Matthew Ives has appointed the British luxury men’s fashion brand Dunhill as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO). This was announced by the Swiss parent company Richemont on Tuesday.

Ives will switch to Dunhill on October 13 by the diamond company de Beers. In his previous employer, he has acted as Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer in the past three years. Previously, he had been active in managerial positions for Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels for over ten years. He also worked as a consultant at McKinsey & Co.

In his new role as Dunhill CEO, he will report to Philippe Fortunato, CEO of the fashion and accessory houses in Richemont.

Fortunato commented on the appeal in a message: “Matthew’s well -founded knowledge of both the luxury industry and Richemont will be invaluable to lead Dunhill to his next chapter.”

“I would also like to thank Andrew Holmes, the Chief Operating and Financial Officer from Dunhill, that he has acted as an interim CEO since the beginning of 2024,” said Fortunato.

On the occasion of his appointment, IVES said: “I am very happy to come to Dunhill and to work alongside creative director Simon Holloway to strengthen the position of the company as the leading British luxury house for men’s fashion.”
