Designers Switching Houses & Moving to New Brands

[ellearchivist]

I am more curious about whether JWA managed to ditch Baron to bring M/M at Dior (if confirmed).

I don't think they have been doing Loewe recently... I thought they stopped and it was done in-house?

It has been few years already since M/M didn't work on art direction of Loewe.

I don’t believe it at all. Hedi had a lawsuit with Kering back in the days so potential agreement with Gucci must have been just giving him the total ownership of the brand lol

If Hedi is holding a grudge against Chanel, I can envision him being willing to do anything to outdo them, including working for Gucci lamo

We need Benjamin Bruno at Dior too.
Dior (homme et femme) is a sleeping beauty that needs more than a kiss to wake up: cold water, a couple of slaps and some drugs too.

This boring person is just odious. Also I'm getting a bit "bored" of all these people: Boring / Lauren Sherman / Miss Tweed, always saying they are the first with every scoop for every position. I just want the designer merry go round to calm down so they can all shut up and we can focus on the actual craft of these designers.

also Style, Truss Archives and some others too...it's a competition who got the scoop first. And that makes them reckless and irresponsible, not Style cause he just share press releases...lol...

The only thing i like of those unconfirmed "exclusives" s that it gave us TFS members topics to discuss...

the only thing that unites them is some hideous colourful background / horrid illustration on their posts and in their articles. another one is Glitz who do tasteless investigations in the world of luxury.. yeah right

I must say that after hearing her interview and did some digging myself, I put so much more trust on MissTweed now.
I never really paid that much attention to her wording but indeed, she is either accurate or very cautious.
Lauren is really sometimes verging on the pure gossip. Too much flow of information can hurt too.

JWA at Dior seems like a misstep. Dior is 10x larger than Loewe and has an Haute Couture.

Im really not seeing a future for him at Dior. I think they're bringing him to improve Dior's horrible bag and acccessory line up. I told people around me and they said they're worried he will do Dog bags and clothes again at Dior (remembering his repertoire at Loewe)

So if the women shopping Dior and Loewe who know who JWA is don't see it for him. I definitely dont.

I liked her on the StyleZeitgeist podcast a lot.
