Our purpose with this research has been to obtain a deeper insight and understanding for the phenomenon and term “weekday-luxury.” Through our research, we have found a link between value, service, brands and consumer behaviour into a relationship that we termed “weekday-luxury.” This link of values is particularly interesting to us and we are curious about the underlying motivation to “weekday-luxury” and the driving forces underlying the phenomenon. We have noticed in society that people need something extra in their daily lives and we attempt to speculate where their perceived value lies through the concept of “weekday-luxury." Our goal is to determine a deeper understanding and insight into this phenomenon and how it meets our needs through an identifiable pattern. We also analyze the nature of “weekday-luxury” and its meaning. This essay further focuses on peoples effort to “treat ourselves” from which we have chosen a market-oriented perspective, as well as a quantitative method, from which we have performed eight personal interviews and three mail interviews.

Nowadays, the luxury market is experiencing an intensive competition trend. Business is hard to survive from distinguish itself from other brands. Creating superior customer experience seems to be one of the vital objectives to remain competitive advantage in current retailing environments. This study was designed to investigate differences between levels of loyalty, perceived brand experience and retail experience, among shoppers from a luxury brand. Data for this study were collected from a convenience sample of 200 participants who were selected with personally experienced of a luxury brand. Descriptive statistics were compiled on data for all respondents. Data were analyzed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to further assess the reliability of the scale. In addition, structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to observe the relationships among the constructs and to test the remaining hypotheses. Results of the study demonstrated differences among brand and retail experience that suggested as drivers to afford experience to customer that successfully effectively affacting customer¡¦s emotion positively towards a significant luxury brand. Furthermore, the degree of expectation fulfillments generates satisfaction which, in turn intensifies intentions toward repatronage decision in the future. Therefore, both brand experience and retail experience embrace valuable feedback and feedforward to brand development strategies and assist in achieving a mutually beneficial commitment for the brand to gain the edge.

Despite growing concerns for environmental crisis and the recent economic downturns, worldwide appetite for luxury goods has remained stable and has even grown dramatically in some countries. Luxury goods implicitly convey certain meanings and norms. What are psychological and behavioural consequences of exposure to luxuries? In this proposal, I argue that exposure to luxury goods increases cognitive accessibility of constructs relate to self-interest and subsequently affects social judgments and behaviour. I aim to establish a theoretical conjunction between (a) anthropology’s study of material culture, which focuses on material evidence in attributing human cultures, and (b) psychology’s priming technique, which examines the effects of activated cognitive representations on psychological responding. Accordingly, three studies were conducted to investigate the implicit link of luxury and self-interest. The results showed that exposure to luxury primes automatically activated mental associations relate to self-interest and subsequently increased one’s propensity to allocate more resources to oneself relative to another person (study 1), caused some harvesters to defect in a multi-stage N-person commons dilemma (study 2), but did not necessarily induce unethical behaviour aimed to harm others (study 3). Research about the psychological effects of luxury goods are important because luxuries are implicitly embedded in institutional settings and organizational environments in which negotiations are typically conducted and resource allocation decisions are made. / Graduate / 0621 / 0623 / 0451 / angelch@uvic.ca

Att gå från en nationell till en internationell etablering innebär en finansiell risk, men samtidigt stora möjligheter för en modeentreprenör. Frankrike anses som en av de viktigaste modemarknaderna i världen och så även för modeentreprenörer. Marknaden karakteriseras av lyxmode, men få svenska modeentreprenörer lyckas etablera sig i detta segment. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka vilka utmaningar som kan uppkomma för svenska modeentreprenörer vid etablering på den franska marknaden inom lyxsegmentet. Avgränsningar har gjorts i enlighet med studiens syfte, för att kunna besvara studiens frågeställningar och för att kunna lyfta upp resultatet ur sin kontext och applicera på internationellt entreprenörskap inom lyxsegmentet. Utlandsbaserat entreprenörskap behandlas genom att studiens fokus har lagts på etablering på den franska marknaden och lyxsegmentet. Kvalitativa intervjuer och ett kvantitativt frågeformulär har använts för att skapa en bred och djup förståelse för hur svenska modeentreprenörer resonerar kring internationellt entreprenörskap inom modebranschen generellt, och på den franska marknaden inom lyxsegmentet i synnerhet. Generella etableringsteorier kring utlandsbaserat entreprenörskap och lyxmarknaden samt internationaliseringsprocesser presenteras. Resultatet visar att den franska marknaden och dess lyxsegment till stora drag är som andra internationella marknader inom Europa. Marknadens långa historia inom lyxsegmentering har dock medfört att den har utvecklat institutioner och ramverk för lyxmodeföretag. Dessa fakta kan innebära såväl möjligheter som utmaningar. / Expanding a business into international markets poses some significant financial risks, but also presents business opportunities for a fashion entrepreneur. The French fashion market is one of the most powerful in the world, which makes the market important for fashion entrepreneurs. The market is characterized by luxury goods, but few Swedish fashion entrepreneurs succeed with establishment in the luxury segment. This thesis aims to examine the challenges that might arise when entering the french market and luxury segment as a swedish fashion entrepreneaur. The major focus of the study is international entrepreneurship, and the reserach has been carried out to benefit the wider industry. In order to perform the research a combination of the qualitative and quantiative approach has been used. Internationalization processes, general establishment theories of international entrepreneurship and definitions of the luxury market and luxury segmentation are presented. The qualitative data was collected through three in-depth interviews. The interviews were held with one professor, one swedish company established as a luxury company on the frenchmarket, and one swedish fashion company in the higher price segment that has been established on the french market. The quantiative data was collected through a questionnarie put out to 20 new-established fashion companies in the higher price segment. The results show that there is indeed a correspondance between luxury segmentation and establishment on the french market and establishement on international markets in Europe. But, the long history of luxury segmentation in France have resulted in institutions and frameworks for fashion luxury companies and the luxury industry. These facts can mean both opportunities and challenges for swedish fashion entrepreneurs.

