Capri Holdings Limited, the group that controls the Italian brand, has made it known that Donatella will hold the new role of Chief Brand Ambassador, a term that means her commitment as a Versace ambassador for all philanthropic and charity initiatives that have always accompanied the activity of the designer.

Donatella Versace said: «Supporting the next generation of designer has always been important for me. I am enthusiastic that Dario Vitale joins us and I can’t wait to look Versace through new eyes. I want to thank my incredible design team and all Versace employees with whom I had the privilege of working for over three decades. It was the greatest honor of my life to carry on the legacy of my brother Gianni. He was the real genius, but I hope to have some of his spirit and tenacity. In my new role of Chief Brand Ambassador, I will remain the most passionate supporter of Versace, who is part of my DNA and is always in my heart ».
