Introduction  \nIn light of a growing interest in the use of social media marketing (SMM) among luxury fashion brands, this study set out to identify attributes of SMM activities and examine the relationships among those perceived activities, value equity, relationship equity, brand equity, customer equity, and purchase intention through a structural equation model. Five constructs of perceived SSM activities of luxury fashion brands are entertainment, interaction, trendiness, customization, and word of mouth. Their effects on value equity, relationship equity, and brand equity are signiﬁcantly positive. For the relationship between customer equity drivers and customer equity, brand equity has signiﬁcant negative effect on customer equity while value equity and relationship equity show no signiﬁcant effect. As for purchase intention, value equity and relationship equity had signiﬁcant positive effects, while relationship equity had no signiﬁcant inﬂuence. Finally, the relationship between purchase intention and customer equity has signiﬁcance. The ﬁndings of this study can enable luxury brands to forecast the future purchasing behavior of their customers more accurately and provide a guide to managing their assets and marketing activities as well.  \n© 2011 Elsevier Inc.

Luxury market is a high value-added industry basing on high brand assets. Due to the increased demand for luxury in emerging markets such as China, India, and the Middle East, opportunities abound to expand the business more than ever. In the past, luxury fashion brands could rely on strong brand assets and secure regular customers. However, the recent entrance of numerous fashion brands into the luxury market, followed by heated competition, signals unforeseen changes in the market.  \nA decrease in sales related to a global economic downturn drives luxury businesses to change. Now they can no longer depend solely on their brand symbol but must focus on brand legacy, quality, esthetic value, and trustworthy customer relationships in order to succeed. A key element to luxury industry becomes providing values to customers in every way possible.  \n☆ The authors gratefully acknowledge the reading and revision suggestions by C.
