DAVIDE RENNE APPOINTED CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF MOSCHINO
Aeffe S.p.A has announced the appointment of Davide Renne as the new creative director of Moschino. In his new role Davide – who has designed women’s collections for two decades at Gucci – will oversee women’s, men’s, and accessories for the Moschino line, reporting to Massimo Ferretti, Executive Chairman of Aeffe SpA. Davide will officially assume the role on November 1, 2023. His first collection will debut for Fall/Winter 24-25 during February’s 2024 Milan Fashion Week.
“Today we welcome Davide to the Moschino family,” says Ferretti. “We have all been impressed by Davide’s extremely sophisticated vision of fashion’s power to create a living dialogue with the world around us, and by his deep understanding of the House of Moschino’s legacy and our codes. He is a brilliant designer and a special human being: Franco used to say that bad manners are the only true bad taste, and getting to know Davide I have been struck not only by his obvious talent but by his kindness, his sensibility. We are confident that he will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Moschino, a global House with an Italian heart and a truly unique DNA in the luxury industry.”
“Franco Moschino had a nickname for his design studio: la sala giochi – the playroom. This resonates deeply with me: what fashion – Italian fashion especially, and the House of Moschino most of all can achieve with its enormous power should be accomplished with a sense of play, of joy. A sense of discovery, and experimentation” says Renne. “I am very conscious of the honor that Mr. Ferretti – a gentleman who has been almost fatherly in his ability to listen and establish a dialogue during our encounters – has bestowed upon me in taking charge of the House founded by one of fashion’s great minds. So, thank you Mr. Ferretti for giving me the keys to your playroom. I can’t wait to begin – we’ll have fun. Together”.
