Small Brands and Big Stories define new luxury<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Over the last few years there is a change in the wind. If not in your own luxury preferences and, then surely with the tenor of a new generation of brands and services.<\/p>\n

You may have found yourself questioning whether a mass-produced \u201cluxury\u201d carry-on, simply because of its high price. <\/strong>That\u2019s especially true when you can find a competing product of equal or better quality and at a better price.<\/p>\n

Exclusivity is still just as important for the modern luxury experience today as they\u2019ve ever been. <\/strong>But rather than of prestige being defined by the logo on the side of someone\u2019s bag, scarcity and prestige are linked to unique brand experiences.<\/p>\n

The recent release of Snap\u2019s Spectacles is a perfect example. The product roll out is intended to delight and to build excitement. But it also offers up a new way of thinking about exclusivity.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Spectacles, while not quite a modern luxury item, have adopted modern luxury behaviors. In doing so, they\u2019ve stoked excitement for a product whose prestige is separated solely from price. Marked by a dramatic embrace of digital, and the arrival of a new wave of modern luxury brands and services that emphasize delightful experiences we find ourselves at a point on the luxury timeline where choice is now in the hands of the consumer, and smaller brands now have a chance to not only survive, but thrive. They\u2019ve conditioned shoppers and travelers alike to expect certain behaviors. From the luxury brands they support and at the properties around the world where they choose to stay.<\/p>\n

Opulence doesn\u2019t cut it in today\u2019s competitive marketplace, which is driven by transparency and consumer choice\/independence.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve already seen strategies that reflect this new way of luxury thinking. They intended to offer a more tailored experience for the well-heeled traveler.<\/strong><\/p>\n

These programs are ambitious and certainly forward-looking. They\u2019re also an indirect reaction to the thinking of Airbnb. And as well more contemporary high-end hostels and hotel chains.<\/p>\n

Consumers aren\u2019t limited to the confines of a particular brand, this sort of thinking reflects a new philosophy.<\/strong> Companies simply become the catalyst by which they can create their own outcomes. That\u2019s one of the reasons why consumers are flocking to products that hide their logos on the inside, thereby allowing shoppers to express their sense of style without it being defined by a particular logo.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s concept of luxury, whether for retail or for travel, isn\u2019t what it used to be<\/strong>. It\u2019s not about conspicuous consumption. It\u2019s about the personal journey, the experience, and the story behind. That presents the hospitality industry with an opportunity to deliver truly bespoke and memorable experiences for today\u2019s luxury traveler.<\/p>\n
