What is a Luxury Brand?
The technical term of a brand is any term, design, name, logo or the likes that differentiates the products of a particular seller from the products of another one. While this might suffice as the definition of a brand in commercial studies, in the social world it does not hold much weight. In the latter world, a brand is how we perceive an organization, an individual or a product. It is a relationship that we have with the objects that we use. Branding of a product gives it a personality and that is what allows us to build this unique relationship.

Characteristics of a Luxury Brand
Ask people what they think is a luxury brand and they would reply that it is a name whose products are expensive. But that’s like describing the whole country with one sentence! A brand is much more than price. It involves quality, aesthetics and much more. Let us understand more about brands through the following characteristics.
- High price of goods
This is the first thing that comes to people’s mind when brands are mentioned. Not all expensive products are branded but all branded products are expensive. This is because of the rare and expensive materials they use to maintain quality of the product. Consequently they need highly skilled craftsmen to handle such rare materials and make unique designs. Such skilled craftsmen come at high remunerations. Expensiveness also is a quality of branded products. This adds to the aesthetics of the brand and people start to associate the product with class and high standards. It was not long ago that societies across the world were divided into classes. These classes were basically differentiated based on finances; the more money you had the higher your class was. The upper classes prevented the lower ones from using what they used, living their lifestyles by making the products quite expensive. Thus, products used by the elites got a hefty price tag along with being tantamount to high class and standards. - High quality craftsmanship
There is one thing that everybody can be as sure as the sun coming up is that branded products do not compromise on quality. There is no concession on standards, craftsmanship and materials. Only the best goes towards making a branded product. The quality is not a one time show but consistent. Sometimes, the efforts to maintain this quality reach high levels of eccentricity. Example wineries that produce quality and branded wine might discard a whole year’s production if they happen to find that the wine produced is not up to their standards due to some reason. People might cry foul, call it wastage but in the world of brands, this is a necessary step to ensure the maximum and unparalleled quality of their produce. - High in aesthetic values
Luxury or branded products are highly aesthetic and pleasing to the senses. The product’s make and look are such that it makes it pleasurable to own it. You will know for sure how branded products have a distinct look. They look rich, sophisticated and exudes a sense of status and power. We all love to feel in this way and if a product can make us feel so, we will definitely want to own it. Sometimes luxury products go up for bidding. Imagine yourself in one such bid and you put in the highest bid for a product. No other person can afford it. Only you can. How immensely does it increase the abstract value of the product? How pleasurable must you feel upon being one of the few owners of that piece? - Serve more than just utilitarian purpose
Most of the products meant for the masses have high value of functionality but when it comes to branded products, the value transcends into the domain of abstract benefits. Not only do you get utility from a branded product but also benefits that cannot be adjudged physically. These benefits are usually related to human values and lifestyles. Our psychology is such that we want everything associated with us to express our personality, tastes, state of mind and preferences. That’s why we have beautifully designed, shaped and coloured objects. These stated characteristics do not contribute to the utility of the object but goes a long way in making them suit a particular personality.

Be clear about your purpose of buying branded
Not all branded products spell quality and many of even the top labels have lower grade products that all said and done, are only a way to flaunt the brand logo. If you're looking for a quality bag that will last years, do not limit yourself to the big labels and look around and do your research. The more visibility a brand enjoys, the more likely its products have been extensively reviewed. Many a time a little known brand will have a far superior product, and then take a call on just how much you want that coveted logo.
