Daniela Pörner, 57, has reportedly decided to resign as head designer for Willy Bogner for “reasons of age.” It's not sure who will take her place after her departure on April 30. She will subsequently consult for Bogner in the area of home shopping, retail and styling. Two other managers, Klaus Grönefeld and Dominik Winkler, have left the company. Grönefeld was in charge of international wholesale operations. Winkler was the retail director and he has been replaced by Michael Wrobel. On the other hand, the new management led by Alexander Wirth has created a new position for store design and visual merchandising, assigning it to Pasquale delli Paoli, who comes from Ralph Lauren.
