A duo with a penchant for luxury made off with over $550,000 in high-end fashion and cash from a Bronx apartment in a sophisticated burglary late last month, according to police reports.

The two suspects gained entry through the front door of a Morris Heights building located at the junction of Undercliff Avenue and West 175th Street at approximately 9:30 p.m. on November 25, authorities revealed.

Once inside, they targeted an apartment, turning it upside down as they seized $200,000 in Louis Vuitton footwear, $100,000 worth of Chanel handbags, a jewelry collection valued at $150,000, and $104,000 in cash, police noted.

With no residents present, the thieves capitalized on the opportunity and fled with their loot, officials confirmed.

It remains unclear if the burglars had any prior connection to the apartment’s occupants, law enforcement added.

The NYPD released surveillance footage of both suspects over the weekend, and they were still on the loose as of Tuesday. 

One is described by cops as a male with a light complexion, last seen wearing a black hoodie, blue jeans, black sneakers and carrying a camouflage backpack. 

Police say the other is a male with a medium complexion, last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, a dark-colored vest, black jeans and black sneakers.

Anyone with information on the burglary is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
