Abstract: Advertisements are impotent for improving the reputation of a product and marketing it on foreign markets. With the development of global economy, various advertisements have been driving luxuries from the west to China. The advertisements of luxuries, the same with those of common products, should reflect unique features, functions, tastes and cultures.

On the basis of reception aesthetics, this thesis with discussions about the features and aesthetic implications of advertisements of luxuries and the consumers’ psychology, analyzes the translation strategies of advertisements of luxuries.
Key words: Luxury Advertisement, Reception Aesthetics, Culture, Translation Skills
