Alison Loehnis on YOOX NET-A-PORTER, balancing work and family, food memories and growing up in Manhattan

Alison Loehnis and I have much in common — we’re two American women living abroad, we both adore the small seaside towns of Liguria, and we share a favourite bookstore: Heywood Hill in Mayfair. Alison grew up in Manhattan with a mother who was a passionate cook. She discovered the joy of food and fashion early on—licking brownie spoons next to her mother and elegantly accessorising her school uniform. She channelled her ambition into a dynamic career spanning Saatchi & Saatchi, Disney, LVMH, and now YOOX NET-A-PORTER. Today, Alison and I are here at Table 4 to talk fashion, leadership, balancing work and family—and, of course, food in our lives and the memories we share. Made in partnership with Moncler.
