LVMH has appointed Yves Cauchon as CEO of its Métiers d’Art division, succeeding Matteo De Rosa, who stepped down late last year. Cauchon, a 24-year luxury veteran, previously held roles at Louis Vuitton, Berluti, Fendi, Fenty, and Thélios within LVMH, before serving as Chloé COO from 2022. He will oversee craftsmanship supply chains and preserve artisanal savoir-faire across LVMH maisons, while advancing the group’s sustainability commitments. LVMH closed 2025 with 80.8 billion euros ($87.3 billion) in revenue, down 1% organically, with Q4 growth stabilizing at 1% growth.
