About Chris

I help fashion, luxury, and lifestyle brands build a consistent, distinctive, and desirable voice.

Formerly a journalist, communications director, and then operations director in the premium retail sector, I now support brands with their editorial strategy, storytelling, and content creation challenges.

Through Langue Vivante, my brand language consulting practice, I work on both strategic thinking and content production:

→ Brand language & editorial platform
→ Content strategy
→ Storytelling
→ Social media
→ Newsletters & CRM
→ Copywriting
→ English to French editorial adaptation

Over the years, I have supported players in the fashion, luxury, retail, and wine & spirits industries, including Valentino, Krug, Poupette St Barth, FIVE, Jane de Boy, and Wrangler.

Available for one-off missions as well as regular support.
