Gindi is EVP and Chief Marketing Officer of Gina Group, the privately held New York fashion, lifestyle and branding company founded in 1985 that designs, licenses, manufactures and distributes products across hosiery, footwear, handbags, small leather goods, fashion accessories, athletic and wellness, gourmet foods and, since 2025, pet.

Krista Mullen
Krista Fraioli Mullen is Chief Marketing Officer of Eleventy USA, LLC, the New York arm of the Milan-founded 'smart luxury' label Eleventy. She spent more than a decade at Harry Winston, climbing from US marketing coordinator to Director of US Marketing & Public Relations, learning to sell objects whose price is rarely printed. Educated in public relations at Hofstra University, she began her career in business development at Tangram International Exhibitions before moving into jewelry. At Eleventy she works on the American side of a brand that counts the United States as its largest market, roughly 45 percent of a business that reached about 125 million euros in 2025. Her public footprint is deliberately thin: one LinkedIn profile, no personal Instagram, no manifesto. In an industry that mistakes volume for influence, that is its own kind of statement.
Shaye Vercollone
Shaye Vercollone is a New York-based brand marketing leader who became Chief Marketing Officer of TWP, the womenswear label founded by Trish Wescoat Pound. She built a career at the sharp end of luxury fashion marketing, holding senior brand, communications, and social strategy roles at Helmut Lang and Theory before a run as an independent brand marketing consultant. Her work sits at the intersection of storytelling, social, and the quiet, menswear-inspired tailoring that defines TWP.
