Gucci’s Head of Industrial Operations for leather goods, footwear and jewellery will reportedly leave the company after 23 years, writes ILM.
A source told Fashion Network that Massimo Rigucci will depart the brand in mid-January 2024, with rumours pointing to Prada’s Head of Industrial Operations Massimo Vian as his successor.
Vian will leave Prada at the end of November 2023 to take a broader role at Gucci, but his arrival will be followed by organisational changes at the brand, the source said.
“Ever since [Creative Director] Alessandro Michele’s departure, heads have continued to roll,” the source told Fashion Network.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
