Josep Font, the visionary behind the success of Delpozo, has made the surprising decision to step down from his role as the creative force driving the luxury Spanish brand. This announcement, following the conclusion of the brand’s latest showcase in London, has added an unexpected element to the kickoff of Paris Fashion Week. Over the past six years, Font has transformed Delpozo from a fragrance-focused label to a prêt-à-couture powerhouse renowned for its meticulously crafted silhouettes and innovative designs.
After the passing of Jesús del Pozo, the original founder of the brand, in 2011, Perfumes y Diseño took over and brought in Font to spearhead the brand’s creative direction. With his unique background in architecture, Font brought a fresh perspective to Delpozo and helped propel the label onto the global stage. Through strategic partnerships and a presence at renowned fashion events worldwide, Delpozo under Font’s leadership has become synonymous with artistry and sophistication.
While speculation had been swirling earlier this year regarding possible tensions within the brand, Font’s departure has now brought these rumors to the forefront. The absence of a named successor has left many wondering about the future trajectory of Delpozo and who will continue to innovate in Font’s absence. The fashion industry eagerly anticipates the announcement of the new creative direction for the iconic Spanish fashion house.
As for Font, his post-Delpozo plans remain unknown, leaving observers and fans alike curious about where his talents will be showcased next. Whether he will reemerge at another notable fashion label or concentrate on building his own namesake brand, only time will tell. In a realm as dynamic and ever-evolving as fashion, change is inevitable, and the evolution of Delpozo post-Font will undoubtedly be a narrative worth closely monitoring.
