About

In this episode, I am honored to welcome Fabienne Lupo, a visionary in the luxury industry and founder of Reluxury, a pioneering event dedicated to circular luxury. As the former CEO of Watches & Wonders, Fabienne was the driving force behind the world's most iconic and important watchmaking event today.

Fabienne shares her exceptional career journey, the business model behind luxury trade shows, the secrets of high-end event planning, and her insightful reflections on the future of the luxury industry through Reluxury.

A truly fascinating conversation that, I hope, will teach you as much as it has taught me!

A 30-minute best-of version is also available for those who want to focus on the key takeaways!

What You’ll Discover in This Exclusive Episode:

  • The Transformation of Watchmaking Trade Shows: Fabienne played a key role in transforming the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie into Watches & Wonders. This event has become a must-attend gathering for luxury brands, seamlessly blending B2B and B2C elements while showcasing the latest innovations in watchmaking.

  • The Importance of Heritage in Luxury: Fabienne emphasizes how luxury is deeply tied to transmission and longevity. She believes that luxury is not just about products, but about heritage—objects passed down from generation to generation, adding to their intrinsic value.

  • The Rise of the Circular Economy in Luxury: The luxury industry is embracing more sustainable practices, with a growing focus on circular luxury. Fabienne founded ReLuxury, a trade show dedicated to giving luxury goods a second life by promoting repair, recycling, and resale—a response to evolving consumer expectations.

  • From Art to Event Planning: With a background in theater and stage production, Fabienne has brought her creativity into the world of high-end events. Her journey illustrates how event planning is an art form, where every detail contributes to crafting a truly memorable experience.

  • Fashion and Uniqueness: Fabienne expresses her admiration for Chanel, a house that embodies originality and heritage in the luxury world. However, she also critiques the industry’s growing tendency toward imitation, stressing the need for brands to preserve their uniqueness and identity.
