After only six months, Jil Sander has to get by without CEO Serge Brunschwig. The managing director announced his farewell to the fashion label on Wednesday at the LinkedIn career network.
“Today is the last day of my mission for Jil Sander,” said the outgoing manager. “I would like to thank the team for what we have achieved and that we have prepared this great brand for the next chapter. I also thank the OTB group for the trust that they have shown to me. We all love Jil Sander-their clarity and the mixture of classical and modern. My best wishes for the future of Jil Sander and the OTB group!”
Succession still open
On February 5, Brunschwig took over the position of Jil Sander’s CEO and also the Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) of the parent company OTB and reported directly to the company’s CEO, Ubaldo Minelli. He followed Luca Lo Lo Curzio, who was appointed Jil Sander CEO in May 2023 and started the position in June of the same year. Afterwards Lo Curzio became managing director of K-Way, the brand founded in Paris in 1965. It is currently not known who will follow his successor at the head of Jil Sander.
Brunzwig looks back on a long international career in the luxury segment. He came to LVMH in 1995 and has held leadership positions in various companies in the French group over the years. Among other things, he was Managing Director and President of Fendi, President of Dior Homme, COO by Christian Dior Couture and CEO from Celine. In addition, he held international management positions at Louis Vuitton and Sephora.
Brunschwig has conclusions from the École Polytechnique, the École Nationale Supérieure of the Télécommunications and the Sciences Po in Paris.
