The art of luxury
Luxury lives in the details. When creating the private consultation coffret for Armani, our retail teams didn’t just act as project managers, they worked like artisans. They pushed boundaries with suppliers to source fabrics that match the house's couture heritage. The result isn't just a beautiful object. It elevates how Beauty Advisors interact with consumers.
YSL:
Moving at the speed of culture
To resonate today, luxury brands have to move fast. The YSL Beauty Light Club isn't just a traditional store design, it’s the result of Retail, Marketing, PR, and Digital teams working as one. By breaking down silos, we built a space that goes far beyond a standard shop to become a true cultural touchpoint.
It takes more than a
passion for beauty
Working in our retail teams comes down to a few realities: the standards are high, the pace is fast. You need the agility to adapt as expectations shift, and a genuine obsession with the details and the luxury experience. If you learn fast and are ready to shape the reality of luxury, you’ll fit right in.
What our people say
Retail, to me, is where everything comes together. I would say it's the moment of truth. Also the moment of magic. It's where a brand stops being a concept and becomes an experience. It's where consumers actually feel, see, touch and connect emotionally with what we've built upstream. And that's why I believe retail is one of the most powerful lever for impact.
