Cacharel names new Creative Directors: Ling Liu and Dawei Sun
Cacharel has announced the appointment of Ling Liu and Dawei Sun as creative directors for all lines, encompassing womenswear, childrenswear, menswear and accessories. Both Chinese stylists will be starting their collaboration with Cacharel by working on the Spring-Summer 2012 collection, which is to be presented at the next Cacharel show as part of Paris Fashion Week in October 2011.
It’s one of the first major players in the Paris fashion industry to appoint creative directors from China. They both studied at la Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne school. Liu previously worked with Nicolas Ghesquière at Balenciaga and Stefano Pilati at Yves Saint Laurent in both womenswear and menswear. In 2005, she was awarded the Grand Prix du Trophees Saint Roch. Sun won the 2004 Grand prize in the Young Fashion Designer’s competition and the PFAFF Creative Prize. He started his career at Lolita Lempicka, and later worked at Balenciaga. He spent the previous five years working for John Galliano.
