This major announcement for the French creative industries was made by Tristan De Witte President of the Réseau Excellence, alongside Marc Pradal (Kiplay), Amedi Nacer and Olivier Verrièle, in front of all the players of the Fashion and Luxury ecosystem gathered for this strategic event.
Structure and radiate exceptional know-how
With the launch of the Réseau Excellence Mode et Beauté, the EPV Excellence Network is now 238 companies labeled Living Heritage Enterprises, from the worlds of fashion and beauty. These houses, workshops and factories represent close to 19% of French VTEs, and embody a unique living heritage, anchored in territories and oriented towards innovation.
This new sector marks a structural step for the Fashion and Luxury sector in France: it aims to join forces, create Strategic gateways between principals, luxury homes and know-how of excellence, and to increase the visibility of EVPs in France and internationally.
Three missions at the heart of Mode des EPV
The Fashion and Beauty Réseau Excellence is structured around three strong axes:
Federate EPV companies of fashion and beauty and strengthen their links with major luxury houses and brands
Accompany companies on key issues in the sector: CSR, artificial intelligence, transfer of know-how and training
Radiate through dedicated events, an enhanced presence on international fairs and Fashion Weeks
On this occasion, Tristan De Witte recalled the ambition of the Réseau Excellence:
"The Fashion and Beauty of Réseau Excellence symbolizes our commitment to the preservation, recognition and revitalization of our craft and industrial heritage. Through this new platform, we are committed to opening doors, building bridges and fostering enriching exchanges between exceptional know-how holders and key influencers in fashion and luxury. What to do is to make French living heritage shine out and inspire future generations to pursue the quest for excellence. »

Strong recognition within the CSF Mode et Luxe
In welcoming this launch at its plenary session, the Fashion and Luxury Branch Strategic Committee confirmed the central place of the Enterprises of Living Heritage in the competitiveness and attractiveness of the French sector, which represents more 600,000 jobs and EUR 154 billion in turnover.
Première Vision Paris, a historical partner of industrialists and creators, is once again asserting itself as a place of convergence for the sector's structuring initiatives, at the service of know-how and their transmission.
With this new industry, the Réseau Excellence EPV asserts more than ever his role as reference network of exceptional know-how, at the heart of the creation, innovation and international influence of French Fashion and Luxury.
