Towards transformations reshaping creative industries, the Fashion Division of GL events and COSMETIC VALLEY are uniting their expertise through a strategic partnership to foster innovation, strengthen cooperation between fashion and beauty, and support the international reach of French know-how. This partnership aims to build new bridges between two sectors of excellence: fashion and beauty.
This convergence is also built on the complementarity of both players, dedicated to serving their respective industries. The Fashion Division of GL events supports fashion companies through their transformations by providing them with the guidance, connections, and opportunities necessary to innovate, develop, and meet the major challenges of their industry. COSMETIC VALLEY, for its part, unites the French perfume and cosmetics sector and works to strengthen its competitiveness, innovation capacity, and international reach.
Starting in September, it will find a concrete application at Première Vision Paris. From September 1st to 3rd, at Paris Nord Villepinte, and as an extension of the beauty showcases already featured in its inspiration forums, Première Vision Paris will host - a first selection of “made in France” creative beauty companies within a Cosmetic Village.
"Fashion companies are evolving in a deeply changing environment that leads them to rethink their growth models and identify new avenues for development. The convergence between fashion and beauty fits perfectly within this dynamic. Through this partnership with Cosmetic Valley, we assert our commitment to supporting the stakeholders in our industries by creating favorable conditions for new collaborations, the opening of new markets, and the creation of value between two industries whose trajectories are increasingly converging. This alliance more broadly illustrates the mission we have set for ourselves: helping companies anticipate market trends, understand the transformations in their environment, and build the drivers for their future growth."
Florence Rousson, President of the Executive Board of Première Vision and General Manager of the Fashion DIvision of GL events
"With a value chain that is unique in the world, the French fragrance and cosmetics industry is today a model of success based on innovation, scientifi c excellence, and industrial performance. Through COSMETIC VALLEY, we are committed to pooling our resources and forging the partnerships that will shape the competitiveness of tomorrow.By partnering with the Fashion Division of GL events, we are taking a new step forward: bringing together two iconic “Made in France” sectors to develop new opportunities for growth, innovation, and infl uence. Our ambition is clear: to foster new synergies between fashion and beauty, both in France and internationally, and to strengthen France’s position as a global leader in the creative industries."
Christophe Masson, General Manager of COSMETIC VALLEY
“Our participation in Première Vision offered FIABILA the opportunity to fully embody color through a 360-degree approach. These two editions reinforced a deep conviction: fashion and beauty no longer merely echo one another; they are imagined and built together. Color has become their common language, creating a natural bond between materials, silhouettes, skin, and nails to offer a comprehensive creative experience. Cosmetics no longer follow fashion trends; they extend, interpret, and reveal them, becoming a true driver of innovation. Fashion imagines color. Beauty brings it to life. Together, they shape a 360-degree vision, where color expresses itself with coherence and emotion, from textiles all the way to the skin and nails.”
