Here's everything you need to know about today's major announcement.
Breaking news out of Milan this morning as former Calvin Klein designer Raf Simons has been named as co-creative director at Prada.to reimagine its 1460 boot – is to work alongside Miuccia Prada “with equal responsibilities for creative input and decision making.” He begins his new post on April 2, and the pair’s first co-designed collection will debut at MFW in September. Simons’ will continue to run his namesake menswear line concurrently.
Simons has had a long-standing relationship with Prada herself and with the Prada Group – in 2005, they named him as creative director of Jil Sander. And it is expected that this partnership will be ongoing indefinitely with Prada answering, “In theory, it’s forever,” when asked about the length of Simons’ contract with the house. She simultaneously dismissed rumours of an imminent retirement though this move has been viewed by many as the first step in securing the brand’s future post-Prada.
It’s also a somewhat unprecedented move for someone as established as Prada to bring in a second name – though we suspect this is going to be one heck of a dynamite pairing. Bring on September.
