>> Stefano Pilati may be staying put at Yves Saint Laurent, but another Paris Fashion Week-showing label is experiencing a change of designers: Dai Fujiwara is stepping down from Issey Miyake after the house's Fall 2011 show on March 4. With five years in his pocket as Miyake's creative director, Fujiwara wishes to take "the next step forward in his career," according to the statement; he will, however, support the Miyake design team through the Spring 2012 presentation. His replacement is expected to be announced next month. [Vogue UK]
