Phoebe Philo stepped down from her role as Céline Creative Director in 2017. The news of Phoebe’s departure from the brand was met with widespread remorse as the designer managed to find loyal followers and fans. In just a few seasons, Phoebe made the brand one of the most sought-after brands within the industry: it was she who called oversized jackets and midiskirts a new femininity. Therefore, Phoebe is considered to be one of the most famous designers of the generation.
Now there are rumors that Phoebe Philo is returning to fashion industry and is launching her own collection with an “eco slant and essentials focus”. Some believe that the designer will create her own fashion brand, while others have mentioned she could potentially take on a position at the house of Azzedine Alaïa.The designer herself has not commented on this information yet. Let's hope that the rumors will turn out to be true and Phoebe Philo will make a comeback.
