Her mission complete at Eric Bompard, Emily Harris is returning to Chloé. It is a grand comeback that will see the designer promoted to the head of creative direction at See By Chloé, the little-sister line of the label owned by Swiss luxury group Richemont. Harris, a knitwear specialist, has already begun her new role at the house, according to information received by FashionNetwork.com.

A graduate of Kingston University London, and with a wealth of experience gained at various luxury labels, the young designer was recruited in June 2018 by French cashmere specialist Eric Bompard. Previously, she had served as senior knitwear specialist at Sonia Rykiel for four years and held the same role at Chloé for five years.

Launched in 2001 by Phoebe Philo, See By Chloé was brought back in-house at the group in 2015, after having been produced and distributed for many years by the Italian manufacturer Sinv.
