Pinault family holding company Artémis has named Marie Leblanc chief executive of Space Age brand Courrèges, effective November 4th.

Leblanc, who stepped down as CEO of Victoria Beckham in early October, will succeed Adrien Da Maia, who, together with creative director Nicolas Di Felice, managed to bring fresh momentum to the brand, doubling sales last year.

LeBlanc will be tasked with opening a new cycle of growth. “Marie Leblanc’s mission will be to accelerate Courrèges’ expansion and strengthen the organization, while supporting its creative momentum,” Artémis said in a statement.
