What is the meaning of luxury? Franca Sozzani, Vogue Italia, 2011
What is luxury? Quality and not price? Yes, maybe, but it's not enough. Luxury involves a much wider concept. If you misunderstand it with richness referring to expensive items only, then you have an old idea of luxury. Plus, luxury is not necessarily elegance.
Luxury is not easy to define. The high-quality and creative ready-to-wear is identified as a luxury symbol. And it is, of course, from a business and brand placement point of view, addressed to a high consumer range.
I think this term has been changing its exclusive "richness symbol" meaning in time. As a matter of fact today we can meet people who wear any kind of luxury symbol without "looking" luxury. They only look rich. Because today luxury involves exclusiveness, nearly uniqueness, and not because it is addressed to few people, because it's special instead.
Luxury is research, the chance to experience new routes, to find new and not predictable or already seen solutions. Experimentations are luxury. And it's a fortune finding them and being able to have them. There are for example dresses which really give you the feeling of luxury for the way they have been made, for the quality of manufacturing, whilst some other expensive and intricate work are just opulent. Same for jewelry, shoes, accessories.
Craftsmanship is luxury. A product is luxe when it is handmade, tailored for few. Luxury meaning exclusiveness. Are status symbols luxury? Yes, sometimes. Not necessarily.

What is Luxury? V&A 2015
“What is Luxury? interrogated how luxury is made and understood. Luxury has a long history of controversy. More recently, the increase in prominence and growth of luxury brands against the backdrop of social inequality has raised new questions about what the term means to people today. Changes in culture and communication have also stimulated interest in less tangible forms of luxury, such as the desire for space and time.”
Visiting this exhibition in the summer on 2015 I was extremely intrigued by the different notions of luxury throughout time. Each person, each era perceived and continues to perceive luxury differently. For some people, it is a pair of Rupert Sanderson’s 24-karat gold-leafed shoes. For others, the time to take a bubble bath. For a child it might be ice cream seven times a week. For the mother, a week at a Canyon Ranch resort and spa.
The What is Luxury? exhibition framed work by designers, makers and artists using a selection of terms in order to engage with and expand upon current debate. It addressed the production of exceptional objects, which demonstrate an extraordinary investment in time and handmaking. It explored how attitudes to luxury are shaped by cultural concerns and personal dreams. It challenged preconceived notions of value and provides an opportunity for thinking about the future of luxury in the 21st century.
Focusing on the creation, the time for, the future of and the opinion on luxury the exhibition was beautiful curated and set the mind rolling through time in order to help in the understand of the luxury process without defining luxury itself. The question of luxury is ultimately a personal one. Everyone decides for themselves what their luxury could be. Enjoying or affording luxury is not only a question of budget but of individual circumstances and preferences.Freedom to dream and the ability to take decisions are fundamental to enjoying luxury.
