Raf Simons Has Quit Dior
By SENATUS News | 23 October 2015

Raf Simons has parted ways with Dior after three and a half years at the helm as creative director of womenswear. Citing personal reasons as his reasons for departure, the French luxury label also announced that the recent Spring/Summer 2016 collection was the Belgian designer's last for the House.

In a statement, Simons, 47, added “It is a decision based entirely and equally on my desire to focus on other interests in my life, including my own brand, and the passions that drive me outside my work."

"Christian Dior is an extraordinary company, and it has been an immense privilege to write a few pages of this magnificent book. I want to thank Mr. Bernard Arnault for the trust he has put in me, giving me the incredible opportunity to work at this beautiful house surrounded by the most amazing team one could ever dream of. I have also had the chance over the last few years to benefit from the leadership of Sidney Toledano. His thoughtful, heartfelt and inspired management will also remain as one of the most important experiences of my professional career."
