Randy C. Sheltonさん Luxury will always have a future both as Consumable Goods and as a way of explaining an unnecessary way of being that makes a person's life just a little happier, or maybe even a lot happier. Luxury must spark an emotional response in its consumer. I feel that, if the thing of Luxury has no emotional affect on the pe...rson consuming it, then it cannot be considered a Luxury. Luxury of the future will be much the same as it has been in the past. It will be available to everyone on some level. Every person considers something within their financial means to be Luxurious and more often than not, a person will even spend beyond their financial means to obtain it.
Madhu King Cobra Panickerさん Items of Luxury are replaceable. An item might be popular and considered luxurious now. But after a while it could be considered a commo item after the demanddrops & evrybody posses the item.

Gavin Kewleyさん Are luxuries are the things we cannot take for granted and yet hold dear... experiences, material and spiritual, that in essence are quality of life affirming?
Adam Ronichさん The qualities of luxury (indulgence, craftsmanship and rare experiences) will always exist. However, these qualities are dependent on context, so as the world changes so will the definition of luxury.
Chrisさん Yes, luxury forms a double helix with wealth, and wealth will always exist. In the future extreme forms of luxury include space travel, brain implants, and super-computer driven entertainment experiences.
Lorena Manolicaさん Drinking water -- a tiny difference between commodity and luxury.
Jonas Holl-Epsteinさん Won't luxury continue to mean enjoyment of something exclusive to a minority? Only the thing which is exclusive will change. What will it be? Water, health care, exception from the draft?
Daniel Eggerさん Also disconnected from the material element luxury will always exist in a form and other in our social system; luxury of time, relationship, reflection, knowledge and experiences could be new premises that we search. Our social system defines and catalyzes luxury, to create individualization and a perceivable social hi...erarchy. Also when materialism is negatively perceived by the peer in the near future, luxury as argument for social differentiation will still survive for a long time as each of us is fertilizing it.

It's interesting that so many people regard freedom as a form of luxury. Even Karl Lagerfeld says so... (at 6'30")

Joshua Aaron Murphyさん Luxury will be fleeting, much like time. Instead, people will begin to see that money and material wealth can disappear in the blink of an eye. The new luxury will be based on innovation, how can we make life more effcient and better, & improve the well-being of society @ the same time!
Kim Cupelliさん It will be about true artisan craftmanship... and it will be worn yet cool and exist for years -- something that your kids WANT you to hand down because it is that special...
Roberta Dias Camposさん Luxury will be to have free time, will be to have drinking water.
Myrさん
As for material, luxury equals to vanity...It will always exist!!
Luxury of the future will be the capability of being our own master, able to enjoy our life away from any influence or passion that can restrict our liberty...
