Over the past five years, Pieter and the exceptional team he led have shaped Ala\u00efa\u2019s creative renewal, honoring its heritage and strengthening the Maison\u2019s relevance, confidence, and global recognition,\u201d Ala\u00efa CEO Myriam Serrano said in a statement released today.<\/p>\n<p>Mulier has been creative director of the house since 2021. Before Ala\u00efa, he dedicated a significant portion of his career to working alongside Raf Simons, first at Simons\u2019s eponymous label in Antwerp, then at Jil Sander and Christian Dior, where he also earned his couture stripes. In 2016, he was appointed creative director at Calvin Klein, after Simons was named chief creative officer of the American brand.<\/p>\n<p>At Richemont-owned Ala\u00efa, Mulier impressed the fashion world with his technical and creative mastery, architectural dresses and bestselling pieces such as the ballet flats and the Le Teckel shoulder bag. In its latest earnings, Richemont said sales in the quarter ending December 31, were up 3% at its fashion and accessories maisons which include Chlo\u00e9 and Ala\u00efa.<\/p>\n<p>Mulier\u2019s exit comes a few months after the sudden departure of Dario Vitale from the creative helm of Versace, and speculation grows about who could succeed him. Mulier was also among the names that surfaced during 2025\u2019s creative reset, notably for the creative director position at Balenciaga, which ultimately went to Pierpaolo Piccioli.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p> Source URL: http:\/\/vogue.com\/article\/pieter-mulier-exits-alaia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creative Directors Pieter Mulier Exits Ala\u00efa By Laure Guilbault January 30, 2026 Pieter Mulier, Vogue, October 2023.Photo: Anton Corbijn Pieter Mulier is leaving Ala\u00efa. \u201cWe sincerely thank Pieter for his vision and commitment, writing an important chapter in the ongoing evolution of the Maison.
