Why (and how) “Quiet Luxury“ became the biggest fashion trend right now.
Instagram / Threads / TikTok → @timdessaint
The term “quiet luxury” has exploded in popularity in the past few months. But what does it even mean? And why is this new ‘trend’ so popular today? This video is a deep-dive into everything you need to know about quiet luxury; from what is and where it came from to how you can recreate it (and whether you should even dress that way).
For those wondering, this is the polo I’m wearing in the video (different colorway since the all-white one is not in stock, but it’s the same model): c.klarna.com/al/97Sk/

One thing i have learned over time was that most expensive items from brands like Loro Piana, Zegna, Ralph Lauren are achievable and more affordable when you can source their fabrics and get a reputable tailor, more especially for suits, jacket, coats, shirts and pants. I was once lucky to find a Loro Piana 2 meter cashmere coat fabric for $350 at a fabric seller in my city, my tailor billed me $250 for labour. It came out just as i wanted it with special details, i can't afford a $4000 coat but i got a coat with the exact fabric for $600.

I think for once this “trend” is a good one to follow, if you buy a neutral tone high quality sweater for example, you can use it for the “quiet luxury” aesthetic, but when the trend falls you can still use it with almost anything you have in your wardrobe

If your goal is buying high quality, lifetime pieces, yes. But for a trend, that's a terrible idea. You don't actually even like this look, it's only a phase and a phase that will cost u a lotttt of money. You're essentially a fraud trying to look rich for the trend. Buy into quiet luxury if you really are that guy or that girl

To achieve quiet luxury is to also have a steam iron, lint roller, a tailor, signature fragrance, shoe cleaner or shinner and a good skin care, grooming regime, and quality undergarments. Also be socially conscious and invest your money in a wealth portfolio. It’s not just a fashion trend, it’s a lifestyle and it’s all in the details.

This is why it's almost impossible if you've just pennies to spend lol quality fabrics comes with a price tag. Good tailor comes with a price tag. Time pieces that don't look like cheap shits, come with a price tag. Signature fragrance probably something you can get away with. There's a reason why after "quiet" it's "luxury"... He didn't explain about where people with old money eat out, hang out.. or who they're hanging out with... Definitely not gonna be places and people that people like me, not even a nouveau riche, know and can afford. So even if i can emulate the style impeccably, even up close, nobody would think I'm an old money person 😂 They'll just think--at best--I'm prudent with my money. They'll probably think I have an old soul. But obviously not of old money. I love my best friends. They're the live of my life. But by God, they're brash and fun and loyal. They're not old money type of people because they're not. But I love them. Quiet luxury isn't something you can emulate just like that because it's systemic..

I believe the movement towards sustainability from both corporations and consumers has also contributed to the rise of quiet luxury. When you are buying less pieces with better fabric, you are reducing the quantity you put in the landfill. When the clothes do end up in the trash, they biodegrade a lot quicker than the fast fashion. So it’s a win-win that way too.

Ngl I actually feel like we’re going backwards in terms of sustainability. Ever heard of fast fashion? There are mass production of countless products. The goal of corporations is to put out as much product as fast as possible and not only that but the price has gone up and the quality has gone down. Places like Shein are guilty of this.

This reasoning has always felt hollow to me when it comes to fashion. I've seen similar things about say workwear (durable, high quality etc) only for people to leave behind their double knees and Detroit jackets when the next trend arrives. Sure you could argue that quiet luxury is more timeless, especially in an urban setting, but I'm willing to bet most of the people jumping in on the trend right now won't be wearing this stuff for the next 10 years.

