Who we are

SAPOLOGIE STUDIO is more than a second-hand designer store - it’s a movement. We believe luxury fashion isn’t defined by financial status, but by self-expression and an appreciation for craftsmanship. We offer a curated selection of vintage and contemporary designer pieces.

Founded by a fashion-obsessed curator with an eye for timeless pre-owned pieces, every item is authenticated, hand-selected, and given a second life with intention. After over a decade working in the fashion industry, the founder grew tired of its “you can’t sit with us” gatekeeping mentality. SAPOLOGIE STUDIO was born in response — a welcoming space for those who love fashion, value individuality, and believe style should feel expressive, not elitist.

The SAPOLOGIE STUDIO customer might be saving for their very first designer piece, or choosing to shop more sustainably, or simply someone who genuinely loves great design. There’s no single “type” — just people who value style, individuality, and giving beautiful pieces a second life.

The name Sapologie is inspired by La Sape (La Société des Ambianceurs et des Personnes Élégantes), a vibrant cultural and artistic movement rooted in Congo. Known for its emphasis on luxury fashion, elegance, and self-expression, La Sape celebrates style as a form of identity. Sapeurs are designer connoisseurs — but for them, it’s never just about expensive brands. It’s about intention, individuality, and crafting a look that feels personal.

At SAPOLOGIE STUDIO, we believe in that same philosophy: true luxury fashion isn’t about status — it’s about self-expression.
