The Italian brand Diesel is getting a new Chief Executive Officer (CEO), as the trade magazine Vogue Business reports. Andrea Rigogliosi was already considered a possible successor in autumn 2025, and his appointment is now said to have been officially confirmed. However, the parent company OTB has not yet published any information.
Rigogliosi is the brand’s first CEO since the departure of Eraldo Poletto in February 2023. He previously worked at Miu Miu as Global Head of Retail and Commercial, a position within the Prada Group that he held since early 2024. Before that, he worked for the Italian fashion house Fendi as President Europe. He also gained around eight years of experience at the French fashion house Christian Dior Couture, where he was most recently director of the French market.
Eraldo Poletto was only briefly at the helm of Diesel. He served as CEO for six months and decided to return to the United States for personal reasons. Poletto had taken over the position from Massimo Piombini, who had held the position since December 2019.
