[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Over time, women have gradually made their mark in the world of fashion, but not that some designers are hiding behind real businesswomen. Some have been running the biggest fashion houses since their creation and others have earned their place in management (artistic or not). Here are the biggest luxury houses run by the female elite.
“These luxury executives don’t just have nice CVs,” says Floriane de Saint-Pierre, founder of the eponymous human resources consultancy. They have also proven their qualities throughout their careers and they know how to make the houses they have been entrusted with grow.”
No wonder business is flourishing with women at the helm. After all, many of the houses were born from their initiative: Elsa Schiaparelli, Nina Ricci, Gabrielle Chane, Isabel marant…
Prada
Founded by his grandfather in 1913 as a leather goods company, Miuccia Prada has been running Prada since 1978 and has turned it into one of the world’s leading luxury brands. In 1989, she launched her first ready-to-wear collection, before launching her own line, Miu Miu, in 1992. At the beginning of 2020, she announced her evolution as co-director of Prada’s design, alongside designer Raf Simons. She is also the artistic director of Miu-Miu.

Francesca Bellettini, CEO of Yves Saint Laurent is one of the first women to have established herself as the director of a luxury house. In 2016, she also broke the one billion euro turnover barrier for the company, a feat.
