Alber Elbaz is leaving Lanvin after 14 years as its creative director. A Lanvin spokeswoman subsequently confirmed his exit as the house prepared an official statement for release later tonight or Friday.
The departure comes less than a week after Raf Simons quit Christian Dior and will add to industry speculation that Elbaz might be seeking to take over at another of France’s biggest fashion names.

What a week indeed ! Elbaz’s departure feels really sudden and unexpected. Many people think he will take the lead at Dior, and I think it would be a great choice. Can’t wait to see the end of the story.
