Date Posted: Friday 1st April 2016
Yves Saint Laurent has announced the departure of Creative and Image Director Hedi Slimane. Since March 2012, under the creative helm of Hedi Slimane, the House has enjoyed a holistic reform that has brought back its utmost modernity and fashion authority, while keeping alive and respecting the original vision of Mr Saint Laurent.
Francesca Bellettini, President and CEO of Yves Saint Laurent, commented: “I would like to thank Hedi Slimane very much for his vision in reforming such an iconic House as Yves Saint Laurent. The direction that has been taken over the last four years represents an incredible foundation for the Brand to build on for its continuous success.”
A new creative organisation for the House will be communicated in due course.
