After months of speculation, and following this afternoon’s announcement that Matthieu Blazy was leaving Bottega Veneta, it’s finally official: the French-Belgian designer is the new successor to Virginie Viard.
The news is in: Matthieu Blazy is Chanel’s new Creative Director, landing the most coveted job in fashion. His appointment marked the climax of a chaotic day in the ongoing game of musical chairs among Creative Directors. It began this morning when Louise Trotter announced she was stepping down from Carven, having taken on the role just last year in 2023. Then, Blazy left Bottega Veneta, where he’d been leading the creative direction for the past three years. The position was swiftly taken over by Trotter. And just like that, Blazy became Chanel’s new man.
Karl Lagerfeld’s successor, Virginie Viard, saw her departure from the French Maison announced back in June — and since then, the fashion world has been buzzing with rumours about who would take up the role next. The search went beyond Chanel’s own borders, as Blazy marks the brand’s first external hire since Lagerfeld. Whilst at Bottega, Blazy became one of the most talked-about names in the industry, reviving the Milanese brand’s reputation as a symbol of craftsmanship and, (trigger warning: overused term) quiet luxury. Before Bottega, the 40-year-old designer had stints at Raf Simons and Maison Margiela, as well as working under Phoebe Philo at Celine.
Alain Wertheimer, global executive chairman, and Leena Nair, global CEO of Chanel, said in a joint statement that Blazy is “one of the most gifted designers of his generation,” as reported by Vogue Business. “His vision and talent will reinforce the energy of the brand and our position as a leader in luxury. Under Bruno Pavlovsky’s leadership, we are confident that Matthieu Blazy will continue to shape what’s next and write a new page in Chanel’s creation,” they said. The designer will oversee all haute couture, ready-to-wear, and accessories collections, starting in 2025.
