Eva Jeanbart-Lorenzotti:
Founder of VIVRE
Style Maven
Philanthropist

Hailed as a "mail-order magnate" by TIME and "one of the 10 most stylish women in fashion" by VOGUE, Eva single-handedly redefined the business of direct marketing to the affluent consumer with the first mailing of the Vivre catalog, which featured two European luxury brands. A favorite of the media, Eva's trailblazing success is often featured in the pages of both the business and fashion press. Her articulate insight has been shared through venues as diverse as the Harvard Business School Entrepreneurship Conference, the International Herald Tribune Luxury Conference, the American Express Luxury Conference, CNN, CNBC and the Fine Living Channel.

Born and raised in Switzerland, Eva's deep familiarity with the European culture and her multilingual command of five languages have uniquely positioned her at the center of the rapidly evolving international luxury market.

Eva lends her expertise to a number of charity and philanthropic efforts, including leadership roles with the Guggenheim Museum Young Collector's Club, the Henry Street Settlement, Save Venice Inc., and the Kips Bay Decorator Showcase.
