Designer departures at luxury labels

Anthony Vaccarello is reportedly leaving Saint Laurent after a decade leading the brand, though his exit has not been officially confirmed. At Balenciaga, parent company Kering is reportedly reviewing Italian designer Pierpaolo Piccioli following concerns over sales levels. Similarly, Chloe artistic director Chemena Kamali faces pressure due to a lack of profitability since taking the job in 2023.
