Icon of the month January 2023: Marie Marot

What made you want to get into entrepreneurship?
It was natural, I am convinced that it is a state of mind that you either have or you don't have. It is a difficult daily life, whether it works or it doesn't, it is without a safety net, it is up to you. And at the same time it is a fabulous adventure, which pushes you to surpass yourself, we also learn a lot about ourselves.

Why the shirt and where do you find your inspiration?
Most women "collect" shoes, I have always "collected" shirts since I was a teenager, in cotton, denim, linen, vintage, new and many different brands. It is a garment in which I instantly feel good, whether it is worn dressed up or more casual. It is "torture" for me to wear a t-shirt ;)

I get inspired by everything, I look at everything, what we did before and what we do now. Even if my shirts are timeless and classic, the eye and the image must remain fresh!

The Marie Marot universe in 3 words?
Timeless, desirable, feminine & masculine

In your opinion, what are the 3 essentials of a woman's wardrobe?
A shirt, jeans and a cashmere sweater – it doesn’t get more feminine than this

Could you tell me your fashion and beauty icons?
Catherine Deneuve, Fanny Ardant, Andrée Putman, Ali McGraw, Lauren Hutton, Giovanni Agnelli, Françoise Sagan and many others…

What are your wellness tips for living life in the fast lane?
Don't live life in the fast lane ;) – know how to take time, time for yourself, listen to yourself. Living life in the fast lane is not a guarantee of productivity...

D+ for care, what does that mean to you?
Inner beauty – reverse the trend, start at the beginning, namely taking care of yourself from the inside, through diet and food supplements and not just through creams and serums. Adopt new reflexes.

What is your relationship with beauty? A big consumer or more of a minimalist?
Quite minimalist – I like to test new products for at least 2/3 months and never too many products or supplements at the same time.

If you had to keep just one beauty product, which one would you keep?
Collagen sticks!

Finally, what would you say to a young entrepreneur who would like to get started?
Without hesitation I would tell him to go for it, everything is possible even without any background or investor.

Tell a story, create a universe, don't forget your intuition, know how to surround yourself well, have fun and be persistent. The rest will follow...
