The master of theatrical, club-kid runway shows, Jeremy Scott, is the latest designer to take on dual brands as he will now also be the new creative director of Moschino. He replaces Rossella Jardini, who had been in the role since 1994. Moschino is a cheeky label in its own right: The spring 2014 runway collection included a teddy bear headdress, a nun-inspired dress, and a pale pink suit featuring head-to-toe newspaper print. So we think Scott's out-of-the box imagination (Nicki Minaj is a celeb fan) will meld perfectly with the aesthetic of the fashion house. But we'll have to wait until Milan Fashion Week for fall 2014 when his first collection for Moschino debuts.
"This appointment respects the DNA of the brand as Jeremy Scott represents not only an eclectic and contemporary communicator but most of all a designer capable of reinterpreting the identity and the essence of Moschino," said the company in a statement via WWD.
