It was announced by Versace’s U.S. owner, Capri Holdings, on Thursday, March 13, that Donatella would step down as chief creative officer for the role of chief brand ambassador.
Miu Miu’s former design and image director, Dario Vitale, will take over as CCO effective April 1.
The reaction from high-profile models to individual fashion lovers is expected, although the news of Donatella stepping down as the creative director of Versace was unexpected; fashion lovers all over the world are celebrating the icon that she is.
Below are some reactions on X, formerly known as Twitter.
