European shares gain on renewable energy, luxury boost
By Sukriti Gupta, Sanchayaita Roy and Shashwat Chauhan (Reuters) -European shares ended higher on Wednesday, led by renewable-energy stocks after a revised budget bill in the United States passed a crucial vote, while focus was on any trade deals ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump's July 9 tariff deadline. The pan-European STOXX 600 index closed 0.2% higher. French equities were among the top gainers in the region with a 1% jump. Paris-listed shares of luxury giant LVMH, Italy's Moncler and UK's Burberry all climbed about 4% each, among the top boosts on the STOXX 600. Swiss bank UBS lifted its rating on European luxury to "benchmark" from "underweight," arguing the recent share underperformance has created a tactical opportunity despite ongoing risks in China. Mining-related stocks topped the STOXX sub-sectors, with steelmakers including ArcelorMittal and Thyssenkrupp advancing the most. Auto stocks climbed 1.6%, while euro zone banks added 1.5%. Shares in European renewable energy companies rose after the U.S. Senate passed a revised budget bill that was more positive for the wind industry compared to an earlier version. "This policy shift, coupled with the resumption of construction work on Equinor's Empire Wind project off the New York coast, suggests that the worst-case scenario for the renewables sector under the Trump administration may not materialise," said Tancrede Fulop, senior equity analyst at Morningstar. Vestas advanced 10.1% and was the top gainer in the STOXX 600. Orsted gained 1.8%. On the downside, a slate of UK-listed companies were at the bottom of the STOXX 600, while the local midcap index, which is more sensitive to domestic developments, dropped 1.3%. The pound, along with British stocks and bonds dropped after a tearful appearance by Chancellor Rachel Reeves in parliament a day after the government backed down on its welfare reforms reigniting concern over Britain's finances. In the latest on global trade negotiations, Trump said the United States has struck a trade deal with Vietnam. Trump on Tuesday had said he was not considering an extension of the July 9 deadline for countries to negotiate trade deals with the United States. Meanwhile, the European Union's trade chief is expected to hold negotiations this week in Washington to avert higher U.S. tariffs. Back in stocks, Greggs slid 15.2% after the British baker warned its annual operating profit could dip below last year's levels. Spain's Banco Sabadell gained 5.2% after Santander said it had reached an agreement to buy its British unit TSB. Sign in to access your portfolio

London's Luxury Property Downturn Looks Set to Get Even Worse
When two Chinese investors bought a majority stake in a development dubbed 'Mayfair's most exclusive address' in 2015, London's housing market was booming. Almost 10 years and an insolvency later, half the apartments have yet to be sold. The travails of 60 Curzon are emblematic of what's been a miserable period for the city's prime property market, with prices down more than 20% from their peak. The downtrend is now being supercharged by the recent removal of a tax perk for so-called non-doms and an exodus of wealthy. For realtors, that's further thinning out the rolodexes of deep-pocketed clients on whom the luxury market has long depended.

Hervé Léger Resort 2026 Collection
The word of the season for Hervé Léger's Michelle Ochs: allure. And her motto? 'Give her a reason to shop.' Ochs and her fellow designers have the Herculean task of inspiring a consumer that, as has been widely reported by industry trades, is becoming less interested in engaging with the luxury market. But she seems to be taking the new status quo in stride, you could say she's actually having some fun imbuing novelty into this decades-old label. (Hervé Legér turns 40 this year.) Resort, which covers the holiday season, is crucial for a label like Léger with a proven track record in event dressing. Ochs reports that they've 'gained traction' with the introduction of woven styles as complements to the brand's famous bodycon knits. Her loosening of other silhouettes has also helped her push things forward. There were other novelties, too. A venture into the Léger archives inspired the return of a basketweave technique; Ochs has placed it under the bust for an elegant and flattering effect. Another archive find is the stretch lace that Ochs used on slimming frocks. Also fun—and a good reason to shop—are a spray metallic ombré treatment Ochs has developed to imitate the brand's signature bandage effect without the actual layering, and a grommet-like foiling on a few separates that reads like both the actual hardware and a cooler version of a polka dot. Ochs has also been working on introducing leather, as on a sexy midi-length red slip, and on playing up transparency with mesh inserts. She's even venturing into tailoring. These have all been welcome introductions, which she reports her customer has been receptive to. Yet most impactful is what she's done to the bandage dress itself. Making it sometimes longer and occasionally looser, angling it or deconstructing it, she's embraced the icon without letting it dictate too much of her output. 'People are loving the variation in lengths we've been giving,' said Ochs. 'We're educating her that it's not just tight mini dresses!'

