Chanel is entering a new chapter as it scales back its aggressive price hikes in favor of long-term brand equity investments, as covered in a detailed piece by Glossy's Zofia Zwieglinska. After raising prices by a staggering 59% from 2020 to 2023, Chanel implemented a much more modest 3% increase in 2024. This shift comes in response to a cooling luxury market, increased consumer resistance, and a 7% drop in sales volume. Bernstein analysts highlighted growing "value for money" concerns among Chanel’s clientele, especially in key markets like China and the U.S. Instead of leaning further into price as a proxy for prestige, Chanel is now prioritizing strategic brand investments: from expanding its boutique network in emerging markets to deepening control of its supply chain and bolstering craftsmanship. This move underscores the brand’s commitment to authenticity and long-term value creation rather than short-term gains. The article also references pricing intelligence from Luxurynsight, spotlighting the platform’s role in tracking luxury market dynamics and helping to contextualize Chanel’s pricing decisions.

Special thanks to journalist Zofia Zwieglinska for the thoughtful mention of Luxurynsight in this important luxury industry analysis.
Thank you to Fashion Network for highlighting Luxurynsight’s Retail Dynamics report Fall-Winter 2025 and showcasing the latest trends in luxury retail activations. Our Retail Activations Dynamics report highlights how luxury brands are increasingly opening immersive and unique retail spaces worldwide to create memorable customer experiences. The Asia-Pacific region leads with 60% of activations, followed by significant growth in North America (+95%) and the Middle East/Africa (+76%). Brands like Vuitton, Prada, Burberry, Gucci, and Dior dominate the landscape, with pop-ups thriving especially in China, Japan, and the US, led by players like Hermès, Vuitton, and Coach. Noteworthy initiatives include multisensory experiences and thematic pop-ups, such as Diptyque's jazz club in Malaysia and Coach’s interactive café in Melbourne. Additionally, the report highlights the growing trend of seasonal retail spaces in winter sports destinations, with Asia seeing a rise in ski-related activations, including The North Face’s giant installation in Harbin. In Europe, traditional ski resorts show mixed performance, while brands emphasize hospitality and wellness as core components of their retail concepts. These temporary spaces are evolving into social hubs designed to deepen customer engagement beyond conventional product sales. For more insights, read the full article on the Fashion Network website.

Big brands like LVMH, Kering, and Burberry are seeing slower sales. Reasons include weaker demand in China, new U.S. tariffs, and the end of tax-free shopping in the UK. Prices have also jumped—up 65% since 2019—which is turning off shoppers. On top of that, younger consumers are buying more second-hand and care more about sustainability. Emerging e-commerce brands offering luxury styles at lower prices without traditional overheads are also gaining traction, indicating a potential paradigm shift in consumer preferences and the industry's structure. Jonathan Siboni, CEO of Luxurynsight, summed it up clearly: “Fashion is facing a perfect storm.” Discover more on what's happening with the industry in the article! Thanks to The Times and John Arlidge for including us in the article.
Following its €1.25 billion acquisition of Versace, Prada faces a significant integration challenge: reviving a storied brand whose maximalist aesthetic and commercial performance have faltered in a rapidly evolving luxury landscape. More than a turnaround effort, this move signals Prada’s broader ambition to build Italy’s first true luxury conglomerate—stepping into a space long dominated by French powerhouses like LVMH and Kering. Where others see divergence, Prada sees opportunity. “Versace and Prada are two worlds apart,” notes Jonathan Siboni, CEO of Luxurynsight, adding that Versace is “commercially all but dead.” As Donatella Versace steps back, newly appointed creative director Dario Vitale—formerly of Miu Miu—will be tasked with maintaining Versace’s bold DNA while addressing structural gaps in product categories. Prada’s expertise in leather goods and footwear may prove instrumental in rebalancing the brand’s offer and restoring long-term profitability. We are grateful to journalist John Arlidge for featuring our CEO Jonathan Siboni’s insights on the strategic divergence—and potential synergy—between these two iconic houses.

The luxury industry in China is undergoing a major shift in 2025. After years of mega runway shows and VIP-only events, brands are now embracing public-facing exhibitions to engage a wider audience. According to our CEO, Jonathan Siboni, this transformation is not just a trend but a strategic move—with 192 exhibitions by 48 luxury brands in 2024 alone, the numbers speak for themselves. Why exhibitions? They provide an experiential way to showcase craftsmanship, heritage, and creativity. They cater to China’s growing cultural confidence and interest in artisanal crafts. They create exclusivity and excitement, attracting high-net-worth individuals and fostering long-term brand desirability. As Jonathan notes, luxury exhibitions serve as a cultural bridge, transforming how Chinese consumers perceive brands. With 2025 already seeing as many exhibitions as last year, this shift reflects the industry's commitment to innovation, storytelling, and deeper connections with its audience. A big thank you to Denni Hu for covering this important industry evolution in WWD. Read the full article below

The luxury market in China isn’t reversing but rebalancing. Post-COVID, Chinese consumers are once again shopping abroad, with Japan seeing a 52% sales boost for LVMH, while China’s market shrinks by 18-20%. A key driver? Luxury price gaps—products can be up to 30% cheaper overseas. Consumer behavior is also shifting, with a growing focus on experiences over ownership. Meanwhile, high-quality “dupes” challenge brands by offering luxury aesthetics at lower prices. The industry must adapt by reinforcing brand equity and pricing strategies.
