Or the other alternative ... you need to question your own understanding of Ritz's brand and of their market. In other words, you nailed it: Luxury in the 21st century is just whoring brands and cliches to people with money, and the nouveau riche do not have developed tastes. Alas, welcome, everyone, to the future.
