Quiet Luxury: The Loudest Fashion Trend!!!

Updated: Feb 2

It’s no longer hushes and whispers. The biggest fashion trend that had been kept secret for decades is finally out! Quiet luxury is now on trend.


You may be asking “What exactly is quiet luxury?” “Do I need to get in on this trend?” “Can I afford it?” “Where should I look?” Behold, I have all the answers you seek.

What is Quiet Luxury?

Quiet luxury fashion aligns with the premise that “money talks but wealth whispers“. The lavishly rich are notorious for keeping a low profile as they move through the masses; hence the term stealth wealth. Quiet luxury fashion comprises of items made using the highest quality raw materials and impeccable craftsmanship from reputable design houses. In many cases, these items are handmade, bespoke or at the very least customizable.



Though exorbitantly priced to ensure exclusivity, quiet luxury fashion is of simple, unassuming designs with no ostentatious logos, bold prints nor highly attractive colors. The intentionality, attention to detail, ease and accuracy of fit is what distinguishes it from contemporary or fast fashion. It‘s basically if you know you know fashion, and until now only the wealthy knew. They had been using quiet luxury fashion as their symbol of wealth, nodding in approval at fellow wearers aka “wealth whispers”.


Do I need to get in on this trend?

Yes! One popular notion about wealthy people is that they make great investments and fashion is no exclusion. Everyone NEEDS to have high quality, well-fitting, functional fashion pieces in their collections. They are worthwhile investments as their longevity and versatility of wear ensure you won’t have to expend time, energy and money constantly replacing them in your wardrobe.

Can I Afford This? Most definitely! Despite the big players and super brands pricing the most simplest of items in the thousands, you can easily purchase high quality items at mid range prices or even less than $100. However, if you wish to indulge in items from the most notable quiet luxury brands, expect to pay anywhere from $500 for a simple white tank top and up to $10,000 for a plain black slip dress. Of course, you can note that these prices come with complementary services like tailoring, customization and opportunities to network beyond the realm of fashion. Yet, another reason the wealthy prefer to invest in this kind of fashion.



Where Should I Look? Quite frankly, anywhere! It really boils down to all those distinctive features as mentioned above. However, the brands most notable for outfitting the mega rich are: Brunello Cucinelli, Loro Piana, Hermes, Celine, Khaite, The Row, Bottega Venetta, Max Mara, Jil Sander, Victoria Beckham, and more.


Many other popular high end designer brands also carry select items that fulfill the tenets of quiet luxury fashion.

More affordable options that do not skimp on quality include: Brooks Brothers, Ralph Lauren, Vince, Banana Republic, L’Agence, A.L.C and others.





Finally, the most highly regarded option in quiet luxury fashion is having items designed and built just for you-the bespoke. This may be done affordably through independent small business designers who are reputable in your communities. You get to choose materials, develop designs, customize fit and still have bragging rights. Is this not luxury?
