Alexandre Arnault
Deputy Chief Executive, Moët Hennessy
Arnault is already precipitating change within LVMH. The former chief executive of Rimowa joined the recently-acquired Tiffany in 2021.
Alexandre Arnault is the deputy chief executive of Moët Hennessy and a member of the LVMH Board of Directors. The third child of LVMH chairman Bernard Arnault, he has established himself as a key architect of the group’s digital transformation and its strategic pivot toward a younger, global audience.
Arnault assumed his leadership role at Moët Hennessy in February 2025, following a highly successful four-year tenure as executive vice president of product and communications at Tiffany & Co. At the American jeweller, Arnault was credited with modernising the brand’s 187-year-old heritage through the “Not Your Mother’s” Tiffany campaign and blockbuster collaborations with Supreme and Nike. His time in New York culminated in the 2023 reopening of “The Landmark,” the brand's iconic Fifth Avenue flagship, which remains one of the highest-grossing luxury retail spaces in the world.
Arnault’s executive career began at just 25, when he identified the German luggage maker Rimowa as a prime acquisition target. Serving as CEO from 2017 to 2020, he transformed the heritage brand into a cultural status symbol through high-profile collaborations with Off-White, Dior, and Fendi. His digital-first approach was instrumental in launching 24S (formerly 24 Sèvres), LVMH’s multi-brand e-commerce platform. Speaking on his influence, former LVMH Chief Digital Officer Ian Rogers noted, “Alexandre was really key to that... his vision allowed the group to make this leap.”
A graduate of Télécom ParisTech with a Master’s from École Polytechnique, Arnault brings a distinctively analytical and technological perspective to the luxury sector. In addition to his role at Moët Hennessy, he oversees Moët Hennessy Private, a bespoke service for ultra-wealthy clientele.
In April 2024, Arnault’s influence within the family conglomerate was formalised with his appointment to the LVMH Board of Directors. In 2025, he further expanded his reach by joining the Board of Directors of Moncler, following LVMH's strategic investment in the Italian brand. Based in Paris, Arnault is fluent in French, English, and German, and serves as a managing director for the family holding company, Financière Agache.
