The Reluxury show, dedicated to sustainable luxury, is being held this year at the Carrousel du Louvre. This event stands out for its commitment to ethical and sustainable fashion, where luxury brands adopt environmentally friendly practices.
In partnership with Barnes Real EstateReluxury highlights values such as sustainability and reuse, aiming to integrate an ethical dimension into the world of luxury.
Ethics and sustainability at the heart of Reluxury
Reluxury focuses on “slow fashion”, a concept that values the quality and durability of pieces rather than their quantity. Exhibitors offer second-hand luxury clothing, jewelry and accessories. This model aims to reduce the industry's carbon footprint by limiting the production of new parts and extending the life of existing products. Barnes Immobilier, a player committed to responsible luxury, supports this initiative which is part of a sustainable fashion and living approach.
Reluxury demonstrates the growing importance of vintage in the industry. By offering quality pieces that cross fashions, the show promotes vintage as an eco-responsible alternative. Barnes shares this vision and applies this principle in the selection of its real estate. Barnes offers prestigious residences that combine history and modernity. Vintage thus becomes a symbol of sustainability, attracting more and more lovers of luxury and authenticity.
Invested brands
Major brands in the luxury sector are following this trend by introducing services dedicated to vintage. For example, Weston Vintage offers a collection of vintage shoes, restored to their original shine. This concept encourages a responsible consumption cycle. And it promotes respect for resources by bringing iconic objects back to life. Other initiatives follow this movement. The Ritz recycles its broken tableware by partnering with La Fabrique Nomade, a craft workshop, to create unique jewelry. These actions show that sustainability affects many areas of luxury today, from fashion to hospitality.
Reluxury exhibitors don't just sell second-hand pieces: they present creations that embody the elegance of sustainable luxury and captivate with their rarity and history.
Towards a future of sustainable luxury
The rise in popularity of vintage demonstrates that sustainability is a rising value in the luxury industry. By choosing products with a proven track record, consumers help reduce environmental impact. Reluxury, by bringing together brands sharing this philosophy, shows that it is possible to combine luxury and responsibility. This show invites fashion lovers to reimagine luxury for a more sustainable future.
