The designer is returning to the family business after working on independent projects
Margherita Missoni, the daughter of president and creative director Angela Missoni, has been appointed creative director of the younger M Missoni line. Tasked with further differentiating, repositioning and expanding the brand globally, her first collection will be for spring 2020.
“Being identified as the person who can lead the future course of the new M Missoni fills me with pride”, the designer said in a statement. “It’s exciting to have the opportunity to set new paradigms and forge new directions for this brand, all whilst using the Missoni aesthetic which lives within me.”
Margherita left the company back in 2015 to pursue other professional projects including her own independent children’s line, which is now closed.
“I am both proud and overjoyed to welcome Margherita back into the Missoni Group as the creative director of M Missoni”, her mother Angela said. “In her professional trajectory within and outside the company, Margherita has demonstrated her considerable skills. I am confident that Margherita’s talents will make M Missoni a relevant brand for the years to come.”
