What determines the consumer to buy a particular bag or shoe or other luxury item depends on many factors. The main factor generally being, price followed by quality then style. These factors also rely on demographic and psychographic. In terms of high-end brands such as those in business with New Zealand Luxury Group, high-craftsmanship is expected as these brands have a high reputation to uphold being quality and style as core values. When a garment looks, feels, smells luxurious, as will the wearer and this is the case for all products. When evoking the feeling of luxury the most common words used are quality, rare or bespoke, comfortable, classic and stylish. Encapsulating these themes within a design framework will allow us to create an experience of luxury that will also encompass New Zealand as a place of said luxury.
