Demna Is Gucci's New Creative Director | A New Era

Balenciaga’s creative director since 2015, Demna was recently announced as the new creative lead at Gucci in a statement from Kering group, parent to both houses. “His creative power is exactly what Gucci needs,” said Kering’s chairman and CEO François-Henri Pinault. The 43-year-old Georgian-born designer will oversee his final couture show at Balenciaga on 9 July before decamping to Italy’s largest luxury house, where he will work in partnership with Gucci CEO Stefano Cantino. Demna’s successor at Balenciaga will be named in due course, Kering indicated. “I am truly excited to join the Gucci family,” Demna said in the release: “It is an honour to contribute to a house that I deeply respect and have long admired. I look forward to writing together with Stefano and the whole team a new chapter of Gucci’s amazing story.” Follow me on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/fashionroadman My E-Book: https://www.thefashionarchivemag.com/shop Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fashionroadman Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/30khAeSML8vrmhrbCL86Ca Join My Fashion Discord: https://discord.gg/vW6vMz2eHq Website: https://www.thefashionarchivemag.com/ Social Media: https://linktr.ee/fashionroadman Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVmPyrwjL0wepDhmvgzlOcA/join Donate To The Channel: https://monzo.me/odunayomichaelojo ___________________ MORE INFO Demna was born in Sukhumi, Georgia (the former Soviet Union), on March 25, 1981, to a Georgian father and
