Designers Switching Houses & Moving to New Brands

[Thefrenchy]

So who's left in the musical chair game? JWA at Dior is a done deal apparently, so one wonders who will be chosen for Loewe. Very curious as to where Daniel Lee is going to end up, as from what I'm told, JS is not an option anymore...

How to stop JWA going to Dior?? Don't want Raf 2.0

 

[LadyJunon]

Fendi is just going to have to take one for the team because we have suffered MGC for far too long. Maybe it is a way to unload her. I hope her contract at Fendi will be SHORT and she retires. Good riddance !

It's karma for hiring her back in 1989. They created the monster, now they have to deal with it.

So the question will be: No position for PPP?

I must say that for me, Fendi needs a strong fashion POV because any new CD is not going to come and design the bags. That’s Silvia’s job. However they needs a strong and creative or at least loud voice to allow for more creative accessories.

All those Karl’s archives are going to waste.

You can’t stop him. Delphine chose him for Loewe. He delivered and it’s only fair for them to work in tandem at Dior.

 

[TianCouture]

so like, where is John going? Back to John?

 

[TomBlanksFullFatMiuMiu]

I rather have John going back to Dior my wishful thinking

Gucci for ppp? or ppp for Ferragamo?....i want sabato out fast fast.....

 

[Salvatore]

The shock that John going back to Dior would cause would be incredible and I just want to experience that, not necessarily have him design there ... unless he gives us Dior HC 97 at even higher wattage.

Going from Valentino to Ferragamo? I mean…It doesn’t look like the idealistic trajectory.

I think Sabato will be out after the end of his contract unless if the results haven’t improved this year. I don’t think he was expensive anyway so KERING wouldn’t care spending the extra money to prematurely end his contract.

1 year of performance is not enough to judge a commercial performance but the fact that there’s no dynamic makes it difficult for Sabato.

Nooo! 😭 Karl's Fendi deserves better than this.

 

[Lola701]

Nooo! 😭 Karl's Fendi deserves better than this.

She will make Karl regret to have ever created that FF logo.
The way that she milked every logos designed by Bohan is almost hilarious.

Maybe not in the expected way but it's an opportunity to turnaround the brand....

I don;t know if Gucci want him....he was interviewed before right? ....

What are the other options for him then?...

Nowhere. He is one of the few who should retire.

 

[fenty]

At least Fendi will be all female-led! This is me being positive

 

[PDFSD]

So his right hand also left? (who is it btw?)

She is staying at miu miu francesca and should be taking over from him what i understood .............she been there at as well over 10 years grew up in the role as other left and came back lol

there where even on vacation together like always this xmas .......they are like velcro was always the notion... so maybe she will jump ship but normally you can't ask other people to come with you like this contractually.

 

[Mrs.T]

My god, MGC going to Fendi is not good at all lol.
I think at this point I will just give up on the brand and maybe only buy Silvia’s collection as a farewell.

Seriously Marcia Grace going to Fendi?? She gonna do the same thing all over again. That lady is like CTRL+C and CTRL+V, with minor changes. At least she's gonna be slightly better than whatever his name was

 

[Kimihiro]

With how beige Fendi is these days and how MGC is, it’s a perfect match in hell. IT WOULD SELL!

 

[tourbillions]

maybe mgc is short term plan for fendi just to get them back up before hiring someone a bit more experimental and fashion forward

 

[JohannesL]

If the rumor of Maria Grazia is true, it will be another feminist's ultimate dream at Fendiorentino with tons of Greco-Roman dresses on the road.

 

[Salvatore]

Hummmmm .... Christian Lacroix has been acquired by a Spanish company. This opens up a new house potentially. To toss the common names to get them out of the way ... Galliano or PPP ?
