One of the greatest current talents, he will inspire and propel into the 21st century the style carried on by Dior maison since its creation in 1946.
- Maison Dior statement
Raf Simons has been announced as the new artistic director at Dior.
Rumours were obviously already circulating.
Appointed in 2005 as creative director at Jil Sander, his last three collections for the minimalist brand hinted at the designer's interest in couture shapes and mid-century modernist designs - the period when the Dior brand was founded.
How Simons will translate his own vision for Dior will doubtless be the top question at the show.
His debut collection will be during couture fashion week in Paris in July.
