Ruffieux hails from Christian Dior, where he has been for nearly 10 years, most recently as head designer of the women's ready-to-wear collections and couture studios. He also took the helm, alongside Lucie Meier, in between the departure of Raf Simons and the arrival of Maria Grazia Chiuri. His new position at Carven will be the first time he has taken the spotlight on his own.
"I am thrilled to embrace my new creative role at Carven, feeling a real affinity for Madame Carven and her vision of fashion," he said following the announcement today. "I look forward and am very honoured to be leading the creative direction of the house as it enters a new chapter."
He will officially join the fashion house on February 1, with his first collection debuting for resort 2018. His first Carven catwalk show will take place this October during the spring/summer 2018 Paris Fashion Week showcase. The brand said today that he would be overseeing "a new stage of growth and development of the house".
"It is with great pleasure that I welcome Serge Ruffieux as the new creative director of Carven," said CEO Sophie de Rougemont. "His innate sense of modernity married to his impeccable and exacting couture techniques are in absolute synchronicity with Carven's fabled heritage of Parisian chic and effortless elegance."
