09.08.16-Santorini-Kristen McMenamy Back on July 09 What of Kristen McMenamy’s appearance on the cover of the July issue of Italian Vogue shot by Steven Meisel? A rarity in this day and age, the entire issue is dedicated to her.

Sasha Pivovarova sitting there like a forlorn little girl made me think of McMenamy and the alluring quality that mature women posses. Where McMenamy’s eyes pierce through the photograph and grab your attention, Pivovarova’s just seem stunted; there is always this sense of detachment. It’s no fault of hers, but one wonders if she will ever be around long enough to see herself grow into her role as a model.

I don’t know what prompted McMenamy to come out of semi-retirement. This coming from a model who for a while completely shunned the fashion world and declined repeated offers by Meisel to work on new projects.

I guess it is possible to get excited about younger models today, I mean genetics still hasn’t stopped working. I just wonder why the powers that be aren’t capable of seeing beyond the pale. I remember Oluchi Onweagba making a comment once about going to a casting in Milan and noticing someone rolling their eyes up in exasperation at the sight of her. How can people be so detached at times?

09.08.07-Santorini-Functional Sculpture Recent years, supported by tycoons over the world, a new art genre is widely known. The furniture made by its designers is called functional sculpture. More and more tycoons would like to spend £10,000 even more for a piece of them.

1 Long ago, luxury goods just offered people who lived in majestic houses with a full complement of servants. They prefered Louis Vuitton trunks and Christian Dior trousseaus, but far away from fashion. They wanted “classic” style, just like their politics- conservative- determined largely by consideration of safeguarding their wealth and perpetuating the social conventions that ratified their sense of superiority.

It is a big difference from now. Luxury not only belongs to celebrities, but also to our normal people. Maybe you cannot afford a house in Paris’s 16th arrondissement or an apartment on New York’s Park Avenue; you also can buy a Louis Vuitton handbag or a bottle of Dior perfume with your enough disposable income.

Now, so many officers tote a luxury brand through their hard working, never mind that they were born into a family whose ancestral home is a tract house in the suburbs. That group of people has a sense of entitlement that transcends social class, a conviction that the finer things are their birthright. They believe shopping is a form of self-expression and consumerism. They revise the notion of luxury and force more brands join in the intensive competition.

Luxury is developed. It is not only in Europe and American, but also enters into Asia. It does not only grasp classic items, but also follow fashion. From every year fashion week, you will know what polished trend is this season. From Hollywood style, you will personify the change from the discreet. More and more luxury brands know elitist approach prevails for most of this century.

What about next century? What will happen to luxury at that time?

1 What is better than a Louis Vuitton monogram bag? A Louis Vuitton bag with your own monogram on it. That is the thinking behind the house’s Mon Monogram service. The company has been allowing customers to personalize luggage and smaller items like wallets for a while, but you can now put your initials on its signature Speedy 30 or Keepall Bandoulière 55 bags. And because the canvas is given a special coating after your logo has been painted on, there is no danger of ever losing your good name.

On Louis Vuitton website, you can know the whole progress in detail. In product personalization column, please select any product from the menu. Take Pegase 45 for example. Click the bottom of PERSONALIZATION: Add you initials. Then this complimentary service is for you. Choose up to 3 letters and color. Use dot symbol between letters or vertical display mode as you like. This elegant accent of a hot-stamped personal monogram adds a singular sophistication to your leather pieces.

Every company on any industry is struggling on the economic meltdown, especially for luxury companies. When Europeans and North Americans tighten their belts, newly-emerging wealthy classes in China are desperately chasing for anything that will shows their affluence and status. However, it is predicted that China will become the one of the biggest luxury market in the future as its neighbor and archrival-Japan, but out of those optimistic hype, it is still a tough nut to crack.

09.06.15-Tommy-China Luxury Market-Not Just a Bed of Rose 01.jpgAlcoholic beverages is always the precursor to a new market. Although almost every brewery in China adopts foreign formulas or technologies, luxury liquor producers still doubt with the prospect. Champagne house Taittinger said it could make high-end sparkling wine in China but the market was not ready for it yet, while Lamborghini said the country’s tradition of luxury chauffeurs, bigger than sports driving, made expansion there a challenge. The luxury watchmaker’s Chief Executive Jean-Marc Jacot said. Taittinger said there were many places in China where it could consider making high quality sparkling wine – champagne can only be made in the northern French region – but Chinese palates were not accustomed yet to the pricey tipple. “It is probably a bit early,” Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger said. “There is not a strong (high-end) wine culture there yet.”

Another concern is business culture diversity. Jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels, owned by Richemont, found it tough to get its brand message across, while watchmaker Parmigiani Fleurier worried about finding the right partners. “The specific challenge about China is finding a Chinese company you can trust and who understands the luxury business,”

Counterfeits are always the top obstacles for luxury companies to succeed in China Market. Hermes, whose chic handbags are hand made in France, would consider making goods in China if it could find artisans to make original items, but said it suffered from counterfeiting there. “Our image is strongly damaged by counterfeits. That is why we are fighting it like hell,” CEO Patrick Thomas said. “When they (in China) see a counterfeit, they think it is genuine.”

09.06.15-Tommy-China Luxury Market-Not Just a Bed of Rose 02.jpgCounterfeits cost luxury groups hundreds of millions of Euros in lost sales every year and imitations are becoming increasingly refined and sophisticated.” The challenge in China is being able to explain to 1.3 billion people what your brand is about,” said Van Cleef & Arpels Chief Executive Stanislas de Quercize.

While the number of high net worth individuals in China is set to continue to rise steadily, the bulk of the country’s population cannot afford up market Western brands. But luxury groups agree that China, where consumers are very brand-conscious, will soon become the industry’s No 1 market and this year will be one of the few emerging markets to enjoy growth. So it’s certainly a rose bed but you have to nurture it by heart.
