Bernard Arnaud, CEO of the luxury brand conglomerate LVMH, announces today (Wednesday, 11/01) that he is appointing his eldest daughter, Delphine Arnaud, to head the company's second largest brand - the fashion house Dior, as part of a major change in management The 78-year-old Arnault, the richest man in the world as of early 2023 (overtaking Elon Musk last month), owns Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, Dior and more than 70 of the world's leading luxury fashion brands.

It is easy to declare that this is nepotism in all its glory, but it appears that Delphine Arnaud (47) earned her position honestly, of course depending on who you ask.

She joined the family business in 2000 after two years at the McKinsey management consulting company, and graduating from the London School of Economics.

Arnault joined the LVMH board in 2003 - becoming the first woman and the youngest person to serve on it.

She comes to the position after a decade as deputy CEO of Louis Vuitton, and was chosen to replace Pietro Baccari as president and CEO of the Dior fashion house.

Meaning: to manage a luxury brand whose value is estimated at 382 billion euros.

This is the biggest role yet to be given to a member of the next generation of the Arnaud family, even with all 5 of Bernard's children taking key roles in the team.

As part of the major change of managers taking place these days in the luxury empire, Pietro Baccari (who was the chairman and CEO of Christian Dior Couture) will replace Michael Burke and be appointed chairman and CEO of Louis Vuitton in his place (after Burke served as CEO of Louis Vuitton for 10 years).

"Pietro Baccari has done an exceptional job at Christian Dior over the past five years," Bernard Arnault said in a statement, "His leadership has accelerated the appeal and success of this iconic house...I am confident that Pietro will lead Louis Vuitton to the next level of success and desirability."

And about his daughter Delphine, Arnaud said in his response: "Under Delphine's leadership, the desirability of Louis Vuitton products has advanced significantly, allowing the brand to regularly set new sales records. Her sharp insights and unparalleled experience will be a crucial asset in driving the ongoing development of Christian Dior."

Both Arnaud (at Dior) and Bacary (at Louis Vuitton) will have to navigate a challenging environment in the short term.

While Arno's appointment actually marks a kind of closing of the circle - as she returns to the brand where she first worked in 2001, where she began working on shoes directly opposite Dior's creative director at the time, John Galliano, and before advancing to become deputy general manager at the corporation.

The management changes at LVMH will take effect on February 1st.
