Christina Binkley

Binkley is a Pulitzer-winning writer whose work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal and The New Yorker as well as Robb Report. Of Louis Vuitton’s Objets Nomades furniture collection, the subject of her piece “Louis Vuitton’s Objets of Desire” (p. 200), she says: “It’s an example of a broader move among luxury companies to return to making rare and difficult-to-obtain objects. This is a shift from several decades of commercializing luxury in order to make it more attainable. Now these companies want to sell logo wallets to the masses and $20,000 folding chairs to the few.”
