Over the past year, the fashion world has undergone an unprecedented wave of change. The reason? A rapid succession of new creative directors<\/strong> at the head of major luxury houses. And all at a frantic pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It all began in March 2024, when Pierpaolo Piccioli<\/a> <\/strong>left Valentino<\/strong> after 25 years of loyal service. His departure marked the beginning of what is now referred to as the “fashion mercato<\/em>“. A term borrowed from the world of football and its transfer markets of professional players between clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no doubt that this major turnover<\/strong> will have a lasting impact on the luxury industry, both on strategic and creative levels. From Versace<\/strong> to Gucci<\/strong>, Balenciaga<\/strong> and Proenza Schouler<\/strong>, Num\u00e9ro<\/em> takes a closer look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New artistic directors in 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pieter Mulier takes the reins at Versace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Trained in design and architecture, Pieter Mulier<\/strong> has established himself as one of the most thorough designers of his generation. Raf Simons<\/strong>‘ right-hand man for some time, now at Prada, the designer worked alongside him at Jil Sander<\/strong>, Christian Dior<\/strong> and Calvin Klein<\/strong>. There he would shape a precise, intellectual and deeply relevant aesthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, he succeeded Azzedine Ala\u00efa<\/strong>, becoming the first artistic director of the house of Ala\u00efa<\/strong>. For four years, he reignited the brand\u2019s legacy through a sculptural femininity, free from nostalgia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the start of this year, following the acquisition of Versace, Prada<\/strong> announced his appointment as Chief Creative Officer<\/strong>. A new creative chapter, set to bring together Italian glamour and Belgian rigor, and one we are eager to discover. Keep in mind that Dario Vitale<\/strong>, who joined the Italian house in 2025, only stayed for one season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designer Rachel Scott<\/strong>, founder of the New York-based label Diotima<\/strong>, was officially appointed creative director at Proenza Schouler<\/strong><\/a> on September 2nd, 2025. She succeeds founders Jack McCollough<\/strong> and Lazaro Hernandez<\/strong>, who left the house earlier this year to join Loewe<\/strong> after Jonathan Anderson<\/strong>\u2019s appointment at Dior. Rachel Scott<\/strong>\u2019s first show as new artistic director of the house will take place in February 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s been a busy year, or more precisely, a busy month of July for Meryll Rogge<\/strong>. Just a few weeks after winning the 2025 ANDAM Grand Prize<\/strong> with her brand, the Belgian designer has just been named as the new creative director of Marni<\/strong>. The former student of the prestigious Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and trainee in Marc Jacobs\u2019 ateliers succeeds Francesco Risso<\/strong> (appointed since 2018), thus opening an entirely new chapter in her already rich career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Departures and arrivals at Mugler<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While rumors of a major change at Mugler<\/strong> had been spreading for several weeks, it is now official. On March 25th, the fashion and fragrance brand owned by L’Or\u00e9al announced both a departure and a new arrival. The American designer Casey Cadwallader<\/a><\/strong>, appointed in 2017, is stepping down and will be replaced by Miguel Castro Freitas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though little known to the public, the Portuguese designer has an impressive background. First at Dior<\/strong> with John Galliano<\/strong>, then at Yves Saint Laurent<\/strong> with Stefano Pilati<\/strong>, and at Lanvin<\/strong> with Alber Elbaz<\/strong>. Returning to Dior during Raf Simons<\/strong>\u2019 tenure, he focused on tailoring, before joining Dries Van Noten<\/strong> as head of the women\u2019s collections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loewe entrusts Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Just a week after Jonathan Anderson<\/strong>\u2019s departure was made official, Loewe had already revealed the names of his successors last March – Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez<\/a>. The two pioneers of New York fashion became known through their label Proenza Schouler<\/strong>, founded in 2002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With their minimalist style and reputation as brainy, cool designers, Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez have won over the whole industry. Now that they are no longer the creative directors of their own brand, they have to face the daunting task of succeeding one of the greatest designers of their generation\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jonathan Anderson leaves Loewe for Dior<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rumours had been spreading for several months. After eleven years as creative director at Loewe<\/a>, Irish designer Jonathan Anderson<\/a> was said to be about to step down. That has now been confirmed. On March 17th, 2025, the Spanish house announced in a press release that the former London College of Fashion<\/strong> student was leaving that position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this June, the French house Dior<\/a><\/strong> revealed that he would be taking over the men\u2019s, women\u2019s, and couture collections and succeed Kim Jones<\/a> <\/strong>and Maria Grazia Chiuri<\/a>. After their departure from their New York label Proenza Schouler<\/strong>, which they founded in 2002, Jack McCollough<\/strong> and Lazaro Hernandez<\/strong> are now expected to succeed Jonathan Anderson<\/strong> at Loewe<\/strong>\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Donatella<\/a>\u2019s departure from Versace<\/strong> sent shock waves through the fashion world, Demna<\/a>‘s appointment as creative director at Gucci<\/strong>, announced on March 13th, also raised many questions. Why would the Georgian designer leave his position to join the equally prestigious Italian house?