In August, we took to our LinkedIn platform to showcase and celebrate extraordinary women, from the United States to the United Arab Emirates who made it onto the Women in Sustainable Luxury 2025 Recognition List.

Michela Gioacchini is Head of Sustainability & Corporate Social Responsibility for Tod's Group.

We asked Michela about getting buy-in, career highlights, values guiding her and working for brand versus consulting.

Ella Hopton (Gould) is a Fashion Circularity Expert. She is the former Head of Sustainability and Innovation at Selfridges and is currently Director of Circular and Sustainability Solutions at Avery Dennison, a global materials science and digital identification solutions company.

We asked Ella about scaling circularity, career transitions and having conviction in your ideas.

Anna Zambaldo is a Value Chain Sustainability Manager at Ferragamo.

We asked Anna for her perspective on female leadership in sustainable luxury, her advice for delivering in challenging times and advice for anyone interested in a career in sustainable luxury.

Elisa Niemtzow is the Vice President- Consumer Sectors & Membership at BSR (Business for Social Responsibility), Margot Lorphelin is a Sustainability Consultant- Transformation and Consumer Sector and Alexia Tronel is the Co-Founder of Racine and Itenérance.

We asked them about their new venture and what luxury can learn from them, launching a collective and the challenges that come with such an undertaking.
