In this episode, we sit down with Franck Delpal, Director of the Mastère Spécialisé in Management of Fashion and Luxury at IFM and an expert in fashion economics. As the luxury sector enters a new industrial age, marked by consolidation across every level, from subcontractors and service providers to the major brands themselves, Franck Delpal breaks down the driving forces behind this shift. He explains why luxury giants are embracing vertical integration, and what this means for independent artisans, emerging designers, and the traditional values of craftsmanship. Finally, we discuss how this evolving landscape is redefining what luxury and craftsmanship mean, shaping the future of the industry.