A presente pesquisa consistiu em identificar a imagem percebida pelo consumidor em relação ao valor da marca em perfumes de luxo. Com a evolução do Marketing ao longo dos anos muitas mudanças e aperfeiçoamentos foram necessárias para que o marketing viesse contribuir para o desenvolvimento e crescimento das organizações, bem como, incentivar o consumo no mercado. Com isso, o entendimento do comportamento do consumidor é importante para saber e compreender as necessidades e desejos do consumidor e, também, o comportamento da oferta e da demanda. Neste aspecto, o comportamento do consumidor aborda um sistema de configuração de imagem que consiste no inter-relacionamento, explicações e experiências (emocionais e racionais) do consumidor com o ambiente fazendo com que uma imagem seja gerada na mente do cliente. Além disso, é importante saber como o consumidor toma a decisão de compra, quais os fatores externos que influenciam esta geração de imagem no cognitivo. Neste sentido as classes sociais são destacadas, pois cada produto é criado para nichos específicos do mercado. Nesta pesquisa destaca-se o luxo buscando uma relação entre os fatores e, assim, surge o problema de pesquisa: Qual a afinidade existente entre imagem de marca, qualidade, envolvimento, imagem de preço e valor percebido em relação à intenção de compra? Para responder a esta pergunta a pesquisa se deteve em uma pesquisa quantitativa e, através de um experimento, estudou o comportamento do consumidor em relação ao perfume 212 MEN e 212 Sexy, perfumes caracterizados de luxo.

With the evolution of marketing over the years many changes and improvements were necessary for the marketing would contribute to the development and growth of organizations, as well as encouraging the consumption market. With this understanding of consumer behavior is important to know and understand the needs and desires of the consumer and also the behavior of supply and demand. In this respect, consumer behavior covers a system image configuration consisting of the inter-relationship, explanations and experiences (emotional and rational) consumer with the environment so that an image is generated in the mind of the customer. Furthermore, it is important to know how the consumer decides to buy, what external factors that influence this imaging in cognitive. In this sense social classes are highlighted, as each product is created for specific market niches. This research highlights the luxury seeking a relationship between the factors and thus arises the research problem: What is the affinity between brand image, quality, engagement, image price and perceived value in relation to the purchase intent? To answer this question, the research stopped in quantitative research and, through an experiment, studied consumer behavior in relation to perfume MEN 212 and 212 Sexy, perfumes featured luxury.

