Luxury brands are exploring new digital trends like curation, bespoke experiences, and intimacy. Digital allows for more personalized communication and customization through tools like customization configurators and bespoke services. Brands are also embracing digital culture through collaborations with artists and designers and drawing inspiration from elements of digital culture like memes, gifs and video games. Curation is also important as brands and users curate content and experiences on digital platforms.

13. MAKER CULTURE
Luxury and digital have in common a culture of craftmanship, where amateurs and unique handymade technologies
born in smal workshop are at the heart of innovation. "Culture of maker" is about this spirit of making, whether it is
making prototypes, perfomances, hacking, or unique pieces. As Jean-Louis Dumas (Hermès) used to say: « The
wolrd is divided into two: those who know how to use tools, and those who do not. »

KIDULT VS MARC JACOB
Making something out of
everything
After Louboutin or Hermès, French graffiti artist Kidult covered Marc
Jacob window store with the word « art » and sent a picture of his action
on Twitter. But Marc Jacob stroke back and made a limited edition t-shirt
out of it, titled « Art by Art Jacob ». The t-shirt was sold like a piece of art
at $689 in the same store in NY, and the news spread on Twitter again.
Kidult was pissed, and fired back with a shirt of his own - "Not art by
Kidult" - selling it for about $10. Finally, a blogger heard the story and
took a picture of Marc Jacob’s piece to make an ultimate t-shirt, as an
ironic mise-en-abîme.

MONTBLANC
The beauty of a second
Making every second count
190 years ago, Nicolas Rieussec recorded time to an accuracy of a fifth
second for the first time - the chronograph was born. To celebrate this
unique invention, Mont Blanc has challenged image makers to capture
beauty in a single second of a film. The film contest hosted by Wim
Wender was conceived as an exploration of presision and art – a
hommage to capturing the smallest fragments of time. The results: a
wonderful collection of one second video clips from the first rounds,
followed by a beautiful film. More recently, Montblanc created a new
challenge: WorldSecond, asking people in different places to take a picture
at the exact same second.

difference being that all the products you find on this social network are for
sale. The user can add products that they like and share them with their
friends. The higher the positive response rate to the product, the more
visible it becomes on the site. This network represents one of the biggest
virtual storefronts in the world, and is fed by Internet users, who become
just like Colette.

« Parce qu’il contient l’idée de déviation, d’écart, liée à son étymologie, le mot luxe se fonde sur une obliquité sémantiquje, une volatilité intrinsèque, qui permet d’osciller sans cesse entre des pôles contraires, récusant toute définition figée. »Séverine Charon
