Breaking Rumors | Gareth Pugh in for Dior, Olivier Theyskens Out for Ricci
Grazia is reporting today that Olivier Theyskens has left Nina Ricci! The rumors have been flying around for a couple of months now, but the expectation was that he would at least stick it out till after the F/W 09 fashion shows. According to the British site though, the current buzz is that "Theyskens has officially left Nina Ricci". Reason being of course is that his designs while magical on the runways, dont translate to sales for every day use.
Meanwhile Grazia is also reporting on another rumor that has Dior tapping 27 year old avant-garde designer Gareth Pugh as a consultant for Dior Homme.
This 2nd rumor was born when Delphine Arnault, daughter of LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault was seen front row at the recent Pugh menswear show.
Oh rumors, how fun they coule be!

This post makes allot of since.
