In news released just moments ago Riccardo Tisci was announced as the new Chief Creative Officer at Burberry, effective March 12. Tisci commented “I am honoured and delighted to be joining Burberry as its new Chief Creative Officer and reuniting with Marco Gobbetti. I have an enormous respect for Burberry’s British heritage and global appeal and I am excited about the potential of this exceptional brand.” Marco was equally jubilant of the appointment, calling Riccardo “one of the most talented designers of our time”. “His designs have an elegance that is contemporary and his skill in blending streetwear with high fashion is highly relevant to today’s luxury consumer. Riccardo’s creative vision will reinforce the ambitions we have for Burberry and position the brand firmly in luxury.” Massive congratulations from all at Team Ten to both Burberry and Riccardo- we cannot wait to see what you create together!
