Last December, the French Federation of Women's Ready-to-Wear organized the first edition of Rôle Modèle, an event that brought together many French decision-makers in the fashion industry in the Espace Niemeyer, in Paris. This came as an opportunity for the Luxurynsight-FashionNetwork podcast to relocate to the impressive building that houses the headquarters of the French Communist Party. In this podcast, Pierre-François Le Louët, president of the federation, sat down with Godfrey Deeny to exchange dialogue on the financing of French brands and relationships with financial actors.

Pierre-François Le Louët detailed the potential of different business models that make up the fashion industry and points out investor’s strong interest in identifying and supporting new brands, but also in their interest to participate in the scaling up of already established brands in order to accelerate their growth.

In order to grow, companies need to lure investors, but they also have multiple platforms available and have the option to choose which one suits them best. Even if fashion remains a territory that seems risky to investors, the president of the FFPAPF makes sure to slip in profitable success stories within the French clothing industry in hopes of inspiring both entrepreneurs and investors.
