Once luxury was available only to the rarefied and aristocratic world of old money and royalty. It offered a history of tradition, superior quality, and a pampered buying experience. Today, however, luxury is simply a product packaged and sold by multibillion-dollar global corporations focused on growth, visibility, brand awareness, advertising, and, above all, profits. Award-winning journalist Dana Thomas digs deep into the dark side of the luxury industry to uncover all the secrets that Prada, Gucci, and Burberry don?t want us to know. Deluxe is an uncompromising look behind the glossy façade that will enthrall anyone interested in fashion, finance, or culture.

She began her career writing for the Style section of The Washington Post in Washington, D.C. and from 1995 to 2008, she served as the European cultural and fashion correspondent for Newsweek in Paris. Most recently, she was the European editor of Condé Nast Portfolio. She has written for the New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Los Angeles Times and Financial Times in London and serves as the Paris correspondent for Australian Harper's Bazaar.

評分Thomas: Luxury has lost its luster.
无论你了不了解奢侈品牌,《奢侈的!》都是很值得阅读的一本作品。书的副标题“奢侈品如何失去它的光芒”(how luxury lost its lustre)简明扼要地交待出作者的观点。“众所周知,奢侈品起源于古老的欧洲王室,开风气之先的是法国宫廷,那儿为挥霍铺张的生活方式树立了典...
評分 評分还记得以前看过一篇文章写到,你不要以为自己自己有个LV的包,有个Gucci的眼镜,有多几件大牌的奢侈品就以为自己是有钱人,真正有钱人的世界你根本不懂。的确,仅仅拥有几件叫得出名的大牌而已,对大牌又了解多少呢? 刚工作的头两年工资不高,但是同一批进来的同事...
評分在奢侈品民主化的浪潮下,每个国家都有一大批奢侈品牌的忠实粉丝,但不同国家的粉丝对奢侈品的态度却有所不同。 日本人对商品品质显示出无人企及的挑剔。“他们对细节的专注,对品质的要求,无可匹敌,毫不妥协。”香奈儿日本分公司董事长理查德•克拉斯(Richard Collasse...
評分整本书的结构比较杂乱,每个品牌的历史和故事穿插在各个章节里,而且每个章节的内容很多时候跟章节标题没有什么关系。如果可以按照品牌来划分章节,条理会更清晰一些。 作者对细节的描述非常到位,态度客观,我没看出她有太多的批判性,很多品牌的历史一一叙述。有一个观点是...
