Dear Shaded Viewers,
Blumarine has announced the appointment of David Koma as its new creative director. The Georgian-born designer, renowned for his glamorous and feminine aesthetic, will take the helm of the Italian fashion house immediately.
Koma, whose eponymous label recently celebrated its 15th anniversary, has garnered a loyal following for its jewel-encrusted dresses and body-conscious silhouettes, bringing a fresh perspective to Blumarine. His appointment comes after the departure of Walter Chiapponi, who held the position for a brief period.
“Blumarine embodies a unique blend of sensuality, timeless glamour, and elegance that I have always admired,” said Koma. “It is an honour to be able to write the next chapter in the brand’s illustrious history. I am excited to celebrate Blumarine’s rich creative heritage while infusing it with my own modern vision.”
Industry insiders are eagerly anticipating Koma’s debut collection for Blumarine, which is slated for the pre-fall 2025 season. With his talent for creating striking and feminine designs, Koma is expected to breathe new life into the brand and capture the hearts of a new generation of fashion enthusiasts.
Later,
Bethany
