As many of you in the fashion world remember from last year, John Galliano, then Artistic Director at Dior fashion house, was fired for Anti-Semitic remarks he made. This was a huge shock, and naturally he was immediately removed from his position. From that point up until now, there was much speculation as to who would succeed him as the chair for the Paris fashion house. Marc Jacobs was in questions for some time, as well as the man who has now officially been named as the new Artistic Director, Raf Simons.
Simons’ own private label is madly successful, and has received even more spotlight from the mainstream fashion and streetwear world after mentions from rapper A$AP Rocky. Raf Simons also has been doing some great work with Jil Sander over the last couple of years. It will be an exciting coming year with Simons as the head of Dior. Look forward to updates from us on where he takes the brand with his vision! Simons’ Dior debut will be the fall collection which will be unveiled in June.
