Alessandro Michele - Designer, Creative Director of Valentino

wow really???...why? Jacopo Venturini push AM too much or what?.....i don't know if they gonna let go AM....but that strategy(bringing AM to Valentino) didn't work out for sure....

the talks in office is that they are not speaking to each other now, i assume its that they don't have the regular meetings or not seen in same room for a longer than average period.

both are diva´s and both have strong ideas and that was the clash as well at gucci as Venturini left .
Venturini is a prada school guy so has vision on collections product windows etc much like bertelli he needs the creative to set the tone and he then tweaks things to fit market commercial needs in his vision .
he would launch collections parallel to AM big collections and AM got pissed after a while is the short story.

its also happening again at gucci Cantino is also a prada guy and control and power is key, he is over seeing also the collections development they told me, normally a ceo or president see the start and the end result with not much pushing back comments or guidance more advising on the business needs and etc


funny both companies have gay ceo `s and cd´s its going to be dramatic lol

Do you think the CEO might get rid of him? Surely too early??? But if sales are bad and the air is toxic then…
