Crediting Donatella with her first big runway appearance, Gigi Hadid took the opportunity to highlight her 10-year career with Versace through campaigns, fashion shows and red carpet appearances. As well as thanking the designer, Gigi signed off her post, “4ever your girl.” We're not crying, you are!

Donatella’s leadership has been instrumental in maintaining Versace’s reputation for bold, glamorous designs. However, Capri’s focus on profitability has led to a shift in direction, including a push for more accessible products and higher price points. The brand's revenues have reportedly declined, prompting discussions of a sale.

Italian luxury house Versace has named its successor to Donatella Versace, who is stepping down as chief creative officer, a role that she has held since 1997.
