Back to original languageAbout Emilie
European fashion isn't just Paris, Milan, and London.
It's also Warsaw, Krakow, Prague, Budapest – cities that create, innovate, and produce, but remain invisible.
My mission? To build bridges.

I'm Emilie, a fashion strategy consultant specializing in the connection between Eastern and Western Europe.
After 6 years in styling and product development at Officine Générale, Peclers Paris, La Redoute, and Givenchy, I now support:
- Eastern European brands looking to break into French and Western European markets
- French brands seeking to source and produce in Eastern Europe with quality and ethics
- Young designers wanting to structure their collections and positioning
Bilingual in French and Polish, I translate not only language but also cultural codes, pricing strategies, and market realities.

MY SERVICES:
- Artistic Direction & Brand Strategy: Clarify your identity, brand platform, define your target audience, create your brand territory
- Collection Creation and Development: Collection plan, color and material palette, creative and commercial coherence
- Sourcing: Selection of manufacturers in Europe and Eastern Europe, negotiation, quality control
- Fashion Week Analysis: Detailed post-show reports (Big 4 and other emerging fashion cities)

MY CONVICTION:
The most interesting brands aren't always in the spotlight. My job is to give them the visibility they deserve and to connect ecosystems that ignore each other.
If you are a Polish, Czech, or other Eastern European brand looking to conquer the West, or a French brand seeking production partners in Eastern Europe, let's talk.
