Will the next collection from Peter Dundas for Emilio Pucci, to be presented on 28 February in Milan, be the last? Women's Wear Daily speculated in an article this Monday that the Norwegian designer may return to Roberto Cavalli and leave his place to Marco Zanini, who left Schiaparelli in November.

The Italian designer who has notably worked for Rochas, Versace, Halston and Dolce & Gabbana, joined Schiaparelli as its creative director in September 2013. He has, however, denied any contact with Emilio Pucci to WWD, which also mentioned other rumours concerning Massimo Giorgetti, creative director at MSGM, for this same position.

For his part, Peter Dundas has been the artistic director of Emilio Pucci since 2008 after having worked at Ungaro, Dolce & Gabbana and Révillon. Previously he was head of creations at Roberto Cavalli from 2002 to 2005.
