Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Description of the Company and Basis of Presentation	Description of the Company and Basis of Presentation The term “Company” refers to Vera Bradley, Inc. and its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries, except where the context requires otherwise or where otherwise indicated. Vera Bradley, Inc. operates two unique lifestyle brands – Vera Bradley and Pura Vida. We believe Vera Bradley and Pura Vida are complementary businesses, both with devoted, emotionally-connected, and multi-generational female customer bases; alignment as causal, comfortable, affordable, and fun brands; positioning as “gifting” and socially-connected brands; strong, entrepreneurial cultures; a keen focus on community, charity, and social consciousness; multi-channel distribution strategies; and talented leadership teams aligned and committed to the long-term success of their brands. Vera Bradley is a leading designer of women’s handbags, luggage and travel items, fashion and home accessories, and unique gifts. Founded in 1982 by friends Barbara Bradley Baekgaard and Patricia R. Miller, the brand’s innovative designs, iconic patterns, and brilliant colors continue to inspire and connect women. In July 2019, Vera Bradley, Inc. acquired a 75% interest in Creative Genius, Inc., which also operates under the name Pura Vida Bracelets (“Pura Vida”). Pura Vida, based in La Jolla, California, is a digitally native lifestyle brand that we believe deeply resonates with its loyal consumer following. The Pura Vida brand has a differentiated and expanding offering of bracelets, jewelry, and other lifestyle accessories. The Company has three reportable segments: Vera Bradley Direct (“VB Direct”), Vera Bradley Indirect (“VB Indirect”), and Pura Vida. • The VB Direct business consists of sales of Vera Bradley products through Vera Bradley full-line and factory outlet stores in the United States; verabradley.com and verabradley.ca; the Vera Bradley online outlet site; and typically the Vera Bradley annual outlet sale in Fort Wayne, Indiana. As of October 29, 2022, the Company operated 60 full-line stores and 80 factory outlet stores. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company cancelled its calendar year 2022 and 2021 annual outlet sales. • The VB Indirect business consists of sales of Vera Bradley products to approximately 1,700 specialty retail locations, substantially all of which are located in the United States, as well as department stores, national accounts, third-party e-commerce sites, third-party inventory liquidators, and royalties recognized through licensing agreements related to the Vera Bradley brand. • The Pura Vida segment represents revenues generated through the Pura Vida websites, www.puravidabracelets.com, www.puravidabracelets.eu, and www.puravidabracelets.ca, the distribution of Pura Vida-branded products to wholesale retailers, substantially all of which are located in the United States, as well as through its five retail stores. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022, filed with the SEC. The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year due to, in part, the uncertainty of macroeconomic factors on future periods, including inflation and supply chain challenges, among other related matters. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and its majority owned subsidiary, Pura Vida. The Company has eliminated intercompany balances and transactions in consolidation. Fiscal Periods The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. References to the fiscal quarters ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 refer to the thirteen week periods ended on those dates. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements There were no new accounting pronouncements issued or which became effective during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022, which had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	Leases Discount Rate The weighted-average discount rate as of October 29, 2022, and October 30, 2021 was 4.6% and 4.7%, respectively. The discount rate is not readily determinable in the lease; therefore, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate, at the commencement date of each lease, which is the rate of interest it would have to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term with similar payments. Leases Not Yet Commenced As of October 29, 2022, the Company had a total of three Vera Bradley retail store leases which were executed, but it did not have control of the underlying assets; therefore, the lease liability and right-of-use asset are not recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. These leases contain undiscounted lease payments, which will be included in the determination of the lease liability, totaling approximately $6.7 million and have terms of up to 10 years commencing in fiscal year 2024. Amounts Recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements The following lease expense is recorded within cost of sales for the Asia sourcing office and certain equipment leases and within selling, general, and administrative expenses for all other leases, including retail store leases, in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 (in thousands): Thirteen Weeks Ended Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 29, 2022 October 30, 2021 October 29, 2022 October 30, 2021 Operating lease cost $ 6,357 $ 6,524 $ 18,721 $ 18,697 Variable lease cost 1,408 1,987 4,390 5,521 Short-term lease cost 43 121 359 363 Less: Sublease income (1) (105) — (129) — Total net lease cost $ 7,703 $ 8,632 $ 23,341 $ 24,581 (1) Related to the sublease of a former Company location.