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following Sabato de Sarn<\/a>o<\/a>\u2019<\/strong>s departure from Gucci<\/strong> last February, the studio stepped in to present a successful transitional collection<\/a> at Milan Fashion Week. A few weeks later, in May, Balenciaga<\/a><\/strong> announced the arrival of Pierpaolo Piccioli<\/a><\/strong>, who had been replaced earlier this year by Alessandro Michele<\/strong> at Valentino<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a few day after presenting her Versace Fall-Winter 2025-2026 collection<\/a><\/strong> revisiting the golden age of the house in Milan, Donatella Versace<\/strong><\/a> bowed out. After three decades of highly-scrutinized designs and runway shows, the famous Italian designer is handing over Versace<\/strong>‘s artistic direction to designer Dario Vitale<\/strong>, who earned his spurs at Dsquared2<\/a><\/strong> and Bottega Veneta<\/a><\/strong>, before joining Miu Miu<\/a><\/strong> in 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An appointment that makes sense when we know that Prada, <\/a><\/strong>which owns Miu Miu, is about to finalize the acquisition of Versace<\/strong> from the Capri holdings<\/em> group for 1.5 billion euros. In a press release published on March 13th, 2025, Donatella Versace<\/a><\/strong> announced that she would now be chief ambassador of the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In June 2024, Virginie Viard<\/a> \u2013 who succeeded Karl Lagerfeld’s<\/a> twenty-year reign \u2013 announced her departure from the Chanel ateliers. Six months of speculation and hopes followed around the name of the person who would accept the heavy inheritance of the French house. And it was finally last December that Matthieu Blazy<\/a> was officially appointed as the new artistic director, in parallel with the announcement of his departure from Bottega Veneta<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After 26 years at Alexander McQueen<\/a><\/strong> – including 14 years alongside its late founder – Sarah Burton<\/a><\/strong> said goodbye to the British house in September 2023. A year after Naomi Campbell shed tears during her last show<\/a>, the designer unveiled her appointment as artistic director of Givenchy in September, succeeding Matthew Williams<\/a><\/strong>. On the occasion of the highly anticipated Fall-Winter 2025-2026 Paris Fashion Week<\/a>, she presented a sumptuous and promising first show<\/a> …<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If rumors are multiplying around potential departures and arrivals within the biggest fashion houses, Kim Jones<\/a> ‘ exit from the Dior men’s<\/a> studio came as a surprise. Unveiled last January, the announcement comes a few days after her last show<\/a> for the house. In office since 2018, the British designer<\/strong> has been leaving a lasting imprint on the brand’s identity, and has not yet announced the next workshops he could join…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A discreet figure in the fashion world, Louise Trotter<\/a> is nevertheless one of the most talented fashion designers of her generation. After relaunching the Lacoste<\/a> brand between 2018 and 2023, then resurrecting the Carven<\/a> house from 2023 to 2024, the Briton is preparing to take over the reins of Bottega Veneta, succeeding Matthieu Blazy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the head of their label Proenza Schouler<\/a> since its creation in 2002, Jack McCollough<\/strong> and Lazaro Hernandez <\/strong>announced their departure in January 2025. A rare longevity in the world of fashion, especially when it comes to the founding designers of a house. That situation puts a question mark over the future of the New York brand. As for the duo, rumours suggest a possible appointment at Loewe<\/a>…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While he has shone as the artistic director of Y\/Project<\/a> since 2013, and more recently through his acclaimed collections for Diesel<\/strong> since 2020, Glenn Martens<\/a> recently bowed out. Weeks after his departure, the first brand announced it would be closing its doors, while the designer officially continued to work for the second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like some of the greatest designers, such as Karl Lagerfeld<\/a> and Raf Simons<\/a>, the Belgian designer is now dividing his time between several prestigious houses. And most notably at Maison Margiela<\/a> as the new creative director of the house. A daunting task, especially following John Galliano<\/a>\u2019s departure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He spent only two years at the head of Gucci’s<\/a> men’s and women’s collections.

A surprising and hasty decision, which comes shortly after the departure of Alessandro Michele<\/strong><\/a> in 2022, and the long year of beating and speculation that followed. While we don’t know for the moment where the Neapolitan designer is about to hoist the sails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The appointment of designer Mark Thomas<\/a> at Carven<\/strong> has brought the brand back to the heart of the Paris Fashion Week<\/a>. Although it did not appear on last season’s calendar after Louise Trotter<\/strong>\u2019s departure, that news allowed it to stay in the spotlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few hours after the Jil Sander Fall\/Winter 2025\u20132026<\/a><\/strong> show unveiled in Milan about ten days ago, Lucie and Luke Meier<\/strong> announced their departure as artistic directors. A position that they had held since 2017. Their collection was imbued with a strong sense of nostalgia, leaving the brand\u2019s future up in the air\u2026 Until March 10th, 2025. That day, Simone Bellotti<\/a><\/strong>‘s arrival was made official. The latter had previously worked at Dolce & Gabbana<\/a><\/strong>, Bottega Veneta<\/a><\/strong>, and Gucci<\/a> <\/strong>for over 15 years.
