French luxury firm Kering Tuesday appointed Emmanuel Gintzburger as chief executive of its fashion label Alexander McQueen as the firm further shuffles top executives following the departure of star designer Hedi Slimane from the group.
Mr. Gintzburger previously worked under Mr. Slimane as world-wide and wholesale director at label Yves Saint Laurent. He will replace Jonathan Akeroyd on May 9, Kering said in statement.
The new Alexander McQueen CEO’s mission will be to develop the brand, Kering said.