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares represent outstanding restricted stock units. On July 16, 2019, as contemplated by the Interest Purchase Agreement, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and the owners of the remaining twenty-five percent (25%) ownership interest in Pura Vida (the “Sellers”) which was not acquired by the Company (the “Remaining Pura Vida Interest”) entered into a Put/Call Agreement (the “Put/Call Agreement”). Pursuant to the Put/Call Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Sellers have the right to sell all of the Remaining Pura Vida Interest to the Company, and the Company has the right to purchase all of the Remaining Pura Vida Interests from Sellers, in each case generally at any time following the fifth anniversary of the closing date of the transaction until the tenth anniversary thereof. The purchase price for any Remaining Pura Vida Interest put to, or called by, the Company will be determined based on the arithmetic average of a multiple of adjusted EBITDA of Pura Vida and a multiple of adjusted EBITDA of the Company, as defined in the Put/Call Agreement, over the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which an exercise notice is delivered by a relevant party. As a result of this redemption feature, the Company recorded the noncontrolling interest as redeemable and classified it in temporary equity within its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets initially at its acquisition-date fair value. The noncontrolling interest is adjusted each reporting period for income (or loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest. A measurement period adjustment, if any, is then made to adjust the noncontrolling interest to the higher of the redemption value or carrying value each reporting period. These adjustments are recognized through retained earnings and are not reflected in net income or net income attributable to Vera Bradley, Inc. When calculating earnings per share attributable to Vera Bradley, Inc., the Company adjusts the net income attributable to Vera Bradley, Inc. for the measurement period adjustment to the extent the redemption value exceeds the fair value of the noncontrolling interest on a cumulative basis. The components of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows (in thousands, except per share data): Thirteen Weeks Ended Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 29, October 30, October 29, October 30, Numerator: Net income (loss) $ 4,829 $ 6,226 $ (38,782) $ 14,565 Less: Net (loss) income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest (338) 448 (7,208) 1,882 Net income (loss) attributable to Vera Bradley, Inc. $ 5,167 $ 5,778 $ (31,574) $ 12,683 Denominator: Weighted-average number of common shares (basic) 31,061 33,964 31,721 33,852 Dilutive effect of stock-based awards 168 508 — 640 Weighted-average number of common shares (diluted) 31,229 34,472 31,721 34,492 Net income (loss) per share available to Vera Bradley, Inc. common shareholders: Basic $ 0.17 $ 0.17 $ (1.00) $ 0.37 Diluted $ 0.17 $ 0.17 $ (1.00) $ 0.37 For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022, all potential common shares were excluded from the diluted share calculation because they were anti-dilutive due to the net loss in the period.

Fair Value of Financial Instrum

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date: • Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; • Level 2 – Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions. The classification of fair value measurements within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement. The carrying amounts reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, and accounts payable as of October 29, 2022 and January 29, 2022, approximated their fair values. The following table details the fair value measurements of the Company's investments as of October 29, 2022 and January 29, 2022 (in thousands): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 October 29, 2022 January 29, 2022 October 29, 2022 January 29, 2022 October 29, 2022 January 29, 2022 Cash equivalents (1) $ 358 $ 2,856 $ — $ — $ — $ — (1) Cash equivalents represent a money market fund that has a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. Due to the short maturity, the Company believes the carrying value approximates fair value. The Company assesses potential impairments to its long-lived assets, which includes property, plant, and equipment and lease right-of-use assets, on a quarterly basis or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Store-level assets and right-of-use assets are grouped at the individual store-level for the purpose of the impairment assessment. Recoverability of an asset group is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to its estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is rec ognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset group. The fair value of the store assets is determined using the discounted future cash flow method of anticipated cash flows through the store’s lease-end date using fair value measurement inputs classified as Level 3. The fair value of right-of-use assets is estimated using market comparative information for similar properties. Level 3 inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. The Company recorded $1.4 million for store property, plant, and equipment impairment charges and a corporate lease right-of-use asset impairment charge for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022. There were no long-lived asset impairment charges for the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2022 and the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2021. On a nonrecurring basis, assets recognized or disclosed at fair value on the consolidated financial statements include items such as property, plant, and equipment, including leasehold improvements, and operating lease assets, as well as assets related to the Pura Vida acquisition including goodwill and intangible assets. These assets are measured at fair value if determined to be impaired. