His departure is bittersweet but his legacy will live on in the capable hands of the Vetements design team in Switzerland, as well as his brother, Guram Gvasalia, who is the company’s CEO. 

Gvasalia has certainly accomplished his mission: he revolutionized the fashion industry by bringing politics and social commentary into the mix. His collections based on an Eastern Bloc aesthetic now run rampant in the industry, as does his sense of irony with pieces like his sweatshirts printed with the phrase “May the bridges I burn light the way,” which retails for $800. The designer will be sorely missed at Vetements but fret not! He will remain the artistic director for Balenciaga.
