Jean-Paul Gaultier, the enfant terrible (bad boy) of French fashion, is stepping down as designer of women’s ready-to-wear for Hermes but the luxury group owns a 45 percent stake in Gaultier’s fashion house.
Christian Lemaire, the creative director of apparel company Lacoste, will replace the designer who earned rave reviews from the fashion world during seven years at Hermes. Lemaire has revitalised Lacoste since 2001.
