Isolde is stepping into her new role as the head of the contemporary fashion brand Iro, founded in Paris in 2005 by brothers Arik and Laurent Bitton. Andouard will be taking over the reins from her predecessor, Richard Fettaya.
Isole Andouard assumed her role as CEO of Undiz in January 2022, following a two-year stint as a strategic advisor to renowned fashion labels like Ganni and Jacquemus.

Catering to both men and women, the brand draws inspiration from the iconic rock styles of the 1970s and 1980s in the United States, positioning itself in the premium market segment. Their offerings include items like t-shirts, blouses and dresses.
