Fashion career profile
Adrian Appiolaza
Adrian Appiolaza is an Argentine fashion designer whose leadership roles include Chloé, Loewe and Moschino. Aeffe appointed him Creative Director of Moschino in January 2024, with responsibility for women’s, men’s and accessories collections; his first women’s collection was presented for Fall/Winter 2024. The appointment announcement also identifies a decade of experience as Women’s Ready-to-Wear Design Director at Loewe and an earlier position in the same role at Chloé alongside Clare Waight Keller. Aeffe later announced that Moschino and Appiolaza had mutually agreed to part ways, effective June 19, 2026. His Moschino role is consequently marked former, not active. The profile keeps his precise women’s-design leadership at Loewe visible as a previous career row, while leaving its undocumented starting year unset. It does not confuse his creative position with the separate executive leadership of Aeffe.
