Abstract

As millennials who are highly educated, possess adequate economic resources, and have a completely different consumption outlook from previous generations start to occupy the main luxury market, luxury brands must make certain changes to cater to the new generation of consumers so as not to be abandoned by the times and regain the market. The subject of this paper is how to transform and upgrade luxury brands to seize the market in this emerging era. This paper intends to take the brand Louis Vuitton (LV) as the primary case study object and combine case study methods with secondary data analysis to explore related issues of luxury goods transformation. Through investigation, it has been found that the LV brand presents its characteristics in terms of marketing strategy concept, product design, and selection of co-name and spokesperson with other brands. On this basis, by examining the three characteristics mentioned above, this paper summarizes the main trends of luxury brand transformation and its reasons. In research and investigation, the literature and data in relevant fields are not abundant at present, so this paper is innovative in the topic selection. Moreover, the luxury market is still in the transition stage, so this research has some frontiers and practical significance for future related research.
