Mary Francie Boccina is an award-winning fashion and luxury goods market expert who has published several important biographies, as well as a radio commentator and university professor. She is often invited to give speeches in Europe and the United States. As an authoritative observer in the luxury goods industry, Marie Francesco Boccina is committed to exploring the power and influence that drive the development of this industry, and provides a detailed introduction to some leading figures in the industry. In 1980, she published her first book, Hello Mr. Bossack, which tells the story of textile tycoon and founder of Christian Dior Fashion House, Marcel Bossack, and won the Prix Louis Marin Award from the French Academy. The huge commercial empire established by this French man behind the scenes was the embryonic form of Louis Vuitton, the world's top luxury goods group, which sparked Posina's interest in the power and influence of fashion. She also published biographies of leaders such as Nina Ritchie in 1988, Christian Dior in 1994, and Paul Ricard in 1996, as well as the founder of the beverage group Polaroliga. In 1996, her work on Dior published in the United States achieved international success, and she herself became a popular luxury and fashion speaker. In addition, she also teaches Master of Business Administration and luxury brand related courses at the top Essex Business School in France. Boccina was born in France and received education there. After graduating with a law major at the University of Paris, she joined Coudert Brothers, an international law firm based in Paris and New York. In order to follow her husband's career, she gave up the law and had the opportunity to travel extensively to Europe and the Middle East with her family. During this period, she established rich interpersonal connections and decided to become an investigative journalist. During her two years living in Italy, she was fortunate enough to have personal contact with Giovanni Agnelli, who was still a playboy at a young age and is now one of the most influential figures in Italian industry. After interviewing Giovanni Agnelli, Posina wrote Agnelli, The Irresistible, which is a bestseller in Italy and France. She once told Vogue magazine that everything I write in the book is about my time. I am interested in the background, the company, and the interaction between the people behind the company.
