Jil Sander creative directors Lucie and Luke Meier are exiting Jil Sander, the Milan-based brand announced following its fall/winter 2025 show during Milan Fashion Week, confirming months of speculation that this collection would be their last for the house.

The husband and wife duo first took over as joint creative directors in 2017, reinvigorated the brand with their take on minimalist femininity, with sharp collections that showcase craft infused with a modern, sensual elegance.

For their final Jil Sander collection, titled 'A bright metaphor of love', the Meiers created a tactile collection built around turning darkness ("the hues that seem to soak our times," they said) into light, with plush shearling coats and ribbon-adorned gowns shown alongside tinsel-esque fringed skirts and dresses and silk shirts with sequin bib detailing, that shimmered as they caught the light.
