Staff changes at Prada

Prada USA's chief executive Constance Darrow has handed in her resignation. On Tuesday the company released a statement thanking her for her "commitment to the brand". Executive board member Carlo Mazzi will take over from her in the interim until a successor is named "in the near future".

According to sources close to the development, Prada is going through some "significant corporate restructuring", reports Fashion Wire Daily. Darrow's resignation follows the departure of several other executives, among whom Katherine Ross, Prada USA's senior vice president of public relations and communications and Johanne Shepley Siff, senior vice president of sales and marketing.

Further to this, the company has appointed Armando Tolomelli director of group control and Cinzia Tito as group director of human resources.
