Fashion Designer Alessandro Dell'Acqua has replaced Marco Zanini as the new creative director of the French fashion house Rochas.
The designer is set to present his first collection for Rochas in Paris in February 2014, reported Vogue.
"I'm excited about this collaboration. Rochas is synonymous with French sophistication and a couture spirit, and as a designer I could not ask for anything more inspiring," Dell'Acqua said.
"Working for a maison with such a historical heritage is a rare opportunity and I feel grateful it was given to me," he added.
According to the fashion house, Zanini is making a departure as a result of a "mutual decision".
"I am grateful to P&G and GIBO for having entrusted me with the creative direction of Rochas," Zanini said.
"As an iconic French maison, Rochas has been an endless source of inspiration for me. I learned a lot over the past five years and I feel fortunate to have been part of such a wonderful adventure," he added.
