Luxury is a word that, at least on MR PORTER, we try to reserve for special occasions. It’s all too easy to drop in, especially when talking about clothes, but defining it is rather tough. In the world we live in right now, what does luxury mean anyway?

One man who can be relied upon for a wise answer to that question is Mr Jerry Lorenzo. The mastermind creative behind Fear of God, Lorenzo has reevaluated the definition of the word and moved it into a space that feels refreshingly diverse. The clothes he makes have in many ways marked a new direction for modern aspirational dressing, but for the designer it hits on something much deeper than what we wear.

And so, as part of MR PORTER’s Hosted By series – where we invite a luminary fashion designer to give us an authentic insight into their world (and to create an exclusive capsule collection, which you can shop here) – we sat down with Lorenzo to create The Luxury Of Time, a special film that offers some wisdom on what luxury really means.

As Lorenzo here notes, authentic luxury has little to do with material possessions and much to do with the time we’re given and what we choose to do with it.
