From fashion finds to superyachts and secret underground clubs, Chivas Luxury Guide rounds up the best in luxury for you
The new generation of affluent consumers encompasses aspects of identity, heritage, ambition, and way of life. Within this group, we find a spectrum of individuals, ranging from the celebrated crypto-enthusiasts and adventurous trendsetters to advocates of inclusivity and those who adopt environmentally-conscious habits in their daily routines.
In alignment with this evolving pattern of luxury consumption, Chivas and The Established have come together to craft a comprehensive guide to celebrate World Luxury Day, celebrated on October 3. As luxury assumes a fresh persona within immersive digital realms and experiences, we applaud those timeless symbols undergoing contemporary transformations, offering a nostalgic touch; to recognise emerging influencers who are shaping taste, and spotlight remarkable statement items that feature prominently on the wish lists of discerning consumers everywhere.
Collectively, they are fashioning a fresh definition of luxury, distinct from the conventional emblems associated with established luxury brands. Instead, this new concept of luxury is characterised by the prospect of boundless potential and personal uniqueness.
We hope you enjoy browsing through this list as much as we did putting it together.
