Hedi Slimane - Designer

Hedi at Kering? The people he sued because they tried to be sneaky about his money?
Never!
One thing about someone who got standards, they would never made that mistake again.

Heidi's Celine was never one of the brands I "fangirled" but I still find this departure a shame.

It's a rare moment of optimism in this industry to see a brand raised in the quality of its clothes, creative cohesion, and name value, when new CDs coming in and totally botching brands has become the news of the day.

That being said, I hope (however unlikely it is) Slimane does go to some heritage brand being horribly mismanaged, like a Chanel or Dior. Yes, he'll undoubtedly leave the label high and dry whenever suits him, but with the state of many brands right now, his direction for even a few years couldn't hurt

My dream? He packs up shop. He’s close to retirement age now anyway, is trying to remake yet another brand in his image really an exciting venture at this point? He can photograph youths as a hobby or something. Or he can follow in Phoebe’s footsteps and do his own line by his own rules that’ll sell well to his many fans.

Ready for the Chaneline era 😎

All I can think is where poor Volft is going to buy his clothes now...😢😢😢

People, people — isn’t it obvious? There’s a house that’s rumored to be losing a creative director, and a creative director in search of a house. It’s kismet: Hedi Slimane for Maison Margiela!

Ok… actually…. 🤔

I was looking at the last collection Hedi did for SL and honestly I'm getting excited at the idea of Chanel by HEDI. He can do glamour, he can embellish the clothes and keep it all practical.

Chanel is not a house of radical shapes, you just need to make a little something each season like Karl did.

Chanel, Chanel, Chanel — you all have such narrow minds. There are so many possibilities. Who says the brand even has to be active? There are lots of fashion houses waiting to be Slimaned!

One of the hottest brands now — Loewe — was seen as hopelessly passé and irrelevant just a decade ago. Less than twenty years ago, Celine was ignored by the fashionable set, and Balenciaga had long been closed. Pierre Cardin was licensed to cheaply made discount store goods, Mugler was reduced to a perfume line, and Courrèges was a footnote in fashion history books. So again, why limit one’s sights to the list of usual big names like Chanel and Dior?

There are many houses and brands that were once major players that are now barely around, just waiting for a renewal:

• Aquascutum
• Byblos
• Cacharel
• Nino Cerruti
• Costume National
• Escada
• Louis Féraud
• Romeo Gigli
• Krizia
• Guy Laroche
• Léonard
• Pringle
• Trussardi

And there are plenty of dead houses to be revived out there. If Schiaparelli can rise like Lazarus, why not one of these?

• Oleg Cassini
• Jacques Fath
• Gianfranco Ferré
• Grès
• Ted Lapidus
• Lucien Lelong
• Claude Montana
• Hanae Mori
• Paul Poiret
• Sonia Rykiel
• Jean-Louis Scherrer
• Torrente
• Vionnet

What if… Hedi goes to Karl Lagerfeld? It is in need of some elevation!
