Buying and flaunting luxury is becoming an important factor in many people's present and daily lives. After examining the factors influencing materialism and conspicuous consumption, this study examines the relationship between materialism and conspicuous consumption and continuous intention.

For the study, 276 data were collected through an online survey. 270 respondents were found to be valid. Structural equation modeling technique was used for the study, and the model was verified using the obtained data. This study used Smart PLS 4.0 and IBM SPSS version 23.0.

The primaiy objective is to explore the relationship between antecedent variables (self-esteem, public self-consciousness, fashion, demand for originality, materialism, conspicuous consumption, and continuous intention). The results of the analysis showed that self-esteem, public self-consciousness, fashion, and demands for originality had a positive effect on conspicuous consumption.
