There are more changes ahead for LVMH. After his departure from Dior Homme, designer Kris Van Assche joins Berluti. As the fashion house’s new artistic director, Van Assche presents his first collection for the label January 2019 as part of Paris Fashion Week. Antoine Arnault notes, I am delighted to welcome Kris Van Assche to Berluti. I have known him for several years, have always admired his work at Dior Homme and I am looking forward to working with him.

Meanwhile, Van Assche shares, I have always wanted to build bridges between the savoir-faire, the heritage of a house and my clear-cut contemporary vision. The Belgian designer continues, Antoine Arnault spoke to me of his ambitions for Berluti and it is with great pleasure that I accept this new challenge which fits perfectly with my own will and vision. I would also like to thank Mr. Bernard Arnault for his renewed confidence.
