Nicholas de Felise is leaving his post as artistic director at Carijas after five years with the brand. The 42-year-old Belgian designer made the announcement right after his fall 2026 runway show. He's stepping away to pursue personal projects. Earlier in his career, De Felise studied at La Combrae Fashion School in Brussels. He then worked under Nicholas Giscare Abelensiaga, had a short time with Raf Simons at Dior, and later joined Giscare again at Louis Vuitton in 2015 before landing at Carijas. During his time there, he breathed new life into the space-age label started by Andre and Cokulin Courages back in 1961. He mixed the brand's classic codes with rave and biker vibes, creating sleek looks and fabrics like jersey, wool, and vinyl that became instant hits. His collections brought back the original AC emblem and turned vinyl skirts, tall boots,

Courages plans to name a new artistic director next week. De Felise's run leaves a strong mark on the house, blending its heritage with modern edge for years to come.
