Literary notes about clientele (AI summary)

In literature, the word "clientele" is often imbued with nuances of exclusivity and sophistication, suggesting not merely a group of customers but a distinct set of individuals characterized by refined taste. For example, in Emily Post's "Etiquette" [1], the term is employed to describe the young and smart patrons of a Parisian jeweler who have contributed to the brand's vogue in New York, thereby linking the concept of clientele to both cultural influence and social prestige.
  1. A jeweler from Paris has been responsible for their present vogue in New York, and his clientele is only among the young and smart.
    — from Etiquette by Emily Post
