Creative Director of Italian luxury label Salvatore Ferragamo, Massimiliano Giornetti is stepping down from his post after 16 years of being associated with the brand. He joined the company in 2000 as a menswear designer, before taking over the role of Creative Director in 2011.
Commenting on the departure of Giornetti, Michele Norsa, CEO of Salvatore Ferragamo said, “Over the years, the company has discovered and supported so many young talents and today can count on an excellent in-house creative team. We’ll seize this opportunity to revisit our approach to creativity.” Replacement of Giornetti is yet to be announced; Ferragamo’s in-house team will continue designing for the brand at the moment.
