Right Call?
After a slew of not-so-positive feedback involving his latest collections, it is rumoured that Givenchy Creative Director Matthew M. Williams could be set to be replaced by Simon Porte Jacquemus – of his eponymous brand Jacquemus – at some point in the future.
With the recent disappointment involving Givenchy’s FW23′ range, which failed to flatter for many, Creative Director Matthew M. Williams has had a difficult time of late as many in the fashion industry begin to question his role at the luxury French fashion house, whilst Jacquemus’ own brand has alternatively been making waves both on and offline and is expected to be continually popular throughout this upcoming SS23′ period. Whilst conflicting information around his appointment has cropped up online, with nothing having been totally decided, it is known that LVMH and those at Givenchy are admirers of Jacquemus and his various assets, of which include his ability to maintain lower luxury prices and his immaculate eye for marketing, as seen recently with the sending of giant car-like Jacquemus Chiquito handbags down the streets of Paris. This potential appointment – if it were to go ahead – would also most likely see Jacquemus take on two brands at the same time, with this having historically been a difficult feat.
No official information regarding this appointment has been unveiled as of yet, but stay tuned to PAUSE for more information as it arrives and let us know what you think about this potential Givenchy rearrange below.
