\u00ab WHAT IS YOUR PERCEPTION OF TOMORROW’S LUXURY<\/strong><\/strong> ?<\/strong> \u00bb<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m thinking a lot lately about my own relationship with luxury. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’m discovering that the brands that seemed luxurious to me are still luxurious, but they no longer symbolise the luxury that I foresee for the years to come. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Selling expensive things to a lot of people at the same time, yes that’s luxury, I know. But are even more expensive things to an even smaller number of people the solution? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What I foresee, and perhaps because I long for it, is a luxury of purpose, therefore a nobility of purpose, an empathy of purpose, a tenderness of purpose, a measure of purpose. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let me give you an example: the young New York brand Bode not only upcycles fabrics, but creates clothes that you don’t see on everyone, simply because they have such an extra soul, such a grace, that they can only make a few people dream. Like poetry. That is what luxury will be, something virtuous and irresistibly good. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
