After two years without a CEO, Diesel has appointed a new chief executive: Andrea Rigogliosi, who is joining from Miu Miu. Among other things, he will be responsible for driving the further growth of the Italian fashion brand in Asian markets.

Focus on Asia

Before joining Miu Miu, Rigogliosi was European president at Fendi for more than two years. Prior to that, he worked at Dior for eight years, including four years as managing director for Italy and then as managing director for France. He fills a gap at Diesel: former CEO Eraldo Poletto resigned in February 2023 for personal reasons after only seven months. Since his departure, Diesel co-founder Renzo Rosso has been temporarily leading the brand. He is also chairman of OTB, the group that owns brands such as Jil Sander, Maison Margiela, Marni, and Viktor&Rolf in addition to Diesel.