Experience and authenticity became important aspects in the field: consumers are enjoying more material comfort and there is a trend of a cultural shift for personal fulfillment and aspiration through experience. The biggest challenge for today's luxury marketers is to not only talk to the target, but to understand how the target is shifting, while not alienating consumers and damaging the brand´s image. Considering managers and consumers perspectives separately, it would be possible to conclude that their perceptions are congruent, as many studies have presented. However, if perspectives are put together and compared, different realities could emerge. This exploratory research is based on a case study that describes both perspectives of their perception on luxury experience, consumer behavior and consumption motivations, and luxury retailing. It was developed interviews with the brand owner and 10 brand´s consumers, and also indirect observations in the brands distribution formats. In the brand perspective, the case study has shown that luxury experience involves the construction of brand experience strategy based on products, multiple retail channels, consumer engagement, personal activity, exploration of five senses and other forms. In the consumer´s perspective, results revealed that brand consumers interviwed have different luxury experience perceptions and expectations; however, what is common is that service and quality must be maintained and they reflected the overall experience. Additionally, luxury retailing influences directly the consumer´s perception that must integrate multiple channels to fulfill personal demands. The research makes contributions for both actors - brand and consumer, in the sense that translates theoretical concepts of the experience itself and tries to clarify aspects that are still unknown and explored through the exploration of ways to detect the alignment between brand and consumer expectations of the experience. / O Mercado de luxo evoluiu ao longo dos séculos; novos desafios criaram questões de estratégias adequadas para as marcas. Experiência e autenticidade tornaram-se aspectos importantes no campo de estudo: os consumidores estão desfrutando de mais conforto material e há uma tendência de uma mudança cultural para a realização pessoal e aspiração através da experiência. O maior desafio para os profissionais de marketing de luxo de hoje não é só falar com o consumidor alvo, mas de entender como o alvo está mudando, sem alienar os consumidores e prejudicar a imagem da marca. Considerando as perspectivas das marcas e dos consumidores separadamente, seria possível concluir que as percepções são congruentes, como muitos estudos têm apresentado. No entanto, se as perspectivas são colocadas juntas e comparadas, realidades diferentes poderiam surgir. Esta pesquisa exploratória é baseada em um estudo de caso que descreve ambas as perspectivas de sua percepção sobre a experiência de luxo, comportamento do consumidor e motivações de consumo, e varejo de luxo. Foram desenvolvidas entrevistas com o dono da marca e 10 consumidores da marca, e também observações indiretas nos formatos de distribuição da marca. Na perspectiva da marca, o estudo de caso mostrou que a experiência de luxo envolve a construção da estratégia de experiência de marca com base em produtos, múltiplos canais de varejo, engajamento do consumidor, atividade pessoal, exploração dos cinco sentidos e outras formas. Na perspectiva dos consumidores, os resultados revelaram que os consumidores da marca têm diferentes percepções da experiência de luxo e expectativas; no entanto, o que é comum é que o serviço e qualidade devem ser mantidos e eles refletem a experiência como um todo. Além disso, os formatos de varejo de luxo influenciam diretamente a percepção dos consumidores, que devem integrar múltiplos canais para atender as demandas pessoais. A pesquisa faz contribuições para ambos os atores - marca e consumidor, no sentido de que traduz conceitos teóricos da própria experiência e tenta esclarecer aspectos ainda desconhecidos, e explora formas de detectar o alinhamento entre as expectativas da experiência das marcas e dos consumidores. Palavras-chave: Mercado de Luxo, experiência de luxo, Marketing Experiencial, comportamento do consumidor, motivações de Consumo, Varejo de Luxo.

[pt] Nas duas últimas décadas, o mercado de luxo tem passado por grandes transformações. Em particular, surgiu o que o mercado e alguns autores chamam de novo luxo. Esse novo mercado comporta o movimento masstige, que designa as iniciativas de algumas empresas de produtos de massa que vêm tentando atingir um público exigente e de poder aquisitivo elevado por meio do desenvolvimento de produtos sofisticados e diferenciados (COSTA, 2008). Trata-se de um mercado promissor em termos de lucratividade e também muito desafiador, dado que busca conciliar as características de marcas e produtos de luxo a um nível de massificação antes pouco usual nesse mercado. O novo luxo exige uma profunda compreensão do comportamento dos consumidores e de suas motivações de compra (SILVERSTEIN e FISKE, 2003). Esta pesquisa traz uma análise da estratégia da marca Nespresso, lançada pela Nestlé em 1976, posicionada no mercado de luxo e representante da tendência masstige. O objetivo principal da pesquisa é entender as percepções e motivações dos consumidores do novo luxo, investigando os clientes da marca Nespresso, suas definições do valor da marca e do conceito de luxo. Para isso, foi feita uma descrição do caso Nespresso, baseada em pesquisa documental e uma pesquisa qualitativa, baseada em entrevistas em profundidade, junto a consumidores da marca. Os resultados trazem uma análise comparativa entre os valores associados à marca Nespresso e os associados ao conceito de luxo. Do ponto de vista mercadológico, eles podem contribuir para a gestão da Nespresso e de outras marcas inseridas no movimento masstige; em termos teóricos, eles trazem algumas reflexões sobre o significado do luxo e suas relações com as ofertas das empresas voltadas para esse setor. / [en] Over the last two decades the luxury market has undergone a major transformation. In particular, we have witnessed the emergence of a so-called new luxury market by the authors. This new market comprises the masstige movement, which designates the initiatives taken by some mass production companies to try to reach demanding high-income customers by offering them more sophisticated products (COSTA, 2008). This is a promising market in terms of profitability, and is also a very challenging. It seeks to combine the characteristics of luxury brands and products with mass production, which is unusual in the luxury market. The new luxury requires a strong understanding of customers’ behavior and their purchase motivations (SILVERSTEIN e FISKE, 2003). An analysis of the strategy adopted by the Nespresso brand, launched by Nestlé in 1976, which is well-positioned in the luxury market and representative of the masstige trend, is carried out in the present research. Its main purpose is to shed light on the perceptions and motivations of ‘new luxury’ consumers, by investigating customers of the Nespresso brand, their definitions of brand value and their concept of luxury. Thus, a description of the Nespresso case based on documental research, and a qualitative research based on in-depth interviews with brand consumers were carried out. The results present a comparative analysis between the values associated to the Nespresso brand and those associated to the concept of luxury. From the market view, they can contribute to Nespresso management as well as to the management of other brands inserted in the masstige movement. From a theoretical view, they bring insights on the meaning of luxury and its relationships with the offers of the companies in this segment.

