Last night we headed over to the Waldorf-Astoria in New York to attend an event celebrating 85 years of New Yorker covers. We love New Yorker covers so we were perfectly happy enjoying the blow-up prints placed throughout the Hilton ballroom. But after mingling for a little while, we were surprised with another reason for the night’s soiree, the introduction of the Waldorf-Astoria Luxury Manifesto. Fortunately for all of us, it is much easier to understand than the woeful Thompson Manifesto. Explained by John Vanderslice, who is in charge of Hilton’s two luxury brands–Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts and Conrad Hotels & Resorts–the Luxury Manifesto will be a “living, breathing initiative” in which Vanderslice will go around asking other luxury brands how they stay relevant and what luxury means in the ever-changing world today. – From Hotel Chatter
