Stuart Weitzman’s creative director steps down

Tapestry, Inc. has announced the resignation of Stuart Weitzman Creative Director Giovanni Morelli, just a year after it assigned the creative duties to him. The company added that it has commenced a search for a new creative leader.

“While we greatly admire Giovanni’s creative talents, Tapestry is committed to an environment where every individual feels respected and at times his behaviour fell short of these standards. Looking ahead, we have the utmost confidence in the talented Stuart Weitzman design team under the direction of CEO and Brand President Eraldo Poletto, who has a proven track record of developing iconic brands and successfully building global teams,” said Victor Luis, Chief Executive Officer of Tapestry, Inc in a statement.

Before joining Stuart Weitzman, Morelli served as the leather-goods design director at Loewe, since March 2015.
