"I believe that a fashion magazine has to have strong convictions and values."

GQ France's Head of Editorial Content, Pierre A. M'Pelé, today appeared on the Entreprendre dans la Mode podcast.

During the 110 minute-long episode, M'Pelé discussed his vision for GQ France. "I want to make GQ more sophisticated, I want to talk more about fashion and style because that's the essence of GQ and to make sure that we are the number one destination when it comes to talking to people about fashion, style and luxury," he said on the podcast.

He also discussed his point of view on the fashion industry, the value of print media, as well as the importance of championing diversity.

"A magazine must be able to explain the era of time. It has to reflect today's society," he explained. "I am optimistic, my teams are optimistic, we are all aware that it will be good for both the title and Condé Nast to have people from diverse backgrounds and it will also be good for people to have a true reflection of our diverse society."

M'Pelé also discussed how he got into the industry, and the varied experience he has had so far in his career.
