JESSICA TURKMAN

Passionate about fashion and design from a very early age, Jessica Turkman has been creating and manufacturing for as long as she can remember. This young Marseillaise winner of the M Major 2014-15 competition founded her high-fashion jewelry design company under the name "Gwapita", in 2012.

To get started, she presented her prototypes in Aix-en-Provence at "SO", which immediately marketed her products. She was soon spotted by Le Printemps in La Valentine and many other boutiques.

In 2015, the brand had over 100 points of sale in France and abroad.
