Valentine is an experienced consultant at Carbone 4. As a member of the Luxury & Retail Practice and an expert in the creative industries—particularly the fashion sector—Valentine helps companies rethink their business models to reduce their carbon footprint by defining decarbonization strategies and concrete action plans.
A graduate of Sciences Po Strasbourg and holder of a Master 2 degree in Intellectual Property Law, she rounded out her education with the Specialized Master’s in “Fashion and Luxury Management” at the Institut Français de la Mode, during which she wrote a thesis on the European linen industry. She also completed the “Fashion Sustainability” certificate program, which allowed her to deepen her understanding of the sector’s environmental and social challenges.
Before joining Carbone 4, Valentine gained diverse experience in the development and production of ready-to-wear collections. She first served as operations manager at a brand committed to a circular approach, before working in collection merchandising for a luxury fashion house.
