Japan: luxury goods back in style
According to a recent study carried out by management consultant McKinsey, Japan’s $20 billion appears to be recovering.
Its Japan Luxury Consumer Survey showed that consumers in their twenties are buying more high-end brands. Although their spending on luxury isn't as high as other age groups, the study showed that this age group is more willing to pay full-price and is more likely to view owning luxury goods as "something special".
