Beyond the Rack

There’s a huge growing trend in luxury e-tailing: RueLaLa, Gilt Groupe, HauteLook, and Beyond the Rack just to name a few. Luxury brands pride themselves on creating an amazing shopping experience and I find it interesting that these e-tailers have created a shopping “experience” of their own in the virtual world. There’s a great article in the NYTimes by Rob Walker and another article from the Economist.
