claims: ql.syn.old-money
Is any interface convention documented?OpenThe subject is dress and goods (with a critic-documented spread to interiors); elevation, radius, borders and interactive furniture exist only in the screen translation, which the approved scope says is Aesthetary's. Searches for design-press, museum or scholarly treatment of quiet-luxury interfaces found only agency and vendor blogs, which cannot be sole support.
Is any motion convention documented?OpenSearched fashion press (Vogue US and UK, W, Euronews), marketing scholarship (Han, Nunes and Drèze via AMA) and design press (Architizer, Dezeen, which refused scripted access) for any statement about movement, drape or animation: none addresses it. Only the wave-1 vendor web-design page mentions interaction. No lawful basis for a motion rule.
Identity and date of the original S1–S3OpenNo title, URL or author is recorded. The claims were traced to Vogue 2023 (S2 here) and Wikipedia, but the originals cannot be confirmed.
Heritage comparison and Old Money comparisonOpenHeritage research is a separate record. Wikipedia defines 'old money' narrowly (inherited wealth over two generations), but no source frames the Heritage/Quiet Luxury distinction. Left as our reading.
Any independent (non-vendor) source for quiet luxury in graphic or screen designOpenSearches of design press found only agencies, templates and blogs. The screen register stays Aesthetary's translation.
Heritage, the comparison point here, is only partly sourced so far (two research findings).Open—

The Heritage comparison is checked against the Heritage record, which has not itself been independently researched.ResolvedFidelity/QA (2026-09-29): the Knowledge Completion Campaign reached the Heritage record, so 'not itself independently researched' no longer holds; the narrower gap is carried by heritage-record-thin.
