The Italian designer Riccardo Tisci has left his role as creative director of Givenchy, just shy of twelve years at the storied French label. His Fall-Winter 2017 menswear collection and Spring couture collection—shown together last month in Paris—will be his last. According to WWD, the split is amicable and came at the end of his existing contract.

Tisci's tenure at the house was the perfect storm of creativity and commercial viability, and he delivered collections that were often dark and brooding and undeniably luxe, but that yielded pieces guaranteed to sell out as soon as they hit shop floors. His string of highly identifiable hits, including his infamous animal tees (sharks and Rottweilers chief among them), his Madonna-and-child–printed sweatshirts and T-shirts, his razor-cut suits that instantly gave any man a sharp silhouette, his fashion shows that mixed models with "regular" street-cast people, and, of course, his putting Kanye in a kilt. His work has been consistent street-style fodder.

Additionally, Tisci was one of the first designers at a high-end label to embrace and appropriate streetwear, a movement that's had a lasting effect. Tisci's celebrity fans include Kanye West, David Beckham, Victor Cruz, and Justin Bieber, to name a few. In one of the most publicized coups of his tenure at the brand, Tisci designed both Kim Kardashian's dress and Kanye West's tuxedo for their 2014 wedding ceremony. "When I started at Givenchy, I was bored with fashion for men," Tisci told us in 2012. "Street culture? They don’t care. They don’t give a shit. They wear what they want. Bermuda, big and small. T-shirt oversize or T-shirt tiny. Prints. Bombers."

Rumor has it that Tisci will head to Versace, though there is no confirmation as of yet. The designer has had a long relationship with the house's current designer, Donatella Versace, even going so far as to cast her in a recent ad campaign. "It’s not that I invented hot water," he explained to us of his creative process and popularity. "It’s just, I’m very honest with my style and with what people want in the street."
