Charbit joins the brand from Yves Saint Laurent, where he was executive vice president of product and marketing. "As CEO of Balenciaga, he will support the development of the house and further accelerate its international growth," read a statement released last night.
Guichot has been at the helm of Balenciaga for nine years, during which time she "made a fundamental contribution to its growth and reputation on a global scale," praised the brand, which confirmed that her next role within the Kering group will be announced shortly.
The brand welcomes Charbit a year after it appointed a new creative director. Vetements designer Demna Gvasalia replaced Alexander Wang last October, and has garnered favourable reviews for the collections that he has delivered since.