A presente dissertação aborda o comportamento do consumidor em um segmento de mercado que vem se destacando ao longo das últimas décadas: o dos produtos de luxo. Levando em consideração a importância dos sentimentos para o entendimento do comportamento do consumidor e tendo em vista que até o presente momento poucos estudos em consumo de luxo se dedicaram exclusivamente a este assunto, o objetivo desta dissertação foi o de compreender as consequências do consumo de luxo para as consumidoras, com foco nos sentimentos despertados pelo consumo. Como método de pesquisa, optou-se pela realização de um estudo exploratório, que valeu-se da utilização de entrevistas em profundidade combinadas com a técnica de autodriving, através da suscitação por fotos e objetos. Foram entrevistadas 22 consumidoras de produtos de luxo com idades entre 22 e 60 anos. O foco das entrevistas recaiu sobre as seguintes categorias de artigos de luxo: joalheria, vestuário, acessórios, perfumaria e cosméticos. Nas entrevistas, foram identificados 111 diferentes tipos de sentimentos resultantes do consumo de luxo, que foram posteriormente agrupados em 10 categorias: sentimentos relativos ao prazer, sentimentos relativos ao afeto, sentimentos relativos à distinção, sentimentos relativos à beleza, sentimentos relativos ao desejo, sentimentos relativos à realização pessoal, sentimentos relativos à segurança, sentimentos relativos à estima dos outros, sentimentos contraditórios e sentimentos relativos à falta deste tipo de produto. Foram também identificados 4 aspectos do consumo de luxo relacionados aos sentimentos encontrados: os rituais de consumo e culto aos objetos, a associação do consumo de luxo com sair da rotina e entrar em um “outro mundo”, a valorização da tradição e da história das marcas e a passagem dos objetos entre gerações. / This thesis addresses the consumer behavior in a market segment that has been outstanding over the last few decades: that one related to luxury goods. Taking into account the importance of feelings in understanding consumer behavior, and considering that until now few studies on luxury consumption were dedicated exclusively to this subject, the purpose of this thesis was to understand the consequences of luxury consumption for the consumers, focusing on the feelings aroused by consumption. As a research method, it was decided to carry out an exploratory study, which employed the use of in-depth interviews combined with autodriving technique, through photos and objects elicitation. 22 consumers of luxury products with ages between 22 and 60 years were interviewed. The focus of the interviews fell on the following categories of luxury goods: jewelry, clothing, accessories, perfumery and cosmetics. In the interviews, 111 different kinds of feelings were identified as resulting from the consumption of luxury goods, which were then grouped into 10 categories: feelings related to pleasure, feelings related to affection, feelings related to distinction, feelings related to beauty, feelings related to desire, feelings related to personal fulfillment, feelings related to safety, feelings related to the esteem of others, contradictory feelings and feelings related to the lack of these goods. 4 aspects of luxury consumption related to these feelings were also identified: consumption rituals and objects worship, the association of luxury consumption with getting out of routine and going into "another world", the appreciation of brands’ tradition and history, and the inheritance of objects across generations.

The topic of the project has been about the future of luxury mobility and how the brand Rolls-Royce could evolve alongthe technological advancements until the year 2038. As luxury is changing from being about possession to the experience of luxury, the goal was to design a vehicle that could support both new internal and external experiences about the vehicle. The identified obstacle that could limit the scope of new experi- ences in an autonomous vehicle is motion sickness. As cities grow and technology develops the future cities are crowded so personal space, and privacy is being limited.During the process, the tools used varied from form explora- tion through sketching, concept principle testing and finalization in 3d software as well as visualization tools to communicate the proposed solutions. Working out of the Rolls-Royce designstudio provided brand insight but also expertise in the field of color & materials as well as advice on engineering solutions from the design team.The result Rolls-Royce Luxe Nomad is a vehicle for exploring the world outside the urban areas. Going far and beyond in search of new and unique experiences but also making the trip there as enjoyable as possible. The concept provides a solution inspired by high-speed trains that could limit those effects. Through understanding the future customers need of privacy a method of controlling the amount of insight was developed to enhance the user experience and giving them an increased sense of control of their space.
