Apparently, it’s the hot news on the French shoe forums, Anthony Delos has sold his firm to LVMH (owners of Berluti). His workshop will be owned by LVMH and Delos and his staff will be on the conglomerate’s payroll.
I have no idea, whether LVMH wants to promote the name Delos as a bespoke maker (and might produce a Delos ready-to-wear range at some point in the future) or if Anthony Delos (the man) will just be absorbed as an employee into the Berluti firm and the name Delos will disappear.

What a shame that a craftsman as talented as Delos cannot make it financially on his own.

Anthony Delos sells out to LVMH
Sadly, even talented man need to face the music. At the point of business, LVMH will made them more well known to the general public.
I hope they will not downgrade their products, and make their good more accessible to the public, at the end of the day, not everyone needs bespoke shoes.
