Meet the Founder/ Owner – Emily Vu

From a Love of Vintage

to a Mission for Women Everywhere!

 Hi, I’m Emily – a mom of two, a longtime admirer of timeless design, and the founder of Emi Authlux.

 The spark for Emi Authlux began years ago, during my time as a university exchange student in Japan. I spent over a year there and was captivated by the culture’s deep appreciation for pre-loved designer bags. These weren’t just accessories – they were stories, legacies, and expressions of style with a second life. I learned so much from local authenticators and vintage sellers, and that experience planted a seed that stayed with me.

 Later, after settling down in Melbourne, Australia, and becoming a mom for the second time, I felt a pull to create something meaningful—something that allowed me to stay close to my children while doing what I love. But I also noticed how hard it was to find trustworthy, high-quality preowned designer bags at fair prices. So I thought, Why not build the very platform I wish existed?

 And just like that, Emi Authlux was born—my third “baby.”

 Our mission is simple:

 To bring authentic, beautifully curated designer handbags to women everywhere—bags that are stylish, sustainable, and affordable. Every piece we offer is handpicked and authenticated with care, because we believe luxury should be trustworthy, attainable, and have a meaningful second life.

 Whether you’re a fellow mom, a vintage lover, or just someone who wants to own something special without compromise, you’re in the right place.

 Welcome to Emi Authlux.

 With love,

Emily
