About

As a powerful force for change, fashion can revolutionize our impact on people, planet and culture. This conviction drove me to found Commercialising Creativity, empowering fashion pioneers to launch, scale and succeed.

With over a decade of luxury brand expertise, I bridge creation and commerce through a holistic approach combining creativity, strategy, and commerciality. Acting as vector, catalyst, and curator, I deliver bespoke strategies, find breakthrough ideas, identify potentials, connect stakeholders, and design projects creating lasting impact that transcends traditional fashion boundaries.

In 2022, the agency was recognised as a company with positive social impact by Innosuisse – Swiss Innovation Agency.

fROM STRATEGY TO ACTION

BRAND DEVELOPMENT

A goal without a plan is just a wish. — Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, French writer and pilot

There is only one magic formula to bring your vision to fruition: The development of a strong and singular value proposition, coupled to a strategy that defines your brand’s concept, its purpose, its DNA, its aspirational target, its positioning, its goals and how to achieve these. We lead you in the development of your brand strategy by designing a brand platform with you, also known as “brand bible”. This synthesis tool allows you to structure the reflection, to guide the actions related to your brand and to ensure consistency in communication and marketing actions.

SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY

There is no beauty in the finest cloth if it makes hunger and unhappiness, Mahatma Gandhi

We advise you in the improvement of your commitment to sustainability and analyse what efforts and improvements it requires for your company. We support you in the design of a purpose driven business model and the development of the strategic realignment of processes that benefits people and the planet. We lead you in the development of a holistic, viable and credible sustainability strategy. 

COLLECTION PLANNING & MERCHANDISING

When business and creativity work hand-in-hand

A product offer is more likely to meet the requirements of buyers and consumers if it is calibrated to its target markets, to evolving distribution networks and upcoming trends. We lead you in the planning of your collections to give this a business orientation while respecting your DNA. We advise you in the structure of your offer, and in the development of a consistent approach to pricing and margins. So we help you save resources, time and costs while staying true to your creative vision.

SALES & DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY

Sales and distribution are vital to generate revenue and grow your brand

We develop client-centric b2b strategies aligned with your commercial goals. We identify potential markets and targets in accordance with your design codes, your resources, your positioning, and your aspirational target. This gives you a clear understanding of your targeted customers and of the market. This enables you to plan and manage different sales approaches.
