MSc Fashion, Design and Luxury Management

Now working at Christian Dior Couture in Marketing, I realize that the MSc Fashion, Design and Luxury Management program contributed to my career success in many different aspects.

From a theoretical approach, the program develops core management skills in the fields of fashion, design and luxury which equipped me with a competitive outlook, highly employable skills and flexible career options.
From a practical side, collaborating with leading industry professionals and visiting companies in the luxury, fashion and design sectors, allows us to enhance our taste and creativity in these areas and gives us a real insight into the luxury world.
Finally, the program opens the door to fulfilling internships opportunities throughout the world. I was first selected as a Retail Trainee in Dior through on-campus recruitment. The MSC FDLM program offers invaluable resources and privileged connections with leading brands in the luxury field.

While I write these words, I am just finishing the Paris Haute Couture Show works and celebrating my 2nd Anniversary working in a luxury fashion house. I love my job and this career satisfaction comes from having achieved my career goals through the MSc FDLM program.

I was clear on what I wanted: A master program that intertwined the creative and business sides of fashion and luxury management. That is exactly what I found with the MSc. Fashion, Design & Luxury Management at Grenoble École de Management.
The school offers a unique combination of international prestige with excellent academic quality, while the program offers a cross-disciplinary approach and a diverse faculty with in-depth knowledge of the industry.
In addition, the International Residency, a weeklong study trip to a fashion capital, is an amazing opportunity to learn and experience first hand about the luxury lifestyle as well as engage with professionals from top companies.
One of the most rewarding parts of my studies was learning in an international environment that enabled sharing real life experiences across cultures, an essential quality for dealing with business on an international level. The FDLM program has equipped me with the right tools to tackle the challenges of the Luxury industry.
Currently, I’m working at Parfums Christian Dior as a Forecasting Intern for Travel Retail Americas and I find myself building on the discipline and skills acquired from FDLM in order to collaborate and contribute to the company’s success.

My motto has always been “No matter how hard it seems, don’t stop until you’ve achieved your dream”. That dream is what brought me to Grenoble Ecole de Management and where I am in my career today. I had been working at Mars Incorporated for almost two years when I decided to take a new direction and follow a 6 month Fashion & Design course in Milan.

This equipped me with an artistic understanding of the Fashion Industry, but I was keen to gain further specialist skills and knowledge in order to obtain a competitive advantage in this field.

My search for the right Master’s degree brought me to Grenoble Ecole de Management’s MSc in Fashion and Luxury Management.I was attracted not only GEM’s international rankings, but also by the program’s unique merge of both the artistic and the business side of Fashion and Luxury.

Being a student on this program provided me with infinite tools, know-how and possibilities. This master’s degree is not only about gaining academic expertise, but also about developing interpersonal skills and networking, which are both key for developing a career in this niche industry.

Currently, I find myself working in the International Retail Development Department of Louis Vuitton’s at their Central Headquarters located in Paris, France. My personal determination and commitment enabled me to fulfill this dream, but such an opportunity would also not have been possible without the knowledge, skills and network I acquired on this outstanding program.
