“…Luxury, compared with non‐luxury, is synonymous with superior quality, uniqueness and going beyond need; it is uncompromisingly extravagant in terms of effort and material. It often exhibits craftsmanship and expertise, and it is enduring (Atwal and Williams ; Berry ; Heine and Berghaus ; Kapferer and Bastien ; Poelina and Nordensvard ). In some sectors, such as luxury food, refinement in texture, taste or quality is expected (van der Veen 2010).…”

Sustainability has become a pervasive issue for the luxury sector, gaining traction with brand managers, scholars, policy‐makers, the media, and academia. The purpose of this paper is to examine the state of sustainable luxury research in marketing and consumer behaviour by critically reviewing and synthesizing the growing but fragmented body of scholarly work on sustainable‐luxury marketing. The paper critically assesses where, how and by whom research on sustainable luxury is being conducted, and it identifies gaps for future investigation. The paper reviews research published between 2007 and 2018 within major peer‐reviewed English‐language scholarly publications in business, marketing, ethics, fashion, food and tourism journals. The research is identified using the keywords sustainable luxury, green luxury, eco‐luxury and organic luxury. Three core themes emerge from this review: (1) consumer concerns and practices; (2) organizational concerns and practices; and (3) international and cross‐cultural issues. The review confirms that research on sustainable luxury is significantly underdeveloped. This paper provides the first critical and comprehensive assessment and categorization of the emergent literature streams on sustainable luxury. The authors argue for a broader, deeper and more critical research agenda on the relationship between sustainability and luxury. Potential avenues for future research on sustainable luxury are proposed, with calls for theoretical and cross‐cultural reflections that tackle broader systemic and institutional issues within the field.

“…Paradoxically, the concept of premium tourism is associated with the concept of luxury where visitors are willing to pay to enjoy a unique tourist experience. Premium tourism according to Poelina and Nordensvard [4] is defined as a tourist destination that meets the elements of high quality, hedonism, high prices, uniqueness, personal service, exclusive character, and high creativity. Premium tourism on the one hand provides a lot more value compared to nonpremium tourism but on the other hand demands tourists to pay higher.…”

This study aims at investigating the antecedents of willingness to pay for premium price in tourism context. The object of the study is Labuan Bajo, a well-known tourist destination in Indonesia which is targeted as a premium class destination by the government. Data were collected through a self-administered survey and analysed with quantitative approach. Findings reveal that willingness to pay premium is influenced by interdependent trait indirectly through ecotourism attitude. This result discloses the role of personality differences in affecting willingness to pay premium tourism. Theoretical and practical contributions of the present study were discussed.

“…Backpackers convincingly supplemented the styles of travel with new material, behavioural and symbolic values, and in this transformation new forms of conspicuousness emerged (Canavan, 2018; Sørensen, 2003). Another driving force for discarding the ideas of ostentatious consumption is a stronger focus on and awareness of the side effects of consumption that do not benefit the population at the destination, or forms of tourism that adversely affect natural environments or over-utilize scarce resources (Poelina and Nordensvard, 2018). Most recently, the overcrowding of tourists in high-profile (and expensive) destinations has raised local protests, and visitors may well not receive a wholehearted welcome if they choose to holiday there (Seraphin et al, 2018).…”

Conspicuous non-consumption in tourism: Non-innovation or the innovation of nothing?

Referring to current phenomena and consumer behaviour in tourism, this article develops the concept of conspicuous non-consumption. It addresses the deliberate avoidance of (over)spending during holidays and states that this behaviour may be just as conspicuous and provide social signals that are just as strong as those connected to the consumption of expensive luxury goods. The conceptual development is based on a combination of the two dichotomies of ‘consumption versus non-consumption’ and ‘conspicuous versus inconspicuous’, resulting in four conceptually distinctive categories of behaviour: conspicuous consumption, conspicuous non-consumption, inconspicuous non-consumption and conspicuous non-consumption. The latter, conspicuous non-consumption, is of special interest in this article, exemplified through personal vignettes. Explorative readings of travel blogs lead to the identification of five themes that characterize conspicuous non-consumption in tourism: ‘identity building’, ‘recycling, upcycling and repurposing’, ‘spiritualizing’, ‘retreating and detoxing’ and ‘slowing down’. Usually, tourism innovation policies are characterized by a ritual growth compulsion, and do not celebrate non-consumption, which is found to be synonymous with non-innovation. This is a paradox for the timely modernizing of tourist services and destinations. Increasingly, there is a need to reorient innovation and to give consideration to how the innovation of ‘nothing’ can also undergo a distinctive progression and even contribute positively to tourism economies. This article highlights the entry points for innovation at the tourism business and destination levels.
