Louis Vuitton’s in-house jewellery designer, the impossibly chic Camille Miceli, who was the brains behind the plastic paper-chain necklaces on Louis Vuitton’s A/W 09 show, has been named Artistic Director of Christian Dior’s Costume Jewellery and Artistic Advisor to the Management for Several Leather Goods Lines, as revealed by Fashion and Runway.

“My years at Louis Vuitton were a turning point in my life. Marc Jacobs gave me the opportunity to express my creativity through jewels and accessories. I have always had a profound admiration and attraction for the house of Dior, whose history, creativity and modernity are symbols of elegance. I am very eager to express my own sensibilities through the house’s codes,” Miceli said.

Miceli will be making the move over to Dior in October this year, joining the likes of John Galliano, Kris Van Assche, and Victoire de Castellane. We look forward to seeing what she creates this S/S10.
