Bruno Pavlovsky, president and chief executive officer of Chanel, takes on a new leadership role at The Fashion Pact. He joins the steering committee as co-chair, according to WWD.
Pavlovsky will serve alongside Inditex CEO Óscar García Maceiras and Fashion Pact cofounder Paul Polman on the sustainability initiative's steering committee. The appointment reflects Chanel's deepening involvement in The Fashion Pact, the industry-wide collective launched to drive environmental and social progress across fashion.
The Fashion Pact operates as a steering committee structure that guides the organization's strategic direction and initiatives. The addition of Pavlovsky to the co-chair position strengthens representation from luxury fashion houses within the group's leadership ranks.
Inditex, the parent company of Zara and other major retail brands, already held significant sway through García Maceiras' position. Paul Polman's continued involvement as cofounder ensures continuity of the organization's original vision and mission.
Pavlovsky's appointment signals Chanel's commitment to The Fashion Pact's sustainability agenda at the highest executive level. The luxury conglomerate has increasingly prioritized environmental responsibility and social accountability across its operations.
