This study aims to identify and understand the consumption and the meanings of luxury associated with the VillageMall shopping based on the discourse of women consumers of the enterprise. Eight women over the age of 30, residents of Barra da Tijuca and who frequently consume luxury products and services were interviewed to meet the research objectives. It was asked what these informants think about luxury, its association with Barra s neighborhood and how consumption practices at VillageMall differ from others in the city of Rio de Janeiro. We started from the understanding that consumption is a phenomenon that creates meanings in culture through the possession, use and exchange of goods and, from that, it constitutes an important classification system, capable of creating walls and bridges. Therefore, the research highlights approaches that attest to diferences between market and cultural logics about the notion of luxury. Thus, there is a need to relativize luxury in different cultural contexts. Even so, this research will be based on theoretical perspectives proposed by Veblen (1965 [1899]), Simmel (2008 [1905]), Rocha (2010), Lipovetsky and Roux (2005) and Rocha, Frid and Corbo (2016, 2016b).
