You know things are getting serious in the world of luxury retail when Jennifer Lopez gets turned away at the door! Yes, you heard that right—J.Lo was recently denied entry to a Chanel store in Istanbul because it was “at full capacity.” Can you believe it? The pop icon handled the situation like a champ, simply saying “OK, no problem,” and walking away. Are we sure this wasn’t just a sales tactic?
Bethenny Frankel, no stranger to luxury shopping herself, had a few thoughts on the matter. She shared her own experience of being denied entry at a Chanel store, reminiscing about the time a guard asked her if she had an appointment. Frankel aptly pointed out that everyone, celebrity or not, deserves decent treatment. It’s about time luxury brands consider their approach to customer service—after all, wouldn’t you want a star like Lopez shopping in your store?

When will luxury brands realize their customers are people, too? What’s your take: should celebrities expect special treatment, or should shops stick to their policies regardless? Let’s hear your thoughts!
