From the Sunshine Coast to the bright lights of Paris, Mia Levings (Class of 2018) has pursued an ambitious, international pathway in the luxury fashion industry. Relocating to Paris shortly after graduating, Mia completed a Master's degree in Fashion and Luxury Management in 2024.
Her academic studies were complemented by two years of industry-based apprenticeships, which she credits as instrumental in shaping her professional understanding in the industry.
Mia is currently the Business Developer at Louis Vuitton within the Perfume & Beauty division. Her role spans merchandising functions, including sales forecasting, product assortment strategy, and distribution planning across the EMEA region. Having transitioned internally following a year-long apprenticeship, Mia continues to build her expertise in a fast-paced and highly competitive sector.
As a Life Long Learner, Mia attributes her growth to the values instilled during her time at Grammar.
“The values of passion and purpose have stayed with me well beyond school and have helped me make bold, intentional decisions with confidence – like moving across the world at 18!”
Among her cherished memories from her time at Grammar is the Walk of Honour following graduation and acknowledges the lasting influence of her French teachers and Miss Livock, whose encouragement helped foster the confidence to pursue opportunities abroad.
Looking ahead, Mia hopes to continue growing within the luxury sector and is currently working towards French citizenship. Mia’s story reflects the global possibilities available to our Grammar graduates and the enduring impact of a values-driven education.
