Robert Liptak has departed his creative director role at Los Angeles brand RTA, WWD has learned. The previous senior designer for ladies’s ready-to-wear at Tom Ford joined the brand in June 2022, with the goal of elevating it in fashion direction and workmanship. “RTA was very dark and Gothic.

Kering Honors Carmen Jaquier, Nili Lotan’s L.A. Night, Prada’s

JAQUIER HONORED: Kering will award this 12 months’s Women in Motion Emerging Talent prize to “Thunder” director Carmen Jaquier. “I'm very grateful to receive this award, especially from a visionary and provoking director like Ninja Thyberg. Because of Women in Motion, I even have a sense of sorority, which touches me and offers me hope on this desire I even have for reflection, insurrection and transmission. I even have special feelings for all of the people — technicians, producers, screenwriters, actresses and actors — who fiercely committed themselves to my side for my first feature film, ‘Thunder,'” she said. The Swiss director was chosen by last 12 months’s honoree, Swedish director Thyberg. It's a Kering tradition for the Emerging Talent Award to...
