Alain Caradeuc
Senior Advisor

Both manager and artistic director, Alain Caradeuc offers a rare example of duality of competence and experience in the two sectors where he has successively carried out his activities: fashion - luxury ready-to-wear, designers, sportswear; design - contemporary furniture and interior architecture.

Having followed management studies at HEC Paris and started his career in management control, Alain Caradeuc quickly felt drawn to the relationship to creation, the management of creators and designers and the artistic direction of collections for companies including he was in charge.

His career has thus led him to rub shoulders with and collaborate with the important players in these professions such as Léonard, Thierry Mugler, Guy Paulin, Azzedine Alaïa, Esprit for the part of his career devoted to fashion. Subsequently, he accompanied Andrée Putman, Antonio Citterio, Didier Gomez, Christian Liaigre, François Champsaur, among others, on projects related to furniture and interior architecture with the companies of which he assumed the general management: Hugues Chevalier, First Time, Treca Interiors and Steiner. Long member of the Board of UNIFA and VIA, currently responsible for the Luxury & Cosmetics Pole within the HEC Alumni association, he now works as a development and brand management consultant on behalf of designers and manufacturers of the luxury sector and of excellence. His collaborations lead him to intervene in France as well as in Italy, China or the United States.

On the board of advisors for XCASSIA since 2016.
