About this episode

Marie de la Roche is an incredibly talented and determined handbag designer. Her eponymous brand is relatively new but it is catching fire thanks to her bold designs and colours.

We met Marie de la Roche in Kuwait City. The place were the brand started only 2 years ago and a fascinating corner of our beloved Middle East.

MEET MARIE DE LA ROCHE

Marie is definitely a citizen of the world having lived in, and travelled to, every continent. When she was only 4 years old, she knew already what her calling was. She wanted to become a Fashion Designer. And so she did!

Her journey started studying Industrial Design to later study Fashion at Maragoni in Milan and Raffles in Singapore. There, she experienced discipline and perfectionism as never before. She started working as an editor, as a creative consultant and also as a buyer. Today, she is fully dedicated to her own brand. Although she does collaborations with other brands if requested and aligned with her own interests and curiosity.

In today´s podcast Marie de la Roche opens up and share with us how is her designing process, her production and also how she promotes and create brand awareness for her brand. From working with bloggers and influencers to observing the data and her clientele attentively. She keeps on trying to break the ever changing code of today´s markets.

Now Marie is extending Marie de la Roche´s reach to a new and quite interesting market: Korea. How is she planning to do it? Find it out by hitting Play.
