Clare Waight Keller to Depart Givenchy
Author:Tyler McCallUpdated:Apr 10, 2020Original:Apr 10, 2020Clare Waight Keller is leaving Givenchy, the designer confirmed in an Instagram post on Friday. A replacement has not yet been named.
"After three truly wonderful years, the time has come to close my chapter at Givenchy," Waight Keller wrote in her post. "As the first woman to be the Artistic Director of this legendary Maison, I feel honoured to have been given the opportunity to cherish its legacy and bring it new life." "It is truly an honor to have been given the opportunity to collaborate with Meghan Markle on such a remarkable occasion," Waight Keller said at the time. "It has been an immensely rewarding experience to get to know Meghan on a personal level, one I will forever carry with me." Indeed, the then-pregnant Duchess of Sussex made a surprise appearance at the 2018 British Fashion Awards to present her with the British Womenswear Designer of the Year Award.
The Fall 2020 collection will be her final for the French house. WWD reports that, given current circumstances caused by the Covid-19 crisis, Givenchy has canceled its pre-spring collection and will not go forward with a Fall 2020 couture collection.
