“He was a visionary,” said Toledano, who recently stepped down as president of the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode, lauding Baufumé as “the first French executive to introduce the modern fashion-business model.”
In 1977 he moved to Italy and joined Italian fashion giant Gruppo Finanziaro Tessile as export director for the women’s division, where he launched Giorgio Armani’s women’s collection.fashion house in Paris, from 1980 to 1993, when the brand was acquired by then-budding luxury group LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton.
Gianfranco Ferré was Dior’s couturier when Baufumé joined the French house. The creative reins were passed to John Galliano in 1996, igniting a period of rapid growth. Besides his executive work, Baufumé played a key role piloting the Cité de la Mode project, an idea launched by France’s Chambre Syndicale to group France’s best fashion design and management schools under one roof. He would also serve as a lecturer at the Institut Français de la Mode, or IFM, which officially opened in 1985.
