December 2017 Phoebe Philo has left Céline. The autumn winter collection 2018, presented between the departure of Phoebe Philo and the arrival of Hedi Slimane, was displayed in the showrooms at Céline headquarters, fully overseen by her. This interim collection had been designed by the team of phoebe philo and continues in the Philo spirit. the long wide trousers, over sized coats, a statement jewel, a mannish suit and a patchwork of silk headscarves which was made into a dress, quirky decorated with jeweled toggles; it was all there.
Hedi Slimane is, meanwhile, working to set up his Los Angeles Paris studio system for his reboot of the brand, to be revealed in September both for men and women. fragances and couture will follow later.
