Donatella Versace is letting everyone know that she doesn’t support the new hotel in Miami named after her.

In a statement shared on May 10, the 70-year-old fashion designer that she is not affiliated with the new Donatella Boutique Hotel & Restaurant in Miami, that is scheduled to open later this month.

“To try to capitalize on our tragedy and my name for profit is disgraceful,” she added.

The new hotel, which is a Nakash and Vida & Estilo Hospitality group property, is scheduled to open on Wednesday, May 21.

The Nakash family reportedly purchased the Versace mansion in 2013 for $41.5 million, according to Women’s Wear Daily.

There’s a scene in “The Devil Wears Prada” where Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestly is fighting to keep her top fashion magazine job. Over coffee in Paris, Priestly slips a piece of paper to her boss containing the names of “designers, photographers, editors, writers, models — all of whom found by me, nurtured by me and have promised me they will follow me whenever and if ever I choose to leave.” Naturally, the boss reconsidered and Priestly won the day.

A stylist friend recently recalled this scene to me in the context of Donatella Versace, the lauded designer (and star in her own right) who has been the face of her namesake fashion house for nearly 30 years. A January report said Versace’s contract with her brand’s owner, Capri Holdings, expires in February. Chatter from Milan wonders if that deal will be renewed.

It would be a fascinating pivot for Versace,...

King Charles and Queen Camilla are facing the loss of one of their favorite family members, and fans are reaching out with comments of love and support.

King Charles and Queen Camilla have faced a challenging year with the news that King Charles had cancer, sidelining the monarch while he recovered.

King Charles received weekly cancer treatments and paused them only because of a trip to Australia and Samoa, which he undertook with Queen Camilla.

After this trip, during which Monsters and Critics confirmed that different state leaders snubbed King Charles in the controversial visit, news came out that a family member was sick and needed urgent care.

Loving animals is a trait among the royals that goes back farther than Queen Elizabeth and her love of Pembroke Welsh Corgis and dorgis (dachshund-corgi mixes), and sadly, one of the family pets has passed away.

Queen Camilla’s beloved pet dog,...

All eyes were on Zendaya as she stepped out in a flapper-esque vintage Roberto Cavalli dress at the Green Carpet Fashion Awards on Wednesday night at 1 Hotel’s Harriet’s in West Hollywood.

As co-chair of the event, which also drew Chrissy Teigen, Helen Hunt, Jennifer Coolidge, Michaela Jaé Rodriguez, and Annie Lennox, Zendaya has long embraced vintage for red carpet appearances.

Most impressively, her last look — a chrome suit of armor from Mugler’s Fall Winter 1995 couture collection — reportedly generated $13.3 million in media exposure after wearing the piece to the Dune: Part Two premiere in London.

To mark this occasion, she rocked a silver roaring twenties-inspired gown from Cavalli’s spring 2011 collection. But the night was about much more than just sustainable sartorial selections.

“Fashion has always been a lens that we use to look at the world,” the awards show’s founder Livia Firth explained. “When you want...

It’s been almost exactly a year since NBA great Dwyane Wade debuted as the new face of Versace men’s eyewear, and like an anniversary gift, there’s a new campaign to mark the ongoing partnership.

The Hall of Fame champion dons sunglass and optical styles from the latest men’s line in a series of images and videos for the fashion house run by Donatella Versace. The new campaign debuts Versace Profiles, the start of a new project from Versace that is designed to offer a more personal look at the model who stars in the campaign. As such, Wade was tasked with building a personal profile by way of choosing “items precious to him and to share the stories behind them, all while his physical profile is documented in photographs,” per Monday’s launch. He selected items like his first NBA championship ring, a camera and a photo of his daughter,...

Actors and actresses might approach red carpet dressing with all sorts of mindsets — nervous and unsure, risk-averse or highly opinionated, for example — but Wayman + Micah say Taraji P. Henson falls into a client category every stylist should love.

“We started working together last April when we started promoting The Color Purple, and it’s been an amazing partnership ever since,” says Wayman Bannerman, who alongside partner Micah McDonald also counts Niecy Nash-Betts, Colman Domingo and Da’Vine Joy Randolph among their starry client roster. “We have had such a blast being creative over the exciting and extensive press tour. [Taraji] has a great personal sense of style and loves to dress up, so we are always excited to show her new pieces, because she gets so excited.”

Taraji P. Henson hits the carpet at the Emmys, where she took the stage to present alongside Joan Collins for outstanding limited or anthology series.
