Luxury Brand Learns from Controversial Incident

A recent incident involving Giambattista Valli’s 2024 Spring/Summer couture collection has stirred discussion within Chinese social media circles. The controversy arose when a prominent Chinese customer, known as Lulu, accused the Italian label of lending a sample of high-end custom work, which she had already purchased, to British actress Anya Taylor-Joy at Cannes without her prior consent.

Lulu’s post on Xiaohongshu gained traction, with many expressing support for her decision to forfeit her deposit and refrain from purchasing the couture piece. Criticism was directed at Giambattista Valli’s alleged lack of respect for customers and the perceived commercialization of haute couture.

Luxury Brands Adjust Strategies to Appeal to Aspirational Consumers

In response, Lulu emphasized the unique and exclusive nature of haute couture pieces, contrasting them with what she described as Giambattista Valli’s “second-tier” approach. She cited practices of other traditional fashion houses like Valentino and Giorgio Armani Privé, which prioritize customer exclusivity and communication regarding any loaned pieces.

The incident has escalated into a public relations crisis for Giambattista Valli, exacerbated by Lulu’s significant social media following and influence within the luxury fashion community. The brand’s response, as articulated by a spokesperson, emphasized the importance of specifying exclusivity requests at the time of purchase to avoid such situations.

Despite the brand’s explanation, Lulu expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of direct communication from Giambattista Valli’s CEO, further fueling her discontent.

The fallout from this incident underscores the importance for luxury brands to prioritize customer relations, particularly with their core clientele. In China, where a small percentage of customers contribute significantly to sales, maintaining the loyalty of Very Important Customers (VICs) is crucial.

Moving forward, strategies aimed at enhancing customer loyalty and addressing grievances promptly should be a priority for luxury brands, especially in light of the potential damage to reputation in the age of social media scrutiny.
