Burberry CEO Joshua Schulman on rejuvenating the brand and being clear on purpose: 💡“We have the most opportunity where have the most authenticity.” 💡”In luxury, you always want to have an element of surprise but it has to be rooted in the core equities of the brand.” 💡 “It’s not 1999 so you hear on social media immediately if your brand isn’t resonating.” 💡 “The brands that stood still are the ones that don’t exist today.” #nrf #nrf2025 #burberry #retail #ukretail

It's no secret that the luxury market has been slowing down. Both middle and higher income consumers have been moderating their purchases of higher-end items for some time. The market hasn't collapsed, but the shift in demand has put significant pressure on many luxury brands. But not all are suffering equally. I chatted with Retail Week to look at how winners are standing out from losers in a troubled luxury market. https://lnkd.in/eHhHjbBX #retail #retailnews #luxury #consumers #economy

The Rise of Quiet Luxury and Its Lessons for Brand Strategy The term “quiet luxury” has been making waves in fashion recently, with brands like Loro Piana and Brunello Cucinelli showing us that understated exclusivity is the new badge of wealth. But what’s the lesson for the rest of us? As consumers become more discerning and status-signaling shifts from logos to legacy, brands that focus on depth, quality, and experience will win. For businesses, this means ditching the loud marketing gimmicks and focusing on creating products and services that speak for themselves. How can your brand evoke the feeling of luxury without shouting? Think less about hype and more about substance. #QuietLuxury #BrandStrategy #CustomerExperience #Minimalism #ExclusivityInBranding
