In spring 2019, the "Fenty" brand, named after the star Robyn Rihanna Fenty, was created within the world's most prestigious luxury group, LVMH. First woman to launch her own brand within LVMH, a consecration for the influential artist and world icon! "Creating a brand with LVMH is an incredibly special moment for us. Mr. Arnault gave me artistic carte blanche to develop a fashion house in the world of luxury. I couldn't imagine a better partner, both in terms of creativity and business."

For Bernard Arnault, this was obvious after a successful first collaboration in the world of beauty, "Everyone knows the wonderful singer Rihanna, but through our partnership with Fenty Beauty, I discovered her entrepreneurial spirit, her leadership skills and an impressive leader. It really has its place in the LVMH family. Behind Rihanna, we have mobilized the energy of a talented and multicultural team, supported by the resources of our Group. I am proud that this House was created thanks to LVMH, and I wish it every success. »

The agreement between the president of LVMH and the international star is a new business model that has been welcomed as a real innovation by the players in the sector. For the first time, a woman is at the head of her own house at LVMH, a woman of color, and a woman who is at the same time inspiring, designer and manager!
