The top design job at Gucci became available back in February, following the not-so-shocking departure of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefashionspot.com\/runway-news\/900205-forum-members-react-to-sabato-de-sarno-exiting-gucci-as-creative-director\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sabato De Sarno<\/a> (who served as creative director since January 2023). Given the new appointment, Demna will subsequently leave his role at Balenciaga, with his final collection set to be presented in July during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefashionspot.com\/runway-news\/886642-forum-members-review-the-pretentious-53rd-balenciaga-fall-2024-haute-couture-collection\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week<\/a>. &#8220;I am truly excited to join the Gucci family.
