Industry leaders met at the Château du Chantilly near Paris for the two-day Vogue Business Global Summit. Discussions focused on luxury retail, AI applications, and emerging growth markets amid ongoing industry changes.
The event featured keynotes and panels with executives including Mytheresa CEO Francis Belin and designer Willy Chavarria. Belin emphasized client relationships and curation over discounts, stating that customers seek “flawless service” and “an emotional connection.” Other sessions addressed the future of appearance, with panelists from Estée Lauder and Sephora noting shifts toward treating aging through science and wellness rather than solely cosmetics.
