Is luxury dead? That is the question at the heart of La Culture de l’Écart, the new documentary from L’Oréal Luxe, and I was honored to take part as one of its voices. The idea I am proudest to have brought into the conversation is one close to me: Kintsugi, the art of repairing what is broken by filling the cracks with gold. It became the thread the film returns to, from its opening question to its final one. The cracks in luxury are real. We can hide them and let it all shatter, or fill them with gold. Full film out now on @lorealgroupe @youtube channel. The fuller thinking is on Beyond Luxury, link in bio. 🎬

Design today increasingly moves like fashion. Limited editions are released in drops, and objects often circulate online long before they are experienced in person. Designers collaborate with Maisons, enter seasonal rhythms, and build recognition not only through what they make, but through how it is photographed, shared, and circulated. In our latest conversation, @archdigest 100 designer @wendyandreu reflects on what happens when design adopts fashion’s rhythm, and what must be protected in the process.

Luxury decision-making is moving upstream, into systems that interpret brands before clients ever engage. Browsing gives way to delegation. Visibility gives way to interpretation. And misreading now carries more risk than absence. In the latest Code of Desire, we explore how agentic commerce is rewriting luxury power, why brands are increasingly judged by machines first, and what happens when meaning is compressed into recommendations. If you work in luxury, beauty, fashion, hospitality, or culture, this shift is already shaping how your brand is chosen, compared, and remembered. Read it before the system decides for you. #linkinbio

In our latest Emerging Voices feature, @graceforserenity co-founder @loucharleedana explains why the future of luxury depends just as much on what happens after the sale as what happens before it. Their recent GRACE x Merkle study reveals a striking data point: 66% of clients wear their pieces less often due to theft concerns. This shift is already changing how desire, usage, and loyalty work in today’s market. Lou and her co-founders Quentin Roy and Martin Lenweiter are building a new layer of luxury experience that meets this moment head-on: fast, branded, and designed around emotional security.

This week, our founder @carlotarodben opened Vogue Forces of Fashion Kyiv @vogue_ukraine . Created by Anna Wintour, the initiative brings global voices together to reimagine the future of fashion and culture — and Ukraine is one of the six counties Anna personally selected to host it. In her keynote, Carlota explored what happens when the systems around us start to crack — and why those fractures reveal the truth, the emotions, and the humanity luxury can no longer ignore. She spoke about desire changing form, creativity reclaiming its depth, and the new role of meaning in a world that feels fractured and fast. Thank you to the extraordinary Vogue Ukraine team for your vision and care. If you want to dive deeper into the ideas shared on stage, the full reflection is now on our Beyond Luxury Substack Publication!

You can discover everything, so why is it still so hard to keep track of it? @sreyahalder, Co-Founder of @themall.app, is building a live product database designed to track what’s actually moving across fashion in real time. The platform began as a way for shoppers to organize the brands they care about. But it’s also revealing something deeper: retail teams are still making seasonal decisions with limited visibility into what’s actually happening across the market. In our latest Emerging Voices conversation, she shares how that gap emerged, and why closing it may reshape the future of multi-brand retail.

If we believe that human judgment is what separates brands that matter from brands that merely exist, what does that actually mean in the age of AI? Every brand now has access to the same generative tools, the same production speed, the same ability to fill every channel with polished content. And yet something is being lost in the acceleration, a quality of discernment, of deliberate choice, of someone specific taking responsibility for what gets made and why. Our latest article provides a framework on how to scale your technology structure without diminishing the art of human craftsmanship. Read the full article on Beyond Luxury #linkinbio
