The sophisticated and the luxurious fashion brand Jil Sander named ‘Rodolfo Paglialunga’ as its new Creative Director. The announcement came in following its eponymous founder, Sander’s third departure from the label in October last year.

Rodolfo has earlier been the womenswear design director at Prada and creative director at Vionnet. He will make his debut for Jil Sander at the Milan Fashion Week in September and will showcase his spring/summer 2015 collection.

Honoured to be a part of the brand, the designer now follows the footsteps of Raf Simons, who was associated with the label for seven years, from 2005 to 2012, to take it to a new and innovative direction.
