What is Quiet Luxury and why is it in fashion?

        Although maximalism continues to thrive on the runway, with multiple fashion houses presenting clothes with vibrant colors and covered in logos, many luxury brands have been embracing the ''quiet luxury'' trend. Moreover, brand and designers like: The Row, Ferragamo and Khaite support this concept.

What is the Quiet Luxury aesthetic?

        The trend is all about timeless pieces put together and good materials. This is the reason why designers who support the aesthetic prefer leather, silk, cashmere and wool. As for colors, neutral colors such as white, beige and gray dominate the market. Furthermore, the right selection of jewelry and bags is crucial, since they are the part of the look that must standout. Lastly, all clothing pieces should be carefully and perfectly tailored, while blazers and coats should also be well structured. People now seem to prefer good quality and classic designs over clothing that screams money.

        

The History of the aesthetic

        The quiet luxury aesthetic is not new. In fact, this concept can be found in America during the 19th century Gilded Age, as well as in France in the 1700s. Nowadays, the trend has emerged again due to the fact that people who are financially secure avoid showcasing their wealth, while others are struggling.
