SOSTENIBILITÀ
“AT SAINT LAURENT SUSTAINABILITY IS A FUNDAMENTAL COMMITMENT. IT IS NOT A MARKETING EXERCISE BUT A MENTALITY.”
FRANCESCA BELLETTINI, CEO
SAINT LAURENT’S APPROACH IS ROOTED IN A QUEST TO CONSTANTLY IMPROVE—IN MEANINGFUL AND MEASURABLE WAYS. RECOGNIZING THE COMPLEX NATURE OF SUSTAINABILITY, THE HOUSE IS ENGAGED IN A BROAD RANGE OF INITIATIVES AIMED AT PROTECTING HUMAN RIGHTS AND DIGNITY, PRESERVING THE ENVIRONMENT, AND IMPLEMENTING RESPONSIBLE SOURCING.
SAINT LAURENT EMBRACES THE RESPONSIBILITY TO WORK TODAY FOR A BETTER TOMORROW. FAR MORE THAN AN ETHICAL NECESSITY, SUSTAINABILITY IS A FORCE OF INNOVATION AND A GAUGE OF SUCCESS. IT IS EMBEDDED IN THE HOUSE’S CULTURE, DRIVING DECISIONS AND BEHAVIORS AT EVERY LEVEL.
TO BUILD SUSTAINABILTY AWARENESS WITHIN THE HOUSE, EMPLOYEES ARE ENCOURAGED TO COMPLETE A 50 MINUTES COURSE ON THE SUBJECT. THIS CURRICULUM IS ALSO A FUNDAMENTAL COMPONENT OF THE SAINT LAURENT COUTURE INSTITUTE, A SIX-MONTH COURSE FOR ADVANCED FASHION STUDENTS AND EMPLOYEES OF THE HOUSE THAT WAS DEVELOPED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE INSTITUT FRANÇAIS DE LA MODE.
