help Celine FAQ
Who is Celine's creative director now?
Hedi Slimane left Celine in October 2024 after joining the house in 2018. Michael Rider was announced as his successor and took over creative direction in 2025.
What changed at Celine during the Hedi Slimane era?
Slimane removed the accent from the Celine logo, expanded menswear, and pushed a sharper rock-influenced look. His first Celine collection was shown in Paris in 2018 and marked a clear break from the Phoebe Philo period.
Why do shoppers talk about Phoebe Philo-era Celine?
Phoebe Philo led Celine from 2008 to 2017 and made the brand a reference point for minimalist womenswear and modern leather goods. Bags such as the Luggage and Trapeze became closely associated with that era.
What Celine bags do people usually search for first?
The Luggage, Belt Bag, Triomphe, and Ava are among the names shoppers often compare in the resale and boutique market. Celine has been part of LVMH since 1996, so its leather goods sit in the same luxury group ecosystem as Louis Vuitton and Dior.
