In July 2024, we launched TOP Community, a forum where our partners nominated 5 people of colour, from different levels and functions within the business. A space to build a genuine sense of belonging, to foster connections with peers and to support steering our industry to become a more inclusive place for everyone. In partnership with Fashion Business School, London College of Fashion, University of the Arts London we produced a white paper that aggregates those insights as a toolkit for action in business. A first of its kind industry-wide collection of insights from 50 employees, sharing challenges and opportunities. - Yesterday morning we convened HR and DEI leaders from our brand partners to form an industry collective. A timely gathering to push forward our mission for luxury, fashion and beauty to lead on presenting people as the business strategy for success. We presented our white paper on the action points from the inaugural TOP Community - in partnership with the Fashion Business School at London College of Fashion, University of the Arts London. We aligned on the need to demonstrate more tangible results, on the value and success that a high performing, diverse and inclusive team creates for business and especially our industries. Thank you Alexander McQueen, ASOS.com, Burberry, CHANEL, Christian Dior Couture, dunhill, lululemon, Mulberry England, Paul Smith, Puig and Stella McCartney. With a special thanks to Rosewood London for hosting us.
