  • Scaling Sales Teams for Hypergrowth Brands
    Sep 30 2025
    Ernesta, an accessible luxury direct-to-consumer rug brand launched in 2023 by a Peloton co-founder, is revolutionizing the home décor industry with quick-turnaround custom rugs measured down to the inch. In this episode for Retail Rx, Ian Fredericks, CEO of Hilco Global Capital Solutions and the executive director of Hilco Global’s retail and consumer platform, chatted with Jennifer Parker, chief sales officer at Ernesta, about the brand’s innovative approach, commitment to customer experience and retail expansion plans. Parker credited her diverse career background—from Bloomingdale’s to Peloton, where she worked with Peloton CEO and Ernesta founder John Foley—for shaping her leadership style and passion for customer-centric strategies. At Ernesta, her focus is on building a strong foundation for growth, fostering collaborative teams and embracing an omnichannel retail strategy. The company’s unique value proposition includes rapid delivery (Ernesta custom rugs arrive in two to four weeks, an impressive timeline for any custom category). The podcast also highlighted Ernesta’s dedication to both consumers and trade professionals through services like virtual consultations, design renderings and seamless purchase experiences. The brand’s hybrid model also allows customers to customize rugs and view real-time pricing online, then step into showrooms to touch and feel the rugs, receive personalized advice and procure samples to experience back in their home.

  • Carolina Cucinelli on Being a Woman in a Menswear World and Evolving Her Family’s Business
    Sep 23 2025
    In the latest “Savage Fashion” podcast episode, WWD’s chief content officer Jim Fallon and style director Alex Badia sat down with Carolina Cucinelli, vice president and co-creative director of Brunello Cucinelli, to discuss her journey in the company and how her family business continues to evolve as it looks to the future. “When I started in the business, I was 19,” Cucinelli said during the podcast, which was filmed at the Four Seasons on 57th Street in New York. “You can imagine: I was 19, a woman and the daughter of Mr. Brunello [Cucinelli], the owner of the company. In the beginning, people don’t trust you because everyone thinks that things are easy for you. But I realized that I needed to do 20 percent more than other people [to be taken seriously].” Before Milan Fashion Week, Cucinelli was in New York to attend the WWD x FN x Beauty Inc Women in Power summit; she was named one of ⁠WWD x FN x Beauty Inc’s 55 Women in Power⁠ for 2025.
