It is Valentine's Day, and Dior is on many minds. Particularly those of European stock traders, since owner LVMH is went parabolic late last month. For our minds may be on hearth-shaped baubles tonight, but we like ina a K-shaped world. Economic trajectories diverge sharply and easily, akin to the two arms of the letter K -- which arm are you on makes a large difference, rather quickly. So what are the lessons from haute couture this Valentine's Day? 1️⃣ 𝗔𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 In a K-shaped economy, adaptability reigns supreme. A house like Dior, to create its storied history, has to seamlessly adapt to evolving tastes, trends and rules. We need to be agile, embracing all change as an opportunity for growth. 2️⃣ 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 Dior's enduring appeal is its timeless elegance, and it was not made in no time at all. Likewise, in a K-shaped economy, we need to invest in enduring values — quality and relationships. 3️⃣ 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱 Just like Dior in a wardrobe or dresser, expanding once we land is key to prosper in times of economic disparities. In a K-shaped world, relationships matter more. So once you have one, how do you bring in higher value? 4️⃣ 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 In a K-shaped economy, the meaning of social proof changes rapidly. Building strong networks in your target community is a bigger strength than "mere fundamentals". So today, let us draw inspiration from Dior's timeless allure, and apply these lessons to prosper in a K-shaped economy - agility, investing time, expanding value and a community. In the dance of macro complexities, may your step be as elegant as those gracing the runway for Dior. 💼📈 #Macro #KShapedEconomy #Business #Change #Community #Investment

——J’adore!!—— Dior’s latest campaign with Rihanna brilliantly captures the modernization of a traditional brand, with an unapologetic tone that makes a bold statement. By choosing Rihanna, Dior sends to my opinion multiple messages – from inclusivity to diversity, from brand heritage to a story of femininity and empowerment. The campaign is a masterclass in shaping a brand's message, embodying authenticity, exclusivity, craftsmanship, elegance, and sophistication. What impresses me most is that Dior through that new campaign doesn't just sell a product; « they tell the world what they stand for » With Rihanna, they blend tradition and modern values, creating a dynamic space where luxury isn’t just about the goods but about a lifestyle. It got me thinking – what if we reimagined luxury hospitality in the same way? People love to buy but don’t like feeling like something’s being sold to them. In the hotel world, should we be selling services or should we, like Dior, create a “sympathetic capital,” a connection first? What if we sold emotions instead of services? Like Rolls-Royce sells status, not cars, or Apple sells trends, not just phones – How could we (hotel professionals, medias and influencers) elevate the marketing message to showcase a luxury hotel stay as something more meaningful than just images of clear waters, grilling meat, stirring cocktails, or displaying suites? More to come….

Last month while strolling around a mall I came across a Dior store that said "One spray and you are dressed in Dior." Perfumes are the cheapest and the most affordable product these luxury fashion bands produce. An averge Dior bag is worth ₹3,00,000 but their perfumes are around ₹15,000 for 50ml. These luxury brands cater to the richest people of the society. The middle and upper middle class try to imitate them and the best way they can do it is by using the same brand as the rich. The best proof is how people go gaga over brands and tags. These brands know that average people can not afford their clothes, shoes and bags but one can afford their perfumes if the person saves enough. This marketing technique by Dior "seems" like it's breaking class struggle and urging middle class people to buy Dior perfumes in order to be 'dressed' in it so that they can boast about using Dior product. A pretty powerful technique I'd say. #dior #marketing #luxury #fashion #branding #luxuryfashionbrand

The evolution of luxury packaging dates back to the early 19th and 20th centuries. Companies like DIOR not only focused on producing exquisite products but also placed considerable emphasis on the presentation of their goods through luxurious packaging. Miss Dior first bottle was sold on December 1st, 1947, nine months after the revolution of the “New Look”. This first bottle was designed to mirror the silhouette Christian Dior dreamt for the modern and elegant woman. An amphora: feminine, curvaceous, timeless. The amphora, a shape that resembles something between an hourglass and a flower, speaks of classic beauty and youth. Dior’s “New Look” ended the era of frugality in fashion and cosmetics forced by the wartime. Exquisite packaging can leave a lasting impression on consumers, fostering brand loyalty and encouraging repeat purchases. When consumers have a positive experience with a product, including its packaging, they are more likely to remain loyal to the brand and recommend it to others.

