Dior is always associated with LVMH, but Dior Couture, ReadytoWear, Leathergoods and Jewelry are actually not owned by the luxury group, i think. So, what's the exact relationship between LVMH and Dior? Can anyone share any info? Btw is John Galliano owned by Dior?
 
yeah i also wonder so....if you check the lvmh website...they only talk about dior perfume and watches. i don't think couture and rtw have nothing to do with lvmh. but emmmm don't know......

yes Dior perfume, cosmetics and watches are owned by LVMH. i think they are separated from Dior couture. it's bizarre, isn't it?
 
LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton S.A. (Euronext: MC), usually shortened to LVMH, is a French holding company and the world's largest luxury goods conglomerate. It is the parent of around 50 sub-companies that each manage a small number of prestigious brands. The child companies are run, to a large extent, autonomously. The group was formed after mergers brought together champagne producer Moët et Chandon and Hennessy, a leading manufacturer of brandy. In 1987, they merged with baggage manufacturer Louis Vuitton to form the current group.
The group is partly owned by the Christian Dior group, and Bernard Arnault is Chairman and CEO of both companies. His successful integration of various famous aspirational brands into the group has inspired other luxury companies into doing the same. Thus Gucci (now part of the French conglomerate PPR) and Richemont have also created extended portfolios of luxury brands. The oldest of the LVMH brands is wine producer Château d'Yquem, which dates its origins back to 1593.

so, which fashion house is the biggest in france???????
and what the hell is Christian Dior group????

does that mean they need specific rights to feature couture and rtw catwalk photos in their cosmetics advertising?!
 
we will never understand their business things unless we're working there
 
^_^ I think you're correct. Every one has a stake in someone, somewhere, somehow! :woot: :lol:

Christian Dior SA is a holding company which has a 42 % stake in LVMH. I think the cosmetics and watches line is operated by LVMH. Christian Dior Couture operates the womenswear, Dior Joallerie and Baby Dior segment. Don't know about Dior Homme, neither Dior Finances nor LVMH mention it.

Christian Dior SA is one of the 500 world's most profitable and largest companies according to Forbes magazine.

...How 'bout that?
 
what i hear is that Dior couture is largely owned by Arnault himself. so it is like Arnault > Dior > LVMH
 
no clue but last i was at the lvmh office here, there was a big Dior Couture sign over the receptionists's head..

wikipedia
A holding company is a company that owns enough voting stock in another firm to control management and operations by influencing or electing its board of directors.
Strictly speaking, the term "holding company" might be used to describe any company that owns a majority of shares in another company. Usually, though, the term signifies a company which does not produce goods or services itself, but, rather, whose only purpose is owning shares of other companies (or owning other companies outright). Holding companies allow the reduction of risk for the owners and can allow the ownership and control of a number of different companies.

Chairman and CEO Bernard Arnault and family control Christian Dior.

So we can conclude that it is owned by sum key ppl like [SIZE=-1]Bernard Arnault, Christian Dior family(who? I dunno can find more abt that), and sum shareholder(if they hold that much of it:-))

The role of John Gallino is pretty much.. but I dont think his decision can get more than 30% of the company.. Remember 42% is LVHM and the Dior family.

[/SIZE]
Sidney Toledano ist the boss of [SIZE=-1]Christian Dior Couture ist also in the executive level.

But I think the ppl like Bernard/Sidney just get their wage as executive level.. and the ppl who own shares will get loads of $$$$ from its turnover:-)
