On the heels of the recent announcement of Versace’s re-launch of their younger, hipper, more affordable offshoot Versus, we recently found out that Christopher Kane will be temporarily joining the company’s team to create a line of handbags and shoes for the rejuvenated brand.
The British designer isn’t new to the company, though. He has worked with Versace’s Autelier Couture line and even consulted on some of their accessories making this new Versus collaboration right up his alley.
Kane was recently in the spotlight at London Fashion Week with his new autumn/winter collection. The up-and-coming designer has quite a celebrity following and has been showcased on several popular retail sites including Net-a-Porter.
Look for more info about his Versace Versus bag and shoe collection at Milan Fashion Week, which is right around the corner. Evidently Kane’s mentor Donatella Versace will be making the announcement herself. Now that’s flattery indeed.
