In March 2025, Donatella Versace stepped down as creative director of Versace, a role she held for nearly thirty years. Now, eighteen months later, the renowned Italian designer announces a collaboration with Revolve, placing Donatella back in the creative lead. This partnership with the California-based Revolve Group Inc. will encompass both beauty and fashion. “An independent venture reflecting Donatella’s personal creative vision,” stated the press release. The first products are anticipated to launch in 2027, along with the project’s name reveal.

“DIVA… Wishing you all the success in the world, Donatella.” [DK92]
“She did NOT need to do this. Alber Elbaz launching AZ Factory levels of random.” [rowjellies]
“Awkward and unnecessary.” [Thefrenchy]
“This is going to be something that Prada might not like. A little like the split at Saint Laurent: the fashion with Hedi Slimane and Anthony Vaccarello going in one direction; the cosmetics under L’Oreal going in another direction. Both disconnected.” [Monsieur Cristobal]
“Donatella, no! You are mother! Don’t do this to us! Revolve? WTF…” [prada melodies]
“She won’t be able to use her name unless she simply calls it Donatella (a nod to Medusa or the Gorgons could also work). That said, this could definitely conflict with Prada’s attempts to revive Versace.” [LadyJunon]
