Another shake-up at a top fashion house: today, after the close of trading in Milan, Salvatore Ferragamo announced the departure of Massimiliano Giornetti. The creative director, who joined the brand in 2000 to launch menswear, was promoted to oversee the women’s collection as well in 2011, succeeding Cristina Ortiz, who later launched her eponymous jewelry brand. Members of the design team will take over Giornetti’s duties for the time being.”We will take this opportunity to revisit our creative approach,” said Michele Norsa, Group CEO, in a statement. “Over time the company has nurtured and sponsored many young designers and is fortunate to be able to count on an excellent in-house team.”
