The Luxury Consumer Revolt | When Exclusivity Becomes Exclusion
Fifty million luxury consumers abandoned the market as prices rose 52% since 2019, validating our strategic analysis. Shopping became bureaucratic rather than enjoyable, creating "greedflation" backlash. This explains why focused authentic luxury and accessible premium succeed while confused positioning fails. Digital disruption made scarcity meaningless, consumers shifted to experiential wealth, and alternatives emerged from vintage to "dupes." Consumer choice now determines luxury strategy success.

Preview | The American Luxury Renaissance - A Different Path to Success
American luxury brands Coach and Ralph Lauren are outperforming struggling European rivals with +50%+ stock gains and double-digit sales growth. They succeeded by maintaining accessible pricing ($200-$500) while European brands priced themselves out of reach, capturing young consumers and growing strongly in China. This reveals a three-tier luxury hierarchy: ultra-luxury focused (Hermès), accessible luxury done right (Americans), and confused middle (struggling Europeans). Strategic clarity beats geographic heritage.
