Fashion News: RAF SIMONS MOVES TO CALVIN KLEIN


Raf Simons bids Dior farewell


After Raf Simons announced his resignation from his position as Creative Director at Dior in October 2015 (after working there for just 3 and a half years) we couldn't help but wonder where he would go next. It is rumoured that the Belgian fashion designer's choice of leaving the French fashion house was linked with his limited creative control there. 

Yesterday, after approximately 9 months since Raf's departure, Calvin Klein revealed through its social media channels that Raf was appointed as the labels new Chief Creative Officer. The brand discontinued further work with its previous men's and women's creative director in April earlier this year, and has kept it a secret until now who the replacement will be. Earlier in June CK revealed that they weren't yet allowed to reveal the news (due to circumstances involving Simons contract at Dior), but added that "the whole industry knows".
