Sector knowledge
Discreet handling of unreleased collections, campaigns and pricing under strict confidentiality.
Right terminology
We preserve brand-specific terminology, product names and the elevated register your house is known for.
Compliance & confidentiality

Frequently asked questions
Can you keep our brand's elevated tone?
Yes. We assign linguists who specialise in luxury and follow your style guide and tone of voice, so translations feel crafted, not converted.
Do you handle product descriptions at scale?
We localize large e-commerce catalogues while preserving product names, materials and the premium register, with terminology kept consistent throughout.
Can you protect unreleased collections?
Confidentiality is standard. We sign NDAs and handle campaign and collection material securely before launch.
Which languages suit luxury markets?
We cover the key luxury markets — including French, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Arabic — with native specialists for each.
Do you transcreate campaigns?
Yes. For headlines and campaign copy we transcreate, recreating the emotion and prestige of the original rather than translating literally.