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022, the Company recorded a $29.3 million impairment charge related to goodwill and the indefinite-lived Pura Vida brand asset in conjunction with its second quarter annual quantitative test. There were no goodwill or indefinite-lived assets impairment charges recorded during the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2022. Refer to Note 13 herein for additional information. The discounted cash flow models used to estimate the applicable fair values involve numerous estimates and assumptions that are highly subjective. Changes to these estimates and assumptions could materially impact the fair

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	Debt On September 7, 2018, Vera Bradley Designs, Inc. (“VBD”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an asset-based revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among VBD, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for certain credit facilities to VBD in an aggregate principal amount not to initially exceed the lesser of $75.0 million or the amount of borrowing availability determined in accordance with a borrowing base of certain assets. Any proceeds of the credit facilities will be used to finance general corporate purposes of VBD and its subsidiaries, including but not limited to Vera Bradley International, LLC and Vera Bradley Sales, LLC (collectively, the “Named Subsidiaries”). The Credit Agreement also contains an option for VBD to arrange with lenders to increase the aggregate principal amount by up to $25.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a per annum rate equal to either (i) for CBFR borrowings (including swingline loans), the CB Floating Rate, where the CB Floating Rate is the prime rate which shall never be less than the adjusted one month LIBOR rate on such day, plus the Applicable Rate, where the Applicable Rate is a percentage spread ranging from -1.00% to -1.50% or (ii) for each eurodollar borrowing, the Adjusted LIBO Rate, where the Adjusted LIBO Rate is the LIBO rate for such interest period multiplied by the statutory reserve rate, for the interest period in effect for such borrowing, plus the Applicable Rate, where the Applicable Rate is a percentage ranging from 1.00% to 1.30%. The applicable CB Floating Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the administrative agent. The Credit Agreement also requires VBD to pay a commitment fee for the unused portion of the revolving facility of up to 0.20% per annum. VBD’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and the Named Subsidiaries. The obligations of VBD under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the respective assets of VBD, the Company, and the Named Subsidiaries and are further secured by the equity interests in VBD and the Named Subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on the Company's ability to incur debt or liens; engage in mergers or consolidations; make certain investments, acquisitions, loans, and advances; sell assets; enter into certain swap agreements; pay dividends or make distributions or make other restricted payments; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and amend, modify, or waive any of its rights related to subordinated indebtedness and certain charter and other organizational, governing, and material agreements. The Company may avoid certain of such restrictions by meeting payment conditions defined in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also requires the Loan Parties to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 during periods when borrowing availability is less than the greater of (A) $7.5 million, and (B) 10% of the lesser of (i) the aggregate revolving commitment, and (ii) the borrowing base. The fixed charge coverage ratio, availability, aggregate revolving commitment, and the borrowing base are further defined in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, among other things: (i) the failure to pay any principal, interest, or other fees under the Credit Agreement; (ii) the making of any materially incorrect representation or warranty; (iii) the failure to observe or perform any covenant, condition, or agreement in the Credit Agreement or related agreements; (iv) a cross default with respect to other material indebtedness; (v) bankruptcy and insolvency events; (vi) unsatisfied material final judgments; (vii) Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) events that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect; and (viii) a change in control (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Any commitments made under the Credit Agreement mature on September 7, 2023. As of October 29, 2022 and January 29, 2022, the Company had no borrowings outstanding and availability of $75.0 million under the Credit Agreement.