Pierpaolo Piccioli is stepping down from his role as creative director of Valentino.
He joined the company in 1999 and became the sole creative director in 2016.
After 25 years with the fashion house, Pierpaolo Piccioli is leaving the brand — specifically stepping down from his role as creative director, which he's held for the past eight years.
After graduating from the Istituto Europeo di Design school, Piccioli met his creative partner, Maria Grazia Chiuri, in the 1980s, according to BoF.
But when Chiuri left for Dior in 2016, Piccioli held the Valentino role on his own.
