PARIS (Reuters) – LVMH label Loewe said on Monday that creative director Jonathan Anderson was leaving the Spanish luxury house after 11 years in the role.
Its statement did not say who was taking over from the British designer or where he was going, though some media outlets, including Women’s Wear Daily, have reported that he is moving to LVMH’s Dior.
LVMH declined to comment.
The Loewe brand has experienced “exceptional growth” under Anderson’s direction, the statement said.
His move is one of several recent designer changes across major brands in a luxury sector generally experiencing slowing growth.
