À propos de Adrien

I'm a fashion operations and product consultant with 19 years across premium and luxury. I've held senior roles at LVMH, Kering, Burberry, Axel Arigato and Norse Projects, working the full spread of merchandising, range planning, demand and supply planning, product development and order-to-fulfilment.

That mix means I'm as comfortable in a design meeting as I am in the back end of an ERP, and I tend to live in the gap between the two, where most growing brands quietly lose money and efficiency.

Today I run a consulting practice advising fashion brands on operations, planning and transformation, and how to be AI first.
I also founded PAST TENSE, a Stockholm-based contemporary menswear label, so I know what it's like to carry the operational weight as a founder, not just advise on it from the outside.

What I actually do for clients:

Operations and process. Mapping how product moves from design to fulfilment, finding where it breaks, and rebuilding it so it holds as volume grows.
Planning and merchandising. Range architecture, buy plans, allocation logic, and the reporting that tells you whether any of it is working.

Systems and tooling. Helping brands choose, structure and actually use the platforms behind their operation, including Shopify, PLM and ERP setups, without buying complexity they don't need.

Transformation. Translating messy operational reality into systems and ways of working that survive scaling.

My approach is practical and grounded. I'd rather ship a working process than produce a deck nobody reads.

If you're wrestling with product development, sourcing, planning, fulfilment, margin or the tools underneath it, that's exactly the kind of problem I like.
