Condé Nast International will hold “The Nature of Luxury” conference in Cape Town in 2019

Describing the choice of destination, Suzy Menkes commented: “‘The Nature of Luxury’ shows Condé Nast International, once again, as the absolute leader in global seminars for the luxury and fashion industry. Taking the annual Luxury Conference to South Africa is not only a bold gesture but also a statement of support of the entire continent’s current growth. Its subject also embraces a changing perception of what luxury stands for: craft, handwork, nature and nurture in an ever-changing landscape. I hope that our attendees will enjoy discovering the nature of luxury with me, and the importance of this industry to Africa.”
