Armani Exchange Director Out? Page Six reports that designer Patrick Robinson is out of a job as Armani Exchange creative director. Rumors suggest that Robinson was let go weeks ago due to poor sales, but other reports say that his ‘torc’ bracelet came under fire for resembling David Yurman’s cable cuff bracelets. Armani Exchange denies the story, explaining to Page Six that “Patrick Robinson left the brand amicably several weeks ago. His departure and this alleged claim of the Yurman’s sending us a cease-and-desist letter are entirely unrelated.” Before working at Armani Exchange, Robinson had worked at Gap, where he was let go after declining sales.
