High-end French footwear brand JM Weston has recruited Olivier Saillard as its new artistic director; he will take up the role in January 2018.

Mr Saillard has been the director of the Paris Fashion Museum since 2010, overseeing the reopening of the facility in 2013 after it had been closed for four years. Since then, he has organised 28 exhibitions at the museum’s headquarters at the Palais Galliera and at other sites across Paris, including retrospectives on the work of designers Jeanne Lanvin and Cristóbal Balenciaga.
