color have already earned him the CFDA Womenswear Designer of the Year award and a legion of fans, including Zendaya, Tracee Ellis Ross and Michelle Obama. Rogers calls his aesthetic “pragmatic glamour,” a sensibility that merges the unreal and dramatic with practicality and we love everything about it. Shop all the designers on netaporter.com
