CEO/COO Luxury Goods, Luxury Marketing
Arche
EX YSL, Thierry Mugler, Valentino
Born and raised in France where he studied Philosophy and Theater looking to make a career out of it. After completing his military service he decided the part time job, which was to sell men’s fashion in a Paris luxury boutique, would become a full time job. That retail job lead to various jobs in Luxury Fashion.
As Georges says “I was now ready to pretend to greater things, perhaps in the Haute Couture world...” working with some of the best European designers such as Yves Saint Laurent, Valentino, Thierry Mugler, and Roger Vivier. Georges became a specialist on running subsidiary entities for European fashion companies and was ranked as high as Chief Executive Officer.
For the past 8 years Georges has been running the American subsidiary of the French shoe company Arche. He is also on the board at The Fashion School at Kent State University where he taught a course on Luxury and Marketing with the goal of helping students understand what the Fashion Industry is when the two concepts of marketing and luxury interact.
