Sustainable development goals reflect sustainability in multiple aspects of life from both business and consumers. In the Metaverse world, luxury brands and their consumption are working towards adopting sustainability in luxury fashion. The scholarship has stretched to multiple aspects across various themes and sectors to understand the developments in this field. It is apparent that sustainability and luxury have been the subject of scrutiny since long, but a refreshing perspective on this evolving dynamic is needed to analyze the surge in publications. This research aims to identify the existing literature in the area and gain in-depth knowledge of current trends with the help of bibliometric analysis. Further, the study aims to determine different clusters and identify the directions for future research in the sustainable luxury fashion domain.

This study responds to literature calls to investigate the different social and psychological antecedents of negative consumer emotional well-being in the context of the health crisis Covid-19. We perform a path analysis on a sample of Australian consumers during the Covid-19 lockdown. We find that social norms and word-ofmouth increase consumer fear-of-missing-out which in turn fuels panic buying behavior. Such behavior is moreover spurred by positive motivations to panic buy. By contrast, we find that consumer ability to self-regulate during Covid-19’s reduces their tendencies to succumb to panic buying. We moreover find that such self-regulation is enhanced through sustainable product consumption behavior during Covid-19. Lastly, it was found that panic buying has a negative influence on emotional well-being of consumers. Implications of our findings for theory and future research directions are provided.
