Burton to leave creative direction of Kering label Alexander McQueen

PARIS Alexander McQueen creative director Sarah Burton will leave the Kering-owned fashion label after two decades, the latest in a series of management changes at the French luxury group.

New creative direction for the British luxury house will be named "in due course," the company said in a statement on Monday.

The announcement of Burton's departure comes amid a broad restructuring at Kering aimed at reviving sales of its star label Gucci.

Burton, who worked with the British label's founder Lee McQueen for over 14 years before becoming creative director in 2010, will present her last show for the label in Paris this month.
