Mr Lefebvre, who is currently group digital distribution director at Richemont, will take over the role at the luxury eCommerce retailer from 4 January 2021. He succeeds Federico Marchetti, who will remain chairman of the group.

Johann Rupert, chairman of Richemont, commented: “Richemont’s digital journey, since our first investment in Net-A-Porter in 2002, to my encounter with a visionary entrepreneur, Federico Marchetti, that led in 2015 to the creation of the Yoox Net-A-Porter Group, then its acquisition in 2018, has been fascinating in many ways.

“I would like to thank Federico for his relentless passion, his energy and his drive in shaping the largest player in luxury selective distribution. He has crafted and delivered the vision that has prevailed since 2000 and has inspired so many. I wish Federico all the best for his future career.”
