A successor at Jil Sander was not named.

In the most recent figures available, Sander reported a 17.3 per cent year-on-year sales increase in 2023.

The eponymous founder was 24 when she started the business in 1968, opening her first store in Hamburg.

She was lured back again in 2003 and stayed for two years before being succeeded by Raf Simons.

He proved a brilliant creative captain, but was himself spirited away by Dior in 2011.

So Sander returned once again, only to depart in 2013 for personal reasons.

The Meiers came on board following the tenure of Rodolfo Paglialunga.
