Luxury and extravagance are signs of success in this society from "summary" of Primates of Park Avenue by Wednesday Martin
In this rarefied world of private schools, designer handbags, and exclusive clubs, it is not enough to simply be successful. One must also look successful. The women of Park Avenue understand this implicitly. They know that luxury and extravagance are not just accessories; they are essential markers of status and achievement. From the sleek lines of a Hermes Birkin bag to the red soles of a pair of Christian Louboutin heels, every detail of their appearance is meticulously curated to project an image of wealth and success. This obsession with material wealth is not just about keeping up with the Joneses; it is about establishing oneself as a member of the elite.

The women of Park Avenue understand that in order to be taken seriously in their social circles, they must be seen wearing the right brands, driving the right cars, and living in the right neighborhood.
Luxury and extravagance are not just indulgences for these women; they are tools of social mobility. By surrounding themselves with opulence, they signal to others that they have achieved a level of success that few can attain.
