Other Initiatives
At Sandro, we believe that fashion should be a driver of opportunities.
Our commitment is part of a long-term approach: promoting equal opportunities, passing on our expertise and nurturing emerging talent, by collaborating with dedicated partners on a local and international scale.
Form, inspire, connect
We regularly collaborate with renowned schools and universities, such as Istituto Marangoni, Bocconi or ESMOD in Europe, as well as LIM College in New York and Donghua University in Shanghai, to support the next generation of creators and professionals. Through end-of-study juries, scholarships, conferences or career events, our teams share their expertise, both in France and internationally.
Creating pathways to employment
Sandro is also committed to working with organizations that promote inclusion and professional integration. In France, we support the charities Mode Estime and La Cravate Solidaire through mentoring, coaching, and collection initiatives. Across Europe, we partner with Dress for Success to help empower women in their professional lives.

JOANA DUARTE, WINNER OF THE SANDRO x MAISON MODE MÉDITERRANÉE AWARD
Portuguese designer Joana Duarte, founder of BÉHEN, won over the jury with her unique and deeply human approach. Her work breathes new life into traditional embroidery and weaving from the Azores and Madeira, transforming textiles rich with family history into bold ready-to-wear pieces. By collaborating closely with local artisan cooperatives, Joana proves that textile heritage is a living material, capable of entering into a dialogue with contemporary design while celebrating stories of memory and transmission.
