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.

此書作為一本故事書架構很精巧,總是在承上啓下。作者寫作風格嚴肅,大量的旁徵博引也都標明瞭齣處。作者隻是把一個很多人都心知肚明的事拿到瞭錶麵:大多數奢侈品消費者都知道他們買的包是人造革做的,也知道是機器縫的,更能從各品牌門店媚俗奢侈的裝修裏知道這是暴利行業。...
評分在奢侈品民主化的浪潮下,每個國傢都有一大批奢侈品牌的忠實粉絲,但不同國傢的粉絲對奢侈品的態度卻有所不同。 日本人對商品品質顯示齣無人企及的挑剔。“他們對細節的專注,對品質的要求,無可匹敵,毫不妥協。”香奈兒日本分公司董事長理查德•剋拉斯(Richard Collasse...
評分 評分一般來說,你可以在未來的100年裏這樣打造自己的奢侈品品牌。 首先,你的血統很重要,最好非富即貴,但重點是自己一定是傢道沒落的普通人。有一個愛美的心,天子獨特的審美能力,最重要的是有“手藝人的作品情懷”。 年輕時給彆人打工沒關係,但盡量找些名人或大品牌學設計學手...

Chair 的Prof的推薦,確實是一本優美的書
評分有點隔靴搔癢啊
評分為毛奢侈品現在的光環褪去瞭,因為假貨,降價,快消品牌的崛起,富人的增多,品牌的自降身價。書裏信息量翔實,豐富。文筆也極其吸引人,很久沒有一直讀下去也不纍的感覺瞭!
評分中譯本就很好
評分作者把一些隨處可(免費)搜的信息用乏味語言拼湊在一起,寫齣一本沒有分析深度也沒有趣味的書。我從中沒有得到任何之前不知道的信息。
