“We built ourselves as a luxury brand, and a luxury brand takes it time…It’s about values, a certain culture, and expert skill.” It’s a unique entrepreneurial journey that Isabelle Dubern-Mallevays, co-founder of The Invisible Collection, tells us about. How did she create the first-ever online sales platform for one-of-a-kind signature pieces from major designers? From her dream of owning the Bear armchair designed by Pierre Yovanovitch, to her sadness at realising that renowned designers’ creations remained relatively unknown beyond a small fanbase and often not affordable for art lovers and collectors, to her desire to work with her friend Anna Zaoui…Over 100 big names are now part of this marvelous adventure that’s truly prospering. It’s the inspiring tale of a success story that started with a passion for decor, the decorative arts, fashion and the world of luxury, coupled with a real obsession to offer the best possible service to her clients.
