Tisci for Chanel would be fire. I hope they choose him.

I'm still loving interpreting almost everything other designers do lately as stealth auditions for Chanel, even though the likelihood of that is probably slim. I'll be sad when Chanel actually appoints someone, I think.maybe tiscis priority is chanel? he recently directed a photoshoot with chanel as the front cover. it was screaming "hire me".
I have opposite intel on this as the CEO then said internally to not want or looking for a person that does not respect work life balance and has nasty approach to teams because the rumour was then that riccardo was coming ...at various brands studio teams and hr know how Riccardo works the guy has a party substance reputation that interferes with normal day to day working conditions,... people sleeping in office till he is ready to proceed is not the worst thing i got to know from one friend that left working with him.....I am 90% sure Riccardo Tisci have been asked and declined. But ofc that was 20 months ago so now ?
unfortunately if they want a top creative person... they always come with as much cons as pros. Otherwise they will always be left with middle of the ground designer who they will pray somehoe makes 1 hit in their lifetime or atleast to flatline sales.I have opposite intel on this as the CEO then said internally to not want or looking for a person that does not respect work life balance and has nasty approach to teams because the rumour was then that riccardo was coming ...at various brands studio teams and hr know how Riccardo works the guy has a party substance reputation that interferes with normal day to day working conditions,... people sleeping in office till he is ready to proceed is not the worst thing i got to know from one friend that left working with him.....
I think RT is suffering from overdesign most visible at Burberry and his vision is too dark coded for a brand like Gucci now as they sell to mom´s and people just wanting a wardrobe to dress for all occasions life style like LV.Yeah I don’t think we should view things in terms of « creative prime » anymore. We should view things in terms of challenge, aesthetic and capacity to lead.
That’s why it’s so important for a brand to have strong codes, staples that are there forever and that makes the whole thing interesting.
I don’t think Chanel by Karl would have been that great if Chanel wasn’t that restrictive in a way. Yes, ultimately, Karl made it his own, totally changed it to what it was (even down to his color palette which in the 2010’s was restricted to black, white, navy and baby colors) but there was a frame.
I think that Gucci has to be totally rethinked.
For me, when you are a talent like Riccardo, there’s nothing you can’t do. But you have to be surrounded by the right team and have the best vision.
And in terms of commercial HF, he can do it. His Givenchy was for the most part black and white and Women loved it.
I think the accessories line, the luggages, everything needs to be redone for this brand.
Tbh, you couldn’t do worse than Ancora now.
There is a line that should not be crossed, Hermes people leave on time home and the are doing well, also at other huge brands that are big with successful CD i know people they have good life and work balance & it's not like this.unfortunately if they want a top creative person... they always come with as much cons as pros. Otherwise they will always be left with middle of the ground designer who they will pray somehow makes 1 hit in their lifetime or atleast to flatline sales.
omg i just remember this bag its by Frida for gucci eraView attachment 1291418

This is the first product you see on the website.
A bag that shows the plastic cord inside the handle that costs 3500USD.
It is so unpolished and cheap. Gosh Gucci, I don't blame the numbers at all.
