Sandra Choi, the designer of Jimmy Choo, may leave the company when her contract expires in December of this year.
Choi, who is the niece of the company’s founder Jimmy Choo, is understood to have become disillusioned with the management structure at the business, which was bought in 2004 by Hicks Muse, now Lion Capital, for £101m, according to Draper’s Record.
Sources at the company have said that whilst Choi is very talented, she is not irreplaceable.
