Demna Bows Out at Balenciaga with Star-Studded Paris Catwalk Show

PARIS, ÎLE-DE-FRANCE, FRANCE, JUL 9 – Demna ends a decade at Balenciaga with a couture show before leading Gucci's revival, a move Kering hopes will boost the under-performing brand's fortunes.

  • On Wednesday during Paris Haute Couture Week, Demna wraps up his decade at Balenciaga with a final collection, ahead of starting at Gucci on Thursday.
  • After a decade at Balenciaga, Demna left to revitalize Gucci, prompting Kering's shares to fall over 12 percent since his promotion announcement.
  • Demna’s star-studded farewell show during Paris Haute Couture Week was attended by celebrities like Nicole Kidman and Kim Kardashian, with Kering CEO Pinault praising Gucci’s 'creative power' as key to its future.
  • Demna's final Balenciaga show set the stage for Glenn Martens to debut Maison Margiela's first ready-to-wear collection and for Demna's Gucci debut next March.
  • Analysts suggest Demna's provocative style at Balenciaga may challenge Gucci's traditional image, reflecting industry debate on his long-term fit at the Italian luxury house.
