About Carla

From large companies to the runway, I chose the field.

Latest production: Opera Garnier, March 3, 2026. Fashion show production for emerging designer: Kobi Halperin | Kilian Kerner | Aras Nancy | The Muse | La Daríque | Sagio | Max Alexander | Brook Barry | MelMaxi | Rolla Summers | Aleen Sabbagh | Elie Feghali | YS Brand | Fjolla Nila | Sarah Abbas (Vogue France, Vanity Fair, Harper Bazar, Quotidien, 20 Minutes etc...)

After several years at Amazon and in fashion event production, I decided to put my expertise to work for what truly passionate me: brands with a story to tell.

Today, I support creators, houses, and agencies in their business development and brand strategy with a concrete, results-oriented approach.
What I bring:
✦ Strategic partnership development & commercial negotiation
✦ Fashion event production (fashion shows, showrooms, pop-ups, launches)
✦ Luxury/fashion content translation & localization FR ↔ EN
✦ Pitch deck, partnership dossier & content strategy writing
✦ Positioning consulting for emerging brands

My guiding principle: I believe the best brands don't sell a product, they transmit a universe. It is this conviction that guides every mission I accept.
