Indulgence can’t be a negative thing—unless you are obtaining it off the back of someone else. When one thinks about what is Luxe usually traditional ‘stuffy’ luxury comes to mind. I mean if it is not a luxury brand then what is the point-- right? I remember seeing one of Donald Trumps luxurious homes, and thinking if I had millions I would never put gold leaving on every square inch of my abode. I mean one wall creates a statement, a whole house is just obnoxious. After all if wealth is in the eye of the beholder, then what is considered Luxe can be in the mind of the person designing their home, or the person going shopping, or the person having their version of an extravagant meal?

This month, Jil’s definition of Luxe is synonymous with all that is fabulous to us. But more importantly we decided to share with you the artisans, who produce rich and opulent products minus the fanfare and the hoopla. We challenge you to redefine what is considered luxurious to you.
