Charlotte Blechman Leaves Gucci
(NEW YORK) Charlotte Blechman has resigned from her position as vice president of public relations for Gucci America. Starting with Tom Ford’s debut at Gucci in 1995 and working all the way through Frida Giannini’s recent triumphs for the company, Blechman has been with the company for 14 years; following her resignation, she will continue to work on special projects for the U.S. division of the brand. “The last 14 years have been a fantastic journey,” said Blechman, whose last day will be December 5. “Through my tenure at Gucci, I am lucky to have worked closely with some of the most talented people in the industry and to have contributed to the success of the brand in the U.S.” Blechman worked alongside Gucci president Daniella Vitale on events such as the company’s 5th Avenue flagship opening, the Gucci Loves New York marketing campaign, and A Night to Benefit UNICEF and Raising Malawi, Gucci’s largest global charitable initiative to date, which raised over $5 million.-
