The following is excerpted from the applicant's response to question #18:

Applications will be reviewed by a selection committee drawn from representatives of recognized luxury brands. Admission to the domain will be open to those companies approved by the selection committee.

We specifically examined more restrictive registration policies, such as limiting registration to members of organizations with a specific tie to luxury.  For .LUXE, we believe that such limitations are justified and appropriate, because vendors of luxury goods and services define themselves as being uncommon, and exclusive.
