The face that launched a campaign
There is no doubt that Donatella Versace has a signature look. And it appears that Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci has taken notice.
Recently, it was announced that Donatella Versace is the new face of Givenchy’s fall/winter 2015/2016 campaign. “So proud and honored to introduce my new ultimate icon: Donatella Versace,” revealed Tisci on his Instagram account.
Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, with Carine Roitfeld taking on the role of stylist, will take the photos. Hey Donatella, it must be nice to have two lucrative jobs!!
Condé Nast goes e-commerce
Like many publishing conglomerates, Condé Nast is moving onto the e-commerce platform. Condé Nast is transforming style.com into an e-commerce site that will promote and sell 100 to 200 fashion brands.
Though the transformation will support promote mostly fashion, the transfigured site will sell beauty products, travel, and new technologies. Condé Nast believes that the time is ripe to take advantage of the ever-growing e-commerce audience that they believe will easily meld with its print audiences from the publishing company’s wide range of print magazines (Vogue, Vanity Fair, GQ, Traveler, etc.)
“The audience of our magazines and Web sites around the globe amounts to more than 300 million, a huge base of support with whom we already have an active relationship. […] Our potential customer base is far higher than any fashion e-commerce business,” said Jonathan Newhouse, CEO of Condé Nast International as reported in fashionmag.com.
