Céline Changes Creative Team

After seven years as creative director of Céline, Hedi Slimane has left the brand. Céline's owner, luxury group LVMH, has already named his successor: Michael Ryder.

French designer and photographer Hedi Slimane was appointed artistic, creative and image director of Celine in February 2018, following the departure of Phoebe Philo. He previously worked at Yves Saint Laurent and Dior.

At Celine, he turned heads from the start by dropping the apostrophe above the “e” in the Céline name and unveiling a new logo before his first show. He also introduced a menswear line to Celine, as well as fragrances and cosmetics. During his tenure, the brand’s sales grew from just under €1 billion to €2,6 billion by 2023, making it LVMH’s third-largest fashion brand after Louis Vuitton and Dior.

The fashion house’s new creative director, Michael Ryder, was Celine’s director of ready-to-wear design from 2008 to 2018, working under then-creative director Phoebe Philo. A graduate of Brown University in Rhode Island, Ryder also served as a senior designer at Balenciaga from 2004 to 2008, according to his LinkedIn profile.
