Karl Lagerfeld might need to look elsewhere for his Chanel successor because it sounds like he’s already been taken!
The latest rumor coming out of Paris is Haider Ackermann will assume the creative director position at Christian Dior, even though the fashion house reportedly extended Bill Gaytten‘s contract.
Here’s what we know: on Wednesday morning a bouquet of flowers arrived at the Dior headquarters addressed to Mr. Ackermann. An address mix up was quickly ruled out since Haider’s offices are 3.5 miles away.
So…either a French Ashton Kutcher is trying to punk the fashion world or he’s “the one”.
Out of all the names that have been thrown around, and there’s been a lot, Haider is the most logical since he interned for John Galliano back in 90s.
Also, Ackermann is looking to hire a new assistant and it’s not for his eponymous label, but rather “something new”.
Dun-dun-DUN!!!
