Altuzarra Revolution: Iconic Designer Takes CEO Helm with Bold Moves and Big Changes!

Fashionistas get ready! The fashion world is in for a shake-up as the iconic Joseph Altuzarra takes the reins as CEO of his namesake brand, starting January 1, 2025. This bold move follows the departure of Shira Sue Carmi who led the brand for nearly five years. But wait—there’s more! Carmi isn’t completely out of the picture; she’s set to join the company’s board. Now, that’s what we call keeping it in the family!

And the excitement doesn’t stop there. Meet Marta Lastra, who’s been elevated from COO to the brand-new President. With a tenure that began in April 2021, she’s now in charge of the nitty-gritty daily operations. You better believe she’s got her foot on the gas pedal to steer Altuzarra into uncharted territory!

Set your alarms for December, folks! A groundbreaking partnership with retail innovation firm P180 has added serious equity flair to Altuzarra's strategy. This venture ushers in a brand spanking new rental feature at their digital platform, alongside P180’s management of e-commerce. It's going to be a December to remember, that's for sure.

Altuzarra has nothing but praise for Carmi, thanking her for shaping the brand's soaring journey and brimming with excitement about the next chapter. "With Marta by my side," he burst out, full of pride, "we’ll drive distribution, marketing, and growth like never before!"

Let’s not forget Marta’s stellar pedigree! Joining the brand in 2020, as per her LinkedIn, she’s previously honed her craft at Loewe, The Row, and Ralph Lauren. Her track record is as luxurious as it gets!

So, what does this mean for Altuzarra's global footprint? Hold onto your hats because the brand is ready to expand in ways you never imagined. Keep your eyes peeled for the new innovations coming your way. Fashion lovers, you won’t want to miss this evolution!
