Donatella Versace, who took over the fashion label founded by her brother Gianni after his murder in 1997, will no longer serve as the house's chief creative officer, Versace announced today. She has become an iconic figure within the industry, and one of the very few women designers in a top role at fashion house.
She will be succeeded by Dario Vitale, Miu Miu’s former design and image director. However, she is not exiting entirely, as she will remain at Versace as its chief brand ambassador.
