It's fashion's neverending carousel.

The constant evolution of talent has significantly shaped the luxury fashion industry's landscape. Renowned designers have made waves through their collections and are transitioning between top brands, creating a dynamic merry-go-round of creativity and influence.&nbsp;
This ongoing movement underscores the interconnectedness of the fashion world. The shift of one designer can ripple through the entire industry, leading to innovative collaborations and reinvigorated brands. As we watch these changes unfold, it&rsquo;s clear that the search for the next big vision is always underway.
Amidst this shuffle, other notable figures find themselves in a transitional period.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/who-is-michael-rider-new-creative-director-celine-hedi-slimane-exit-fashion-news" target="_blank" title="Michael Rider Becomes New Creative Director of Celine After Hedi Slimane's Exit" rel="noopener">Hedi Slimane</a>, known for his striking impact at various luxury houses, is currently a name to watch as he navigates potential new opportunities after his recent departure from&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/beauty/new-fragrance-launch-celine-perfume-zouzou-luxury-beauty-news" target="_blank" title="CELINE Releases a New Youthful Fragrance Called &quot;ZOUZOU&quot;" rel="noopener">Celine</a>. Similarly, former&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/prada-womens-fashion-show-spring-summer-2025-collection-runway-looks-celebrities" target="_blank" title="Prada Merges Suspense and Style For Its Spring/Summer 2025 Show" rel="noopener">Prada</a>&nbsp;designer Fabio Zambernardi made headlines when he departed from the brand and has yet to assume a new role, adding to the intrigue of the current designer landscape. Other brands that are currently looking for Creative Directors include Chanel, Dries Van Noten and Missoni.&nbsp;
Below, L'OFFICIEL&nbsp;has rounded up all the designers bouncing between different luxury brands.

John Galliano&nbsp;

Galliano's rise to fame began in 1995 when he was appointed the head designer at Givenchy. In 1996, Galliano made a monumental move to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/dior-spring-summer-2025-collection-paris-fashion-week-show-runway-looks-celebrities-jisoo" target="_blank" title="Dior Brings Timeless Silhouettes With Sporty Edge in Spring/Summer 2025 Collection" rel="noopener">Christian Dior</a>, where he served as the creative director for 15 years.&nbsp; However, Galliano's time at Dior ended in 2011 after he was caught making anti-Semitic remarks at a Paris caf&eacute;. Galliano's career had a revival in 2013 when he collaborated with Oscar de la Renta for a short-term stint, helping design the Fall/Winter 2013 collection. In 2014, Galliano was appointed the creative director of&nbsp;Maison Margiela. However, there are rumours of Galliano leaving Margiela within the next month.&nbsp;

Alessandro Michele

Michele began working under Karl Lagerfeld and Silvia Venturini Fendi at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/fendi-womens-fashion-show-spring-summer-2025-collection-runway-looks-milan-celebrities" target="_blank" title="Fendi Celebrates A Century of Chic with its Spring/Summer 2025 Show" rel="noopener">Fendi</a>&nbsp;at the beginning of his career. Tom Ford then hired him to design bags for&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/gucci-spring-summer-2025-collection-show-milan-fashion-week-runway-celebrities" target="_blank" title="Gucci's Sabato De Sarno Brings Casual Grandeur to the Spring/Summer 2025 Runways" rel="noopener">Gucci</a>&nbsp;in 2002, and he has been there ever since until last year, when he made the switch to creative director at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/valentino-alessandro-michele-spring-summer-2025-pavilion-des-folies-looks-video-paris-fashion-week" title="Valentino's Spring/Summer 2025 Show Marks The Return of Alessandro Michele" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Valentino</a>.&nbsp;

Hedi Slimane&nbsp;

From 2000 to 2007, Slimane was the creative director for&nbsp;<g-bubble jscontroller="QVaUhf" data-ci="" data-du="200" data-tp="5" jsaction="R9S7w:VqIRre;" jsshadow=""><span jsname="d6wfac" class="c5aZPb" data-enable-toggle-animation="true" data-extra-container-classes="ZLo7Eb" data-hover-hide-delay="1000" data-hover-open-delay="500" data-send-open-event="true" data-theme="0" data-width="250" role="button" jsaction="vQLyHf" jsslot="" data-ved="2ahUKEwi91r6BlvCIAxXprYkEHThoBD8QmpgGegQIKhAD" tabindex="0">Dior Homme. Then,</g-bubble>&nbsp;from 2012 to 2016, he was the creative director for Yves Saint Laurent. From February 2018 to October 2024, Slimane was <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/celine-plein-soleil-2024-capsule-collection-french-riviera-summer-fashion-campaign" title="CELINE's Plein Soleil Collection Takes You to the French Riviera" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celine</a>'s creative, artistic, and image director. Slimane is currently a name to watch as he navigates potential new opportunities after his recent&nbsp;departure from <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/celine-announces-new-global-ambassador-danielle-of-newjeans-fashion-celebrity-news" title="Meet Celine's New Global Ambassador: Danielle of NewJeans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celine</a>.

Recently, the appointment of a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/who-is-michael-rider-new-creative-director-celine-hedi-slimane-exit-fashion-news" target="_blank" title="Michael Rider Becomes New Creative Director of Celine After Hedi Slimane's Exit" rel="noopener">new Celine creative director</a>&nbsp;has shifted attention to designer Michael Rider. Formerly with Ralph Lauren, and previously at Celine under the direction of Phoebe Philo, this new appointment has stirred excitement and also has, in turn, brought about rumors of other designers coming and going in the fashion industry. This shift highlights how established names continue to explore new avenues, bringing fresh perspectives to iconic brands.&nbsp;

Haider Ackermann&nbsp;

Ackermann&rsquo;s early career took shape in 1998 when he began working at Dior as an intern. However, Ackermann&rsquo;s breakthrough came with the launch of his eponymous label in 2003, which quickly gained critical acclaim for its elegant, draped silhouettes and expert use of leather and silk.
In 2016, Ackermann was appointed the creative director of Berluti, marking his first major leadership role at a luxury menswear brand. However, in 2018, after only three seasons, Ackermann parted ways with Berluti.
In recent years,&nbsp;Ackermann&nbsp;has embraced a new chapter of collaborations. He is now the creative director for Canada Goose and, most recently, Tom Ford.&nbsp;
