Creative director, Lacoste
Pelagia Kolotouros
Greek-born Kolotouros built her career in sportswear, with roles at adidas, The North Face and Yeezy. Lacoste appointed her creative director in early 2023, following Louise Trotter's exit. She shows the French brand's collections at Paris Fashion Week, staging the Fall/Winter 2026 show on Roland-Garros's Philippe Chatrier court, a nod to the house's tennis roots.
