Paul Andrew just landed a new gig. Sergio Rossi, the Italian luxury footwear label, has tapped the CFDA member as its new creative director. He starts this week and will unveil his first collection for the fall 2025 season, according to WWD.
“I am honored and delighted to join Sergio Rossi as creative director, a world-renowned house of shoemaking whose roots and legacy speak to the lasting power of Italian savoir-faire,” Andrew said. “And I look forward to building upon Sergio Rossi’s own unique spirit of innovation and high craft as we propose a bright new vision for the brand today.”
Andrew’s career has been marked by distinguished accolades, including his win as the first shoe designer and youngest brand for the 2014 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund a year after starting his namesake label. The Paul Andrew footwear line was paused during his five-year stint at Ferragamo but was relaunched in 2022 after exiting the Florence-based brand in 2021. Since then, he has presented new collections at New York Fashion Week, and we’re excited to see his newest one this September.
“Lanvin Group is pleased to announce the addition of Paul Andrew to the Sergio Rossi team. With his creative design expertise and forward-thinking approach, Paul is set to lead Sergio Rossi into a new era of success. This new direction for the brand aligns seamlessly with our mission to uphold its rich heritage while catering to the evolving tastes of our clientele,” said Eric Chan, CEO of Lanvin Group.
