Scottish fashion designer Jonathan Saunders, who closed his eponymous label in 2016 and stepped down as chief creative officer from Diane Von Furstenberg in 2017, is taking on a newly created role at & Other Stories, the brand announced today.
Saunders will lead & Other Stories’ overall creative direction, shaping how the brand evolves and expresses itself.
“Jonathan brings a refined blend of creativity and passion to & Other Stories and will play a key role in taking the brand into the next phase,” Lina Söderqvist, & Other Stories’ managing director, said. “His engagement and creative leadership, combined with a deep understanding of contemporary fashion, will be instrumental as we move forward. We look forward to working with Jonathan as we continue to evolve, and I am delighted to welcome him to us.”
Saunders was also previously creative director of Pollini, and has consulted for brands such as Calvin Klein, Tiffany & Co., Chloé, Louis Vuitton, Alexander McQueen, Pucci, and Marc Jacobs. He is known for his innovative use of color and print.
“I am excited to be working with & Other Stories and the H&M Group on this new chapter for the brand. I think that thoughtful, expressive design that is also accessible, is powerful in this fast-evolving industry,” Saunders said.
He’s set to start in “the first half of 2025.”