Never chase after your dreams, as I believe dreams chase us to play a role on the planet and make a significant impact. Time is the most valuable and precious commodity; only time can evaluate and enable us to use every second and hour to become better and better. Eventually, we will become a unique version, incomparable and an indescribable superpower hidden for countless years and tears. Time is a crucial factor, but another universal factor is investing your time to build a path. As we are not yet at the top of the world, empowering and building a life for ourselves is the legacy. Taking a laid-back and slow pace is considered bold steps encompassing a crystal clear vision and mission towards your dreams. Even Celine Dion got up and crawled to bring her best to her global audience. Plans will fall apart if we rush in or if a contingency plan is not thoroughly established. Use your superpower to attract and lead; that's the Law of Attraction to bring the right people around you." We don't chase, but we attract, like Vogue, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Christian Dior Couture, and Hermès. This is the law of attraction on the runway. Dreams are chasing us…💭 #Today #Tomorrow #Superpower #Attraction

Founder & Retail Quant Strategist ➤ I see, illuminate, and transform hidden revenue drivers for luxury brands (€3.5B+ Reoccurring Revenue). Let's talk.
First-hand experience: Dior's $2,800 bag's $57 secret was exposed to a Christian Dior Couture customer. I overheard in an Amsterdam restaurant: "That Dior bag? It's garbage. It costs only $57 to make." The owner's face? A cocktail of embarrassment, anger, and regret—emotions no luxury brand wants to be associated with its products. Yet Dior and others embrace it, almost with pride. This seemingly trivial incident exposes a more profound crisis for luxury brands. It's not just about cost-cutting; it's about the unseen, unheard consequences of prioritising profit margins over customer experience. The high price of low quality: The customer feedback data reveals a staggering 90% customer disconnect for Dior, translating to over $7 billion in lost annual revenue. One of the culprits? Quality. Imagine the ripple effect: a Dior bag falls apart, the owner feels duped, and their trust is shattered. They share their experience, tarnishing Dior's reputation. Potential customers hesitate. Quality is a billion-dollar blind spot: Is Dior's Delphine Arnault, CEO, aware that they're actively driving away over a billion in turnover? Did the LVMH Executive Board approve this strategy? Perhaps their hubris is immune from the true cost of cutting corners. It has, after all, been an incredible playbook for the group to date. The long-term cost of a damaged reputation and lost loyalty dwarfs any short-term savings from cheaper production. True luxury is not just about the price tag; it's about creating an emotional connection with each customer. When brands prioritise cost-cutting over quality, they risk severing that emotional connection, leading to severe and unintended consequences. After I arrived home, I was intrigued by what I had heard and searched Google. The (first link) returned is shared here. How can luxury brands strike the right balance between profitability and preserving their reputation for quality? #StrategicDetective #CustomerExcellence #LuxuryBrands #QualityMatters #BrandReputation #HiddenCosts #Dior https://lnkd.in/eBwbhYvw

Let’s Play Luxury Brand Fun Fact ✨ This is a luxury brand that the whole world knew but I assume only few is familiar with the story. For someone who loves and enjoy long history, rich heritage, culture, story telling, absolutely it’s a symphony with a beautiful melody to my ears. I learned it back when I did my ExecEdu. So how can I forget stories when I, myself, grew up listening to stories a lot? #Royals #Monarchs #Mythology #Poetry #Fairytales #Romance #Legends #History How did Mr. Bernard Arnault landed with Christian Dior? Ever since, Mr. Bernard Arnault was always interested with Christian Dior. In 1971, He was traveling to New York. It was his first time at the Kennedy Airport. He took a cab and he started talking to the cab driver. The driver loves France and he was interested in politics. The driver didn’t like the US President and at that time it was President Nixon. So Mr. Arnault asked the driver what does he knew about France and if he knew who the French President was. And the driver said that he didn’t know BUT he knew Christian Dior. That’s when the 22 year-old Mr. Arnault knew the power of a name. Lo and behold, in 1978, the brand Christian Dior was under a failing conglomerate called Boussac Saint-Frère. The company filed for bankruptcy. And guess who was pleased and happy with the news? Mr. Bernard Arnault, of course! Knowing it was music to his ears. As a young boy, he loved the brand. Call it destiny? You may say so. Christian Dior is not just Christian Dior. I believe this is one, if not, the richest story and history there is. This is just a snippet. The 30 Avenue Montaigne is not just a place but it’s an iconic building because that same address that exist today is where Christian Dior built his first house. PS: Photo is the Corolla Collection. Guess who opposed when Christian Dior released it? Your guess is good as mine. 😆 If I miss out on the story, let me know. Looking forward to visit the La Galerie Dior as I have questions and curiosity lining up already. Another interesting story I’ve been researching and scanning as of this time is the original “IT” Group of the Luxury Fashion World. If you have a good recommendation of book, archives etc, please let me know.
