French skiwear brand Perfect Moment has hired more from Canada Goose as it sets its sights on moving from skiwear into broader fashion.
Rui Morgadinho joins as head of production and quality assurance, Samantha Argotti as head of product and Angela Sobral as head of sourcing.
They will report to Vittorio Giacomelli, former vice-president of product and sourcing at Canada Goose, who recently joined Perfect Moment.
He said: “I believe this fantastic assembly of my former team members represents a significant turning point for Perfect Moment’s growth outlook, particularly given their historic achievements."

Perfect moment CEO Jane Gottschalk said: “These new hires dramatically strengthen our product development and production capabilities as we continue our strategic expansion into the larger and faster-growing luxury outerwear market. We expect each of them to play key roles as we work to broaden our brand appeal from the slope to the city and extend our traditional fall/winter selling season to throughout the year.”
