Tell us about your businesses, the inspiration behind it and when you launched it?
ELViVi Bag Consultancy was founded by Jessie Grace Lloyd in May 2025, inspired by a lifelong passion for luxury and craftsmanship. Jessie’s journey began early, selling antiques with her father at UK fairs, sparking her love for collecting art, vintage fashion, and the stories behind each piece.
At ELViVi, we specialise in buying, selling, sourcing, and authenticating pre-loved Louis Vuitton pieces, offering a curated collection of iconic, high-quality bags. Whether you are a seasoned collector or new to luxury fashion, our expert valuations and personalised guidance ensure a seamless and rewarding experience. We also offer bespoke events and experiences such as Authentication Masterclasses.
Sustainability is at the heart of our mission of celebrating pre-loved luxury while promoting a more conscious approach. We also collaborate with This Old Thing London, extending our expertise to Hermès, Chanel, and other exceptional brands.
Best piece of advice you were given at the start of your business journey?
Stand out by being yourself, believing in your value, and building genuine relationships.
What has been your biggest lesson/ challenge faced so far and how did you overcome it?
I’ve often found myself wanting to do everything at once, so I’m working on overcoming this by breaking tasks into smaller, achievable goals and learning as much as I can from mentors and other experienced businesswomen.
What is your number 1 business tip for success?
If you don’t ask, you don’t get.
What are the big business goals for the next year?
Forge authentic brand partnerships and increase brand visibility by growing our audience and engagement.
How can the GGC Business membership help?

What’s the dream?
The dream is to create more than just a resale platform – to build a luxury consultancy that educates fashion lovers on sustainability and authentication, while providing a completely bespoke experience tailored to each client.
