Strategic advice for premium fashion brands, retailers and agencies.

Twenty years of entrepreneurship form the foundation of my advice today. I help organisations make strategic choices that don’t just sound good, but work in practice.

01 Fashion Retail Consultancy

Strategy Starts with Listening

Every organisation reaches moments where a fresh perspective adds real value. Growth, change or a new direction call for clear choices and an independent sparring partner.

I help fashion brands, retailers and agencies with questions around positioning, commercial strategy, customer experience and sustainable growth.

Not from models or theory, but from over twenty years of hands-on experience as an entrepreneur, retailer and buyer.

02 Buying & Collection Strategy

A Strong Collection Starts Before the Buying Begins

Successful collections are never a coincidence.

Years of building international collections, managing budgets and working with premium brands taught me how important the balance is between identity, commerce and margin.

I support clients with collection building, brand mix, budget allocation, showroom visits, international buying, assortment optimisation and margin improvement.

A collection should not only inspire — it should contribute to a healthy business result.

03 Brand Development

Growing from a Strong Brand Identity

A strong brand sells more than products. It tells a story that fits its audience, its retailers and the market it operates in.

I support fashion brands and agencies with positioning, distribution strategy, dealer selection, market development, commercial growth and brand experience.

Having worked on both sides of the market, I understand the interests of brands as well as those of retailers.

04 On the Shop Floor

Training That Sticks After I Leave

Strategy is only as strong as the team that executes it. I train and coach sales teams on the shop floor — in customer experience, sales technique and brand presentation — so the advice doesn’t stay on paper.

05 Approach

Personal, Independent and Involved

Every collaboration starts with an introduction. I listen, ask questions and identify where the biggest opportunities lie.

A clear recommendation follows, with concrete, actionable steps.

Where useful, I stay involved during implementation — as a sparring partner or temporary commercial support.

  • Introduction and needs assessment
  • Analysis of brand, collection, market or organisation
  • Strategic and commercial advice
  • Concrete priorities and next steps
  • Support during implementation or temporary assistance

“Strategy only creates value
when it also works in practice.”
