Coke on the Runway? Yeah, you never see it but you know what’s happening backstage. Oh, wait, Coca Cola?!? Yeah, I guess that makes more sense.

Donatella Versace Teams Up With Christopher Kane

Donatella Versace teamed up with Christopher Kane to resurrect the Versus label started by Gianni in the late eighties. The capsule collection launches this fall.

20 years after Gianni Versace launched the Versus diffusion line – and five years after the last collection – Donatella Versace has revived the label.

At a presentation in Milan this Sunday, Donatella and collaborator Christopher Kane debuted accessories for Fall/Winter 2009.

Dazed & Confused reported that this year’s line “draws direct inspiration from the back catalog of Versus and includes super high black platform heels with bold diamond detailing, black geometric calfskin bags, chunky bejeweled Chelsea boots and opulent crystal jewelry.” So it seems to be a mix honest to both designer’s styles.

Versus will release men’s and women’s clothing in Spring 2010.

RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Versace Fall 2009 Collection

Edited by Corey Moran

Donatella brought it to Milan with a strong collection from Versace. The designer made a solid point of noting that white after Labor Day is no longer in effect, and started the show with five or six all white outfits for Fall straight out of the gate. The collection covered the whole spectrum, and it found its way back into the usual blacks and grey that Fall 2009 seems to be full of.

Thin White Twinks Win The Runways of Milan

White boys have won the runways of Milan. Blacks, hispanicals and asians are completely missing. Thank god for the recession, hopefully a few more of these brands will go under and take their 1940′s segregation based practices with them.

Keep your $10,000 Crocodile Bag, I Don’t Need It!

Walk into any high-end store and you are bound to feel like the elephant in the room. I never knew browsing was a crime, but I never even consider going into these stores unless I look tip-top and have intent to buy. Even with economy driving designers into the ground, forcing even Prada to plaster sale signs in their windows, Versace refuses to “stoop” to that level. CEO of Versace, Giancarlo Di Risio, a strong believer that the label is only for the elite clientele, refuses the idea of a sale because it will attract “regular” people. Di Risio stated:

“We want to offer a real luxury and not to open our doors to the consumption of young girls who can put the designer handbag of their dreams on their arm with less than 300 Euros. We are not interested in that.”

The Bashed: Donatella Versace

Edited by Andy Wass

Is this really Donatella Versace?

Donatella’s battled her demons in the past and even spent some time in rehab for alcohol and cocaine addictions. It looks like she’s transferred those addictions, taking some unhealthy cues from daughter Allegra, or stayingout in the sun too long, or overbleaching her hair …. or all of the above.

Maybe St. Bart’s is just full of bad lighting.

Henry Holland Nuditees

Henry Holland is trying for a new trademark T-shirt style: cartoons of Agyness Deyn, John Galliano, Donatella Versace, and Karl Lagerfeld.  The twist?  The designers are in the nude, with strategically placed flowers.

The tees are set to hit stores next year.
