Raf Simons announced that is leaving Christian Dior, after three and a half years at the helm of the luxury French fashion house, citing personal reasons. This is not really a true novelty anymore; actually the news is already a part of public dominion, but still a must-report, due its importance and heaviness in the fashion industry.

He's departing Dior after he "reached this decision for personal reasons", said Dior in a statement.

"It is after careful and long consideration that I have decided to leave my position as creative director of Christian Dior's women's collection. It is a decision based entirely and equally on my desire to focus on other interests in my life, including my own brand, and the passions that drive me outside my work. Christian Dior is an extraordinary company, and it has been an immense privilege to write a few pages of this magnificent book." – said Raf.

A successor and all novelties in relation to Dior´s future are yet to be announced.
