Versace Said To Drop Fendi Collaboration At Secret Second Show

Fendace? Versendi? Either way, Milan Fashion Week has a new hot ticket.

Versace, the Milanese fashion brand owned by Michael Kors parent Capri Holdings is getting ready to reveal a collaboration with Rome-based Fendi, according to people familiar with the matter who declined to be identified as the project is still under wraps.

Yesterday, Versace sent out a cryptic gold-and-white “save the date” — signed by creative director and former owner Donatella Versace — to a small group of fashion insiders inviting them to a Sunday event, although her runway show was still scheduled for its slot two days earlier, sparking whispers of a second, secret show.


Now, we know what’s behind the buzz: Donatella has been working with both of LVMH-owned Fendi’s creative directors, Silvia Venturini Fendi and Kim Jones, on a line set to be revealed at the Sunday event.

Rumours have swirled for months about a collaboration between Donatella Versace, Kim Jones and Kim Kardashian West, fuelled by a July post to Kardashian West’s Instagram account showing the three together with the caption “LEGENDS!!!” But the mega-influencer’s connection to the collection to be unveiled on Sunday could not be confirmed.
