Ann Demeulemeester, one of the original Antwerp Six, is leaving her eponymous label.

A new time is coming both for my personal life and the brand ‘Ann Demeulemeester’. I feel it’s time to separate our paths.’Ann Demeulemeester’ is an adult brand now with its own identity and legacy that is able to continue growing without me”. – she wrote.

There is a full team ready in the house, trained by Ann over many years. Nothing will change.” – said the brand owner, Anne Chapelle, to WWD.

The label will show both men’s and women’s collections during Paris Fashion Week on February 27th.