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The provision for income taxes for interim periods is based on an estimate of the annual effective tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items. Management judgment is required in projecting ordinary income to estimate the Company’s annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2022, was 18.4%, compared to 21.6% for the thirteen weeks ended October 30, 2021. The yea r-over-year effective tax rate decrease was primarily due to the relative impact of permanent and discrete items in the current-year period compared to the prior-year period. The effective tax rate for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022, was 14.2%, compared to 20.9% for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2021. The year-over-year effective tax rate decrease was primarily due to the relative impact of permanent and discrete items in the current-year period compared to the prior-year period, primarily as a result of non-deductible executive compensation and stock-based compensation.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense, for its awards of restricted stock units, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date of the respective award. The Company reserved 3,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance or transfer under the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan, which allows for grants of restricted stock units, as well as other equity awards. The Company maintains the 2010 Equity and Incentive Plan for awards granted prior to the effectiveness of the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan. Awards of Restricted Stock Units The Company did not grant restricted stock units during the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2022. During the thirteen weeks ended October 30, 2021, the Company granted 11,424 time-based and performance-based restricted stock units with an aggregate fair value of $0.1 million to cer tain employees under the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan. On November 1, 2022, subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Company granted 579,270 time-based and performance-based restricted stock units with an aggregate fair value of $1.9 million to Jacqueline Ardrey, Chief Executive Officer of Vera Bradley, Inc. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022, the Company granted 841,369 time-based and performance-based restricted stock units with an aggregate fair value of $6.3 million to certain employees and non-employee directors under the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan compared to 652,339 time-based and performance-based restricted stock units with an aggregate fair value of $6.7 million in the same period of the prior year. The majority of the time-based restricted stock units vest and settle in shares of the Company’s common stock, on a one-for-one basis, in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Restricted stock units issued to non-employee directors vest after a one-year period from the grant date. The Company recognizes the expense relating to these units, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Performance-based restricted stock units vest upon the completion of a three-year period of time (cliff vesting), subject to the employee’s continuing employment throughout and the Company’s achievement of annual earnings per share targets, or other Company performance targets, during the three-year performance period. The Company recognizes the expense relating to these units, net of estimated forfeitures, based on the probable outcome of achievement of the financial targets, on a straight-line basis over three years. The following table sets forth a summary of restricted stock unit activity for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022 (units in thousands): Time-based Performance-based Number of Weighted- Number of Weighted- Nonvested units outstanding at January 29, 2022 855 $ 7.43 708 $ 7.95 Granted 472 7.47 369 7.47 Vested (442) 7.73 (174) 13.10 Forfeited (104) 7.16 (119) 6.62 Nonvested units outstanding at October 29, 2022 781 $ 7.32 784 $ 6.77 As of October 29, 2022, there was $4.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested restricted stock units.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies arising in the normal course of business, including those relating to product liability, legal claims, employee benefits, environmental issues, and other matters. Management believes that at this time it is not probable that any of these claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcomes of legal proceedings and claims brought against the Company are subject to uncertainty, and future developments could cause these actions or claims, individually or in aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of a particular reporting period. In August of 2019, Vesi Incorporated (“Vesi”) filed suit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio related to the Company’s licensing business and alleging breach of fiduciary duty, unfair competition, defamation, and tortious interference with prospective business relationships. The complaint seeks damages in an amount not less than $10.0 million for punitive damages, attorney fees, prejudgment interest, and any other additional relief. The Company has denied any liability and intends to vigorously defend itself in the case. In November 2019, the Company filed a counterclaim against the principals of Vesi as personal guarantors for monies owed to the Company by Vesi. The Company has filed a motion for summary judgement asking the Court to dismiss all claims with prejudice and grant judgement on its counterclaim. The motion is fully briefed and the Company is awaiting a decision from the Court. At this time, we are not able to estimate a possible loss or range of loss that may result from this matter or to determine whether such loss, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations due to the fact that the Company is vigorously defending itself and management believes that the Company has a number of meritorious legal defenses.

Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes, limi ted to the Company's 75% majority ownership interest. Changes to goodwill for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022 are as follows (in thousands): Balance at January 29, 2022 $ 44,254 Goodwill impairment (1) (19,421) Balance at October 29, 2022 $ 24,833 (1) The goodwill impairment charge was recorded in conjunction with the Company's second quarter annual impairment test during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022. The goodwill impairment charge was recorded within the Pura Vida segment. There were no changes to goodwill for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 30, 2021. The Company performs its annual impairment test over goodwill and the indefinite-lived Pura Vida brand during the second quarter of each fiscal year. The Company has experienced significantly lower sales from its Pura Vida e-commerce channel due to a decline in social and digital media effectiveness. These lower sales volumes had a negative impact on the fair value determination of the aforementioned assets. The fair value of the Pura Vida reporting unit was determined using a combination of an income-based approach (discounted cash flows) and a market-based approach (guideline transaction method). The discounted cash flow method involved subjective estimates and assumptions such as projected revenue growth, operating profit, and the discount rate. The guideline transaction method involved transaction multiples derived from the acquisition of controlling interests in stocks of companies that are engaged in the same or similar lines of business as the reporting unit. The fair value of the Pura Vida brand was estimated using a relief-from-royalty method. The estimates and assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of the Pura Vida brand included the projected revenue growth, long-term growth rate, the royalty rate, and discount rate. During the assessment for the fiscal 2023 test, it was determined that the fair values of the Pura Vida reporting unit and the Pura Vida brand were less than their carrying values. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $9.9 million and $19.4 million for the Pura Vida brand and goodwill, respectively, during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022 within the Pura Vida segment. Due to the operating loss incurred by the Pura Vida segment during the third quarter, the Company determined there was a triggering event and performed additional analysis on the valuation of the Pura Vida reporting unit and the Pura Vida brand as of October 29, 2022. As of October 29, 2022, the Company determined that the fair values of the Pura Vida reporting unit and the Pura Vida brand exceeded their carrying values by a nominal amount and concluded that no additional impairment existed for the goodwill or brand assets. There were no impairment charges recorded for the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2022. While we consider our assumptions in the determination of the fair value of these assets to be reasonable, they are complex and highly subjective. Adverse changes in key assumptions in future periods may result in further declines in the fair value estimates of goodwill and the Pura Vida brand below their carrying value resulting in impairment charges, which could be material. Our key assumptions (as described above in the valuation methodologies used in the determination of fair value) may be impacted by macroeconomic conditions, including inflationary pressures and the impact on consumer discretionary spending, supply chain challenges, as well as a sustained decline in stock price and potential changes in business strategy. Refer to Note 5 herein for additional information regarding the fair value measurement.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting The Company has three operating segments, which are also its reportable segments: Vera Bradley Direct (“VB Direct”), Vera Bradley Indirect (“VB Indirect”), and Pura Vida. These operating segments are components of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which operating results are evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing the performance of the segments. The VB Direct segment includes Vera Bradley full-line and factory outlet stores; the Vera Bradley websites, verabradley.com and verabradley.ca; the Vera Bradley online outlet site; and typically the Vera Bradley annual outlet sale. Revenues generated from this segment are driven through the sale of Vera Bradley-branded products from Vera Bradley to end consumers. The VB Indirect segment represents revenues generated through the distribution of Vera Bradley-branded products to specialty retailers representing approximately 1,700 locations, substantially all of which are located in the United States; key accounts, which include department stores, national accounts, third-party e-commerce sites, and third-party inventory liquidators; and royalties recognized through licensing agreements related to the Vera Bradley brand. The Pura Vida segment represents revenues generated through the Pura Vida websites, www.puravidabracelets.com, www.puravidabracelets.eu, and www.puravidabracelets.ca, the Pura Vida retail stores, and through the distribution of Pura Vida-branded products to wholesale retailers, substantially all of which are located in the United States. Corporate costs represent the Company’s administrative expenses, which include, but are not limited to: human resources, legal, finance, information technology, design, product development, merchandising, corporate-level marketing and advertising, and various other corporate-level-activity-related expenses not directly attributable to a reportable segment. All intercompany-related activities are eliminated in consolidation and are excluded from the segment reporting. Company management evaluates segment operating results based on several indicators. The primary or key performance indicators for each segment are net revenues and operating income. Net revenues and operating income information for the Company’s reportable segments during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively, consisted of the following (in thousands): Thirteen Weeks Ended Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 29, October 30, October 29, October 30, Segment net revenues: VB Direct $ 80,061 $ 86,646 $ 228,710 $ 250,516 VB Indirect 22,314 20,913 56,616 53,009 Pura Vida 21,665 27,176 67,544 87,352 Total $ 124,040 $ 134,735 $ 352,870 $ 390,877 Segment operating income (loss): VB Direct $ 17,060 $ 17,825 $ 32,607 $ 51,853 VB Indirect 9,012 7,341 18,409 17,403 Pura Vida (1,353) 1,794 (28,831) 7,528 Total $ 24,719 $ 26,960 $ 22,185 $ 76,784 Reconciliation: Segment operating income $ 24,719 $ 26,960 $ 22,185 $ 76,784 Less: Unallocated corporate expenses (18,761) (19,008) (67,281) (58,143) Operating income (loss) $ 5,958 $ 7,952 $ (45,096) $ 18,641
