The designer, who was born in Follonica, Tuscany, was best known for his role in the womenswear department of Gucci, where he worked for over two decades and rose to the position of head designer of womenswear. His debut Moschino collection was set for autumn/winter ’24, which would have been shown in February. His appointment also marked a return to an Italian designer heading up the house, following more than a decade of American designer Jeremy Scott’s leadership.
