Daniel Lee has been named chief creative officer at Burberry, replacing Riccardo Tisci, Burberry said Wednesday that Lee will join Burberry on Oct. 3. 

CEO Jonathan Akeroyd called him "an exceptional talent with a unique understanding of today's luxury consumer and a solid track record of business success. His appointment reinforces the ambitions we have for Burberry. I am excited to work closely with him and am confident he will have the impact we are aiming for in this next phase, supported by our talented and experienced teams."

Meanwhile, the company stated that: "Riccardo has decided to leave after nearly five years, during which he led Burberry's creative transformation. Under his creative leadership, the company has revitalized its brand image, introducing a new visual identity and reviving the Thomas Burberry Monogram."

Tisci said, "Burberry is a very special place, with a magical past and a very promising future. The chapter I have been asked to write in its long history is one I am incredibly proud of, and I decided it would culminate with my show on Monday. I have been fortunate to be able to continue a legacy of innovation and have consistently championed creativity and diversity in order to always move Burberry forward. I want to thank my teams, past and present, and the army of collaborators and friends who have helped me write a chapter that I hope remains in Burberry's future for years to come."

Daniel Lee is a big fashion talent. In less than one year, at at just 33 years old, he is one of the youngest fashion designer to win the ceremony’s most important prizes. His square-toed quilted shoes, his his slinky Stretch sandals, his clutch bags and the pouch bags are iconic pieces. The coolest fashion influencers (remember when they are in Puglia?) and Hollywood stars can't help wearing them, having them. Me too!!!

Alla cerimonia dei British Fashion Awards, Bottega Veneta e Lee hanno vinto in quattro categorie: Designer dell'anno, Designer dell'anno inglese: abbigliamento femminile, Designer dell'anno per gli accessori e Brand dell'anno. Daniel Lee è un grande talento della moda. In meno di un anno, a soli 33 anni, è uno dei più giovani stilisti a vincere i premi più importanti della cerimonia. Le sue scarpe trapuntate a punta quadrata, i suoi sandali elasticizzati, le sue pochette e le borse a marsupio sono pezzi iconici. Le fashion influencer più cool (ricordate quando sono in Puglia?) E le star di Hollywood non possono fare a meno di indossarli, di averli. Lo stesso vale per me!

Adoriamo Bottega! Adoriamo Daniel Lee!
