Jeremy Scott has been appointed as the new creative director of Moschino. Announced earlier in the week, the LA-based designer will present his first collection for the fashion house at Milan Fashion Week, next year.
A spokes woman for the company said: “This appointment respects the DNA of the brand as Jeremy Scott represents not only an eclectic and contemporary communicator but most of all a designer capable of re-interpreting the identity and the essence of Moschino.”
Scott’s appointment marks the end of Rossella Jardini’s 19 years at the company. “Moschino thanks Rossella Jardini for her enormous contribution in keeping the spirit of Moschino alive and at the forefront of fashion from 1994 to the present day,” the spokes woman continued. “Her creativity and tenacity drove the brand on and Rossella Jardini will always remain a crucial part of our history.”
Alongside his new role, the 39 year old will continue to design for his own label, which he launched in 1997.
