Discussion: Who Should Be The Creative Director of Chanel?

They were too late but Sarah Burton would have been perfect. just saying it again to annoy her non-beleivers 🤣

I loved Mathieu's Artisanal at Margiela, I like his Bottega, but we are at a point where I think we only have smokescreens, mirages and red herrings to intentionally conceal the chosen one (who, like tourbillions said, is most probably already working in a Chanel collection).

Like all of you, I am [exhausted by/addicted to] this thread 🤣 and that's why I stick to my first intuition, Jeremy Scott (with Hedi as second option).

But I have no clue and, in a way, I like it.

I actually think she is better than most of those rumored ones because she knows how to work for a brand a la Marc Bohan at Dior. She was very underrated because she was always living in the shadow of Lee but somewhat managed to make her McQueen work. She has never been the most exciting choice for any brand (even at Givenchy), but she will be definitely a safe bet for Chanel if they want an interim designer.

At the risk of infuriating some members with idle speculation - and knowing full well it would never happen - how do you all think Tom Ford would fare at Chanel, either in his prime or *gasp*...now?

I would have loved it. But it won't be him. He is out of Leena's budget.
