Joseph Altuzarra has announced plans to show his eponymous label’s upcoming collections in Paris. The news marks a homecoming for the designer; he grew up in the French capital, but has been based in New York since starting his brand in 2008. The move represents his desire to expand Altuzarra internationally.
Altuzarra is not the only American fashion house to defect to Paris. In the last year, Rodarte and Proenza Schouler have both elected to move across the pond in order to strengthen brand presence in Europe and align with the couture calendar.
