Folks seem to be deserting Ungaro faster than rats from a sinking ship. In the last six months we’ve already seen Lindsay Lohan lose her artistic director post and Mounir Moufarrige step down as chief executive officer. Now we can add creative director Estrella Archs to the list.
The designer, who worked for Ungaro for just two seasons, has cited “irreconcilable differences related to the creative direction of the brand.“
But don’t think this is the last we’ll see of Estrella. She will continue to develop the brand she established in 2007. We’ll see her latest collection at the Paris Fashion Week.
As for her replacement, early rumors suggest that Giles Deacon may get the job. How long he’ll stay if he does accept the position is anybody’s guess! The French fashion house has gone through four creative directors in the last five years after all!
