Paul Surridge is rumored to be exiting his role of creative
director at Italian fashion house Roberto Cavalli. The English-born
designer joined the label in July 2017 after holding design positions
with several brands including Burberry, Calvin Klein and Jil
Sander.
Since his first collection for the brand, Spring 2018, Surridge has
been blending his signature minimalist aesthetic with the bold prints
Cavalli is known for.
However, a source reported to WWD that Surridge has been becoming
frustrated in several areas of the business and is now close to
resigning from Cavalli. According to WWD, a lack of investment in both
the development of the brand’s retail network and its marketing and
communications department is the source of Surridge’s frustration.
An official announcement is rumored to come this week.
