Donatella Versace Is Starting Over With a Mysterious New Venture

Donatella Versace is returning to the fashion and beauty world with a new partnership with the Revolve Group. The collaboration will see the company develop a new fashion and beauty brand under Donatella’s leadership. The partnership marks a new chapter for the designer, who will bring her experience and creative vision to the upcoming brand.

The announcement comes just 18 months after Donatella’s stepping away from her family-owned brand in March 2025. Sources have told Page Six that Donatella’s contract with the then-owner Capri Holdings did not allow her to put the Versace name on any other labels or design apparel. 

The designer had completed 30 years as the Italian brand’s creative head. The new venture will include beauty, fashion, and entertainment. It is slated to roll out next year. The Italian designer will be serving as the yet-unnamed brand’s Chief Creative Officer. Donatella has mused on the creative potential of the partnership. “I believe creativity should be fearless, inclusive and alive in the world,” she said.

The designer added, “I have always been inspired by the next generation, in music, film, art and, of course, fashion. This partnership gives me the freedom to speak to that generation in a completely new and personal way, through beauty and fashion. REVOLVE understands something I believe deeply: culture comes from connection. Together, we want to create that connection with a new voice, a new look and a new energy,” she said.

Mike Karanikolas, Co-Founder and Co-CEO, REVOLVE Group, said, “Donatella is one of the defining creative voices of our time. This partnership gives that vision an entirely new platform and the freedom to build something from the ground up. By combining Donatella’s creative authority with REVOLVE’s technology, infrastructure and global reach, we have an opportunity to create something genuinely distinctive — and build it for the long term.” 

This may mark a new era for Donatella, who spent three decades turning Versace into one of fashion’s top luxury houses.
