This morning, we launched TOP Club, our leadership series with senior Marketing & Communications leaders from across luxury, fashion and beauty.

Joined by the formidable Karen Blackett CBE (.blackett.71) and Uwern Jong () who led the conversation centred on “The Outsider Advantage – why the most culturally intelligent marketing and communications teams win.” What was clear: cultural intelligence grows when we’re open to viewpoints that don’t mirror our own, and how stepping outside familiar frames of reference can sharpen both thinking and ex*****on.

TOP Club brings together senior leaders, from all functions, across luxury, fashion and beauty to have open conversations about the challenges and opportunities shaping the industry.

We welcomed leaders from brands , , , , , , , , and .

7 days. 7 reasons.

Today is the last day.

Reason 7: Because representation in leadership changes everything.

Not just for the people in the room. For the brands, the decisions, the products, and the people they reach.

The Outsiders Perspective exists because the industry is better when the people shaping it reflect the world it dresses. The Spring 2026 Accelerator is how that happens - one career at a time.

Reason 6: Fashion is looking beyond fashion.

The industry’s most forward-thinking brands are hiring from tech, finance and consulting. Because the skills shaping the future of luxury aren’t always found inside it.

If you’re coming from outside the industry, that’s not a barrier. Right now, it’s an advantage.
