Raf Simons closes namesake fashion label after "extraordinary" 27 years



Belgian designer Raf Simons has announced he is closing the fashion label that bears his name after 27 years of operation.
Simons took to social media platform Instagram to announce the news, explaining that the brand's latest Spring/Summer 2023 show in October at clubbing venue Printworks, London, would be its last.
"The Spring/Summer 2023 collection is the conclusion of an extraordinary 27 year journey and the final season of the Raf Simons fashion brand," said the 54-year-old designer in the Instagram post.
"I lack words to share how proud I am of all that we have achieved," he continued.
"I am grateful for the incredible support from my team, from my collaborators, from the press and buyers, from my friends and family, and from our devoted fans and loyal followers. Thank you all, for believing in our vision and for believing in me," he added. "Forward always, Raf." Reason for closure is not known
Simons gave no specific reason for closing the brand. He will continue to be co-creative director of Prada, the couture fashion house where he works alongside Miuccia Prada, a post that he has been in since February 2020.
Simons, whose career spans three decades, is one of the world's most critically acclaimed fashion designers.
