Olga Louisa Kastner – författare

Increasingly, luxury brands join forces with the arts today. Yet, these cross-over collaborations do not constitute a homogeneous strategy, but become manifest in manifold forms and appearances. Regardless of their growing practical relevance for the creation of contemporary luxury brands though, the varied forms of Luxury Brand-Art Collaborations (LBACs) have remained largely unexplored to date. Olga Louisa Kastner aims at systematizing the dominating collaborative patterns between luxury brands and the arts. She empirically derives distinct types of LBACs, based on methodically developed attributes and a large number of real cases. Finally, the author describes the main characteristics of the identified types and illustrates them by prototypical cases.

Olga Louisa Kastner leitet aus der Pop-up-Retail-Literatur und empirischen Studien aus verwandten Forschungsbereichen Erfolgsfaktoren von Pop-up Stores ab, zeigt Erfolgsdimensionen auf und entwickelt ein hierarchisches Erfolgsfaktorenmodell. Die Konsistenz des Modells überprüft sie mithilfe von zwei Fallstudien aus der internationalen Bekleidungsindustrie explorativ. Diese Vorgehensweise belegt die Eignung des Modells hinsichtlich seiner praktischen Anwendung und demonstriert sein technologisches Potenzial, indem es Markenverantwortlichen konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen in der strategischen Planung, operativen Ausführung und nachgelagerten Erfolgsauswertung liefert.
