About LuxeTrope

LuxeTrope, India’s only luxury intelligence print and digital magazine, has been created to underline what makes luxury tick, and to bring together all the elements that define luxury. Deeply rooted in the belief that luxury goes beyond the price tag, it is our endeavour to showcase the intrinsic workings of the luxury market and purveyors of quality and bespoke lifestyles. LuxeTrope will delve into the industry with incisive commentary, facts, figures and analyses that highlight how the market is evolving, and the people, brands and products that are reshaping the landscape of luxury. The first issue of LuxeTrope was a collectors’ edition Art Market special, beautifully produced and created to be a coffee table magazine. It was launched in April 2026 and was a runaway success.
