MILAN – Designer Paul Andrew is stepping down as creative director of Salvatore Ferragamo, effective in May, the fashion house said Thursday.
Andrew joined the Florence-based company as women’s footwear designer in 2016 and was promoted to creative director for all categories in 2019. “After five years, with pride and a heavy heart, I have decided it’s time for a new challenge,’’ Andrew said in a post on Instagram. “It’s been a true honor to give new life to Salvatore’s legacy, his genius design and ground-breaking innovation.
I will always be grateful for this opportunity, and proud of the work I have accomplished.” Ferragamo said upcoming collections will be entrusted to the current in-house design team.
