September is a pivotal month for fashion, with numerous debut collections from new creative directors like Matthieu Blazy at Chanel and Demna at Gucci. Michael Rider, the new designer at Celine, presented a collection at the brand's atelier, featuring a blend of men's and womenswear. This marked a shift from Hedi Slimane’s oversized silhouettes to skinny jeans and fitted trousers. Despite initial fan hopes for a return to Phoebe Philo’s minimalism, Rider’s style leans towards Slimane’s signature aesthetic. Slimane previously doubled Celine’s sales, making it a top brand for LVMH before his resignation due to contract issues.
