An iceberg may have heralded bad news for Kate Winslet, Leonardo DiCaprio et al – but this Iceberg, as in Iceberg, the Italian fashion house, marks good news for Mr James Long. Why? Because this morning it has been announced that he will become the Creative Director of Iceberg menswear. “The sportswear aesthetic, the innovative approach to knitwear, the passion for prints and the employ of technical fabrics, make James Long the right creative director of Iceberg menswear collection” Paolo Gerani, CEO of Gilmar Group said. The best bit? There’s not long to wait – he’ll be showing his first collection during menswear week in Milan this January. Fans of James Long’s own label need not worry – he’ll continue to show his eponymous line in London. Phew. Congratulations from all at Ten Towers!
