More than three years after Azzedine Alaïa’s passing, the Belgian designer has been appointed to helm the legendary brand.

Joining Maison Ala&iuml;a is Pieter Mulier&rsquo;s absolute dream.

The bar is high, the pressure is intense, but the talent is there.

Matthieu Blazy, his partner, is also in the fashion industry.