The problem with this new obsession with "quiet luxury" is most people don't understand what quality even is. I've worked in luxury retail and most people come in saying "Oh this is great quality" without knowing any objective measures of quality. By trying to imitate the "old money" look with cheaper brands, you're not impressing anyone who understands high end clothing, similar to wearing a replica/fake watch (the look may be there, but the signs of quality are not). The first step is having your wardrobe made for you. Not only would you nail the fit (or at least achieve a fit superior to RTW), you have the option to express yourself in the details and not find your clothes ubiquitously draped on others. Secondly, prioritize the artisan, not the brand. You go to a shirtmaker for a shirt, a suitmaker for a suit, and a shoemaker for shoes. I see in your video that you use a lot of Ralph Lauren Purple Label and Cucinelli ads, however there are much better makers that specialize in certain garments. Not to say these brands are bad, I'm a big fan of both BC and RLPL but Cucinelli is 90% machine made and vastly overpriced (in part due to the fairer wages BC pays in Solomeo) while RLPL is made by St. Andrews & Caruso. Alternatively, you could try individual tailoring houses that specialize in their own house cut depending on your style (Eg. A Florentine cut by Liverano&Liverano or a softer Neapolitan cut by Orazio Luciano). In that similar vein, rather than getting shoes from The Row, Cucinelli, and LP like mentioned in the video, why not try world renowned bespoke shoemakers such as Yohei Fukuda, Stefano Bemer, or George Cleverley instead. The signs of quality would be the hand set collars, pick stitching and tacking done by hand, buttonholes meticulously finished by hand, the hand sewn apron on loafers with beveled waists. These are the painstakingly precise and time consuming details that cannot be replicated in cheap, mass produced garments that are indicative of heirloom quality and bespoke craftsmanship.

I got most of my quality items by thrifting. Yes handmade and bespoke items are always high quality but not affordable for most people. Thrifting is an inexpensive way to get quality items but don't set the standard too high. Machine stitch, plastic buttons are still ok, but always look for 100% natural fabric. Then try the fit, try to move your arms and legs in them. Look for fit that can still be altered.

I'll pick "sartorial" brands over "designer" ones every time. Because they are marketing through appeal to quality of construction, materials and timeless cuts, while designer brands are just appealing to luxury. It's nonsence that 50$ spier&mackay shirt will have info about what type of cotton, weave, thickness of fabric, stitching details etc etc shirt has, while giving you 3 option for fit and 3 for sleeve length. At the same time 100-200$ designer shirt will just say something like "premium cotton" and will have poorer stitch quality and construction.

Also emulating the old money people is not a good mindset, they are gatekeeping their social circle, basically live in different world. It is not affordable to not only dress like them but also participate in their expensive activities. I started to build my wardrobe following this aesthetic mostly by thrifting. I just aspire to dress like common men back in the day. Suits, ties, hat, add a bit of color and pattern. Even the current fits for quiet luxury look too bland for me, too monochromatic and no individuality. Look at the historical imagery in early to mid 20th century, you will understand the different vibe compare to today quiet luxury fits.

the rise of quiet luxury is also a social phenomenon that is worth additional thought and discussion. As Tim said in the video, quiet luxury favors neutral colors, and this favor towards mild colors actually symbolizes people's growing conservative attitudes in economics recession. This also happens back then: before the bubble broke, Japan also favor wild colors and appreciate diverse aesthetic standards, yet with economic recession. they shifted their appeal to more neutral, standard, and in-a-nutshell conservative aesthetics.

I live in the UK and remember the recession in the 1990's. At the end of it, the fashion retailer that had done the best was Gap, who had gone down the route of selling basic styles in neutral colours. I remember walking past a store once, their window was full of black and white. I thought it was really boring but I was wrong. People wanted simple, easy mix and match styles as they could not afford to make a costly mistake. I am glad to see some people are learning the value of classic styles in quality fabrics, that form the backbone of a good wardrobe. Conspicuous consumption is so out of step with the times, economically and environmentally. I am looking forward to seeing people dressing better - no athleisurewear. I have noticed a lot more women wearing simple but pretty dresses. Long may that trend continue too.

