Kane gets new CEO... We get excited
With this morning's announcement that Christopher Kane has a new CEO comes further glorious speculation about exactly how HUGE this label is going to become.
Already acclaimed even before the luxury body Kering invested in a 51 per cent stake last January, Kane's collections are getting bigger and even better; there are plans for a London flagship next year, and talk of a new accessories line too. So welcome, Alexandre de Brettes, who will no doubt be part of the expansion of one of our firm favourites.
Last season in London, Kane's show expanded from the standard 30 looks to 60 in a flurry of creativity and immense capability. This latest appointment is surely an indication of further expansion behind the scenes – and if that means more for us to feast our eyes on front-of-house, well that's no bad thing, is it?
