Chronext CEO Frederike Knop leaves the online watch retailer
The online fashion retailer Fashionette has appointed Frederike Knop to the role of CEO. She will fulfil her new role together with Dominik Benner, CEO of The Platform Group AG.
Benner has managed the company together with Laura Vogelsang since the takeover by the Platform Group and the subsequent establishment of a separate subsidiary for Fashionette.
Knop now succeeds Vogelsang, who will join the company's advisory board in May. However, the designated Managing Director is no stranger to the Platform Group.
She is moving to Fashionette from Chronext GmbH, an online shop for luxury watches that was also acquired by the Group. She was also previously CEO at Chronext. She led the online retailer for pre-owned watches through its insolvency in self-administration until its sale to The Platform Group.
At Inhorgenta 2025, she reported on her experiences in the Watch Talk with Antje Heepmann.
"I'm looking forward to my new role at Fashionette," says Knop.
"I'm at home in the luxury industry, so it's a home game for me. We want to establish Fashionette even more strongly as a luxury platform in the future. This includes massively expanding the number of partners and increasing internationality."
