Verdict

Luxury houses have prudently embraced Chinese shopping festivals like 618 shopping day, Double 11, and Double 12. Discerning players treat their consumers with complimentary gifts and discounts, without sacrificing their brand value. In Valentino’s case, the maison offers gifts like phone cases made by Casetify, Rockstud earrings, and canvas bags with Black Tie prints, on its e-commerce channels.

This year’s Double 11 shopping festival is more competitive than ever as it comes amid China’s challenging economic recovery. Last week, China posted 4.9 percent year-on-year GDP growth in the third quarter, according to China’s National Bureau of Statistics, beating analysts’ expectations. In particular, retail sales rose 6.8 percent YoY, which bodes well for retailers and brands. 

Two e-commerce giants, JD.com and Tmall, kicked off their promotions for this year’s Double 11 on October 23 and 24, respectively. Though luxury brands are not vocal about their discounts, participation in the shopping festivals can elevate their cultural relevance in the market and help them keep up with emerging consumer sentiment.
