Nicolas Ghesquière extends his stay at Louis Vuitton

Ten years ago, in November 2013, the then-creative director of Balenciaga Nicolas Ghesquière started his new job as women’s creative director at Louis Vuitton. Today, one of the longest running tenures in fashion has been extended for five more years, which will see Ghesquière matching his fifteen year stint at Balenciaga.
In a statement, Ghesquière said, “It is a true honour to continue writing the story of Louis Vuitton. We began the first chapter ten years ago, defining a new identity based on extraordinary heritage and a constant focus on innovation. In particular, I have had the privilege to harness the talent and expertise of the Maison and its teams to develop new codes. I am forever grateful for the trust and support of Bernard Arnault and Pietro Beccari on this incredible journey.”