Leading brands are actively exploring innovative and eco-friendly alternatives to reduce carbon footprints and contribute to a greener future. For example, LVMH aims to significantly cut its carbon emissions by 2026 through extensive R&D in sustainable raw and recycled materials. Moreover, the growing beauty and cosmetic industry in countries such as China, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia is boosting the personal luxury goods market. In 2024, the beauty & perfume segment in the APAC region is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.87%. Consumers are increasingly seeking personalized and customized luxury products that reflect their identities, like Louis Vuitton's hot-stamped or hand-painted handbags. With the rising adoption of personal luxury goods, key players are transforming their offerings through R&D. In 2024, Lavie Luxe introduced a new perfume line featuring LUSH, LILY, LAGOON, and LOVE, each with 18% fragrance concentration. Additionally, brands are expanding in emerging markets. Hermes, for instance, opened new flagship stores in key Chinese cities like Shanghai and Beijing, further supporting global market growth. Sustainable Luxury on the Rise: Brands Respond to Growing Consumer Demand Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor in the personal luxury goods market, The personal luxury goods market is undergoing a powerful shift, as sustainability becomes a central focus for both brands and consumers. With growing awareness around the environmental and ethical impacts of their purchases, today's consumers are seeking luxury products that reflect their values, driving unprecedented demand for sustainable materials and responsible practices. Leading the way are luxury brands that are reimagining their product lines through the lens of sustainability and circular design. Consumers are showing increased interest in luxury goods made from eco-conscious materials like organic cotton, recycled polyester, bamboo, and even regenerated fabrics. Gucci, for example, was a pioneer in adopting ECONYL®, a 100% recycled nylon crafted from fishing nets, textile scraps, and carpet fibers within its ready-to-wear collections. Beyond materials, ethical sourcing and positive social impact are becoming equally important to luxury consumers. In 2023, Prada's Re-Nylon initiative set a benchmark in ethical fashion by converting ocean plastic waste into regenerated nylon, while also pledging 1% of its Re-Nylon revenue to the SEA BEYOND project—an ocean conservation and education initiative. As brands continue to align with circular economy principles and transparency, the personal luxury goods market is expected to experience sustained growth, reshaping the future of fashion through sustainability and innovation. Recent developments In 2025, Hermes launched the Rouge Hermes Silky Lipstick Shine, a luxurious lipstick inspired by the brand's iconic silk scarves. Priced at 63 euro, the lipstick features a refillable design, magnetic closure, and a glossy, hydrating finish. It has quickly become a coveted beauty item, embodying Hermes commitment to craftsmanship and elegance. In 2024, Dolce & Gabbana ventured into pet luxury by introducing Fefe which is a perfume designed specifically for dogs. It is a alcohol-free fragrance certified under the Italian Bureau Veritas Safe Pet Cosmetics specifications.

As per the U.S. Census Bureau, retail e-commerce sales in Q3 2024 reached an estimated $300.1 billion, up 2.6% from the previous quarter, showcasing steady momentum in online the widespread use of smartphones and faster internet, consumers now enjoy easier access to luxury goods through digital platforms. To keep up with shifting consumer behaviors, luxury brands are prioritizing online presence and customer engagement. A notable example is Gucci, which revamped its e-commerce site in 2024 for the first time in over a decade, signaling a renewed focus on digital innovation. Similarly, Dior emerged as the most sought-after luxury brand online in 2023, thanks to its strategic investments in e-commerce, social media, and digital marketing, particularly boosting visibility and sales in key markets like the U.S. and China. Adding to this digital transformation, luxury retailers are integrating cutting-edge technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) to elevate the customer experience. Timeless Luxury: Watches & Jewellery Power Expansion Across Global Markets The watches and jewellery segment remains the leading force in the global personal luxury goods market, supported by a strong tradition of craftsmanship and growing consumer interest in luxury timepieces and fine jewellery.

Cultural factors also contribute to growth, especially in countries like India, where gold plays an important role in weddings, festivals, and religious customs.
