Donatella Versace, a legendary designer and fashion icon, has announced her decision to leave the position of creative director of the Versace brand, which she occupied for almost three decades. This is a significant moment in the history of the fashion house, because Versail has become his face and engine, continuing his brother Gianni Versace, the founder of the brand.
The official statement about her decision Donatella made a brand through Instagram. In her words, she thanked the Versace team and emphasized the importance of supporting the next generation of designers, paying attention to Dario Vitalale, who will head the brand since April 1, 2025.
"It has always been important support for the next generation of designers. I am very glad that Dario Vitalale joins us and look forward to seeing Versace with new eyes. I want to thank my incredible designer team and all Versace employees, with whom I had been working with my life. I hope that I have a little spirit and perseverance, ”Donatella wrote.
However, its impact on the brand will remain an integral part of Versace: in the new role of the main ambassador of the brand, it will keep an important place in the company, leaving Versace in its heart and DNA.
Dario Vitali, the new creative director of Versace, also expressed gratitude to Donatelie for trust and called his appointment a great honor. He is ready to continue the inheritance of the brand, introducing fresh ideas and an innovative approach to its development.
Changes in Versace leadership open a new chapter in the history of the brand, which continues to be one of the most influential and iconic fashion in the world.
