What’s going on in the fashion industry?
by Gabriel Córdoba Acosta
This question is one of the most repeated nowadays, and although the sector has always been considered one of the most volatile, the truth is that for some time now, the saying that nothing is forever has taken on its full meaning, as every now and then new departures and incorporations of the Creative Directors of the different fashion houses and firms are announced, such as the departure of John Galliano from Maison Margiela, Mathieu Blazy’s exit from Bottega Venetta and consequently his arrival at Chanel, or the incorporation of Louise Trotter to the aforementioned Italian fashion house, among others.

Related to that, one of the most long-standing speculations is that of designer Jonathan Anderson, who so far continues to work as Creative Director of the Spanish fashion house Loewe, but apparently only for a short time, as it seems that the British designer is about to leave after ten years to start a new journey in the French fashion house Dior – also belonging to the most important luxury brand conglomerate in the world LVMH – and be succeeded by the duo of designers formed by Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez, Co-founders and Creative Directors of the New York-based women’s fashion and accessories brand Proenza Schouler.
If all this is true, it would be a big revolution in the industry, and not only because of the hundreds of thousands of detractors that Jonathan has, but also because of the revered and hated (in the best sense of the word) by many Maria Grazia Chiuri and Kim Jones, Creative Directors of the women’s and men’s fashion lines respectively of the Maison par excellence, would lose their positions, as well as Sabato De Sarno, who it seems will be replaced after two years at the creative helm of the Italian house Gucci by Hedi Slimane, the last Creative Director of Celine.
The fashion industry has become like the Hunger Games, every day something happens and there can only be one survivor. Let’s see how all the events unfold and what will be confirmed.