Everything really is in cycles. We keep alternating between minimalism and maximalism in response to one another, we hardly ever get periods of utilitarian fashion - which makes sense as fashion is a form of self-expression. I also however find it really funny how while it's "a form of self-expression," it follows trends meaning it's more an expression of the group mind than it is the individual.

I have never liked logos plastered everywhere it looks tacky and a cry for attention because you are not comfortable in your own skin. Over the top colour or print can also become boring fast. But with life getting busier it's just nice to keep things simpler.

Since ive gotten alot of piecies from Uniqlo my average style also leans towards the "old money" looks. They defintely have some good piecies like cable knit sweater , certain polos etc

Hey great content as usual. I notice pretty much of the “quiet luxury” pieces are geared towards temperate or colder climate. How about a video on quiet luxury for the tropics - yes, places with perpetually humid and hot climate. Hello from Singapore.

Linen and cotton are your foundation. Silk and lightweight wool if you can afford them. Always look for 100% natural fabric, more breathable than synthetics. Protect your skin from uv by covering in natural fabric. Wear wide brim hat like panama. Straw and paper hats if you can find them, no synthetics.

Quiet luxury has never been a "trend" for those into fashion, it is the norm. Trend chasrs are "discovering" something classy people have known for decades. But I agree with the notion that tailoring of cheaper clothes is MUCH MORE IMPORTANT than expensive brands that are poorly fitting.

Great video. But I think you could have gone into more detail about the differences between quiet luxury and stealth wealth. Because as far as I understand, the latter is not just a synonym for quiet luxury. It rather describes a style that can be found on crazy-rich people like Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg, that wear basic off-the-rack clothing in order to appear more down to earth and to "hide" their wealth. Whilst quiet luxury is about showing off your knowledge about the "right" brands to wear and of course your wealth, but only to those who know as well (as you pointed out in the video).

But to be honest, did you at any point, thought of buying a supreme branded anything or rather "meh" hublot watches? Any thoughts on Nike fleece? I'd say let them outcast themselves in overpriced insecurity. After all, the fact that you can recreate almost anything on the budget, sometimes even transforming it into something better or more personalized says a lot more as both a fashion statement and points for personalization for yourself.

The rise of this trend is because kids today are worried about looking rich instead of getting rich. Dressing like an old money while living with a paycheck in a one bedroom studio and driving a $40k car is super hilarious.

😂😂 hillarious how old doomers assume everything is wrong today. What about the proverty of the 1900s. Far more people are becoming rich now that that time. And didn't people always wanted to look wealthier since the industrial revoltution? Atleast now the rich folks won't humiliate the poor.

I think two significant mindsets for quiet luxury is buying for life and being tailored. When choosing quiet luxury items it's all about choosing pieces that are timeless and durable (buy it for life), so fast fashion items, although has the "look" of quiet luxury and will be against the entire thing. Another thing about it is being tailored to your body type. A lot of wealthy people, regardless of their body type, tend to have their clothes fit them well and their silhouettes. And that's mostly because most of their clothing are tailored fit for them.

Ngl I like the exact opposite of this style😅😬. I like more complex fashion. I like the artistry that goes into clothes, the patterns and textures, the colors and shapes…etc. I especially love embroidery. I don’t buy as much clothes as other people because of that. I look for the quality over the quantity. I like clothes that are interesting to look at which some people might think is excessive and flashy.

Advertising your style as quiet luxury paradoxically creates the exact opposite effect. It makes you look low class because you're signaling too much. I enjoy many fashion subgenres and varieties, but quiet luxury seems like a waste of time and money. It's just country club attire with a bit of hype behind it.

It's true that if everyone decided that a camel coat is the thing to have it would automatically be neither quiet nor luxurious. Still if you isolate the pieces on its own, a nice suit or a well made sweater has their intrinsic value (good for formal occasions, keeps you warm, probably a bit more durable) but as Tim says it would need to fit into your lifestyle as well (if you don't need a suit - and I'm not talking about a sport jacket and chinos - to go to work in then you probably wouldn't make much use of it).
