Versace has announced the opening of its first boutique in Rio de Janeiro. This marks the brand’s first Direct Operated Store in Brazil created by Donatella Versace in collaboration with the English architect Jamie Fobert. The boutique occupies an area of 130 square metres, blending the opulence and traditional architectural values of Italy with the dynamism and energy of Versace today. Marble mosaics, brass and perspex create a luxurious and contemporary ambience in which to present the Versace prêt-à-porter collections and accessories for men and women. Donatella Versace has designed for the Rio de Janeiro opening a limited edition of the iconic Signature bag – Olá Versace. This special edition is the epitome of luxury and glamour with an artisan touch, with gold studs and trimmed with hand-woven leather, embellished with a sophisticated combination of different materials and colours. The Olá Versace bag is available in multicolour calfskin or in precious python skin in gold. Each exclusive piece within the special edition comes with a detachable leather tag inscribed in gold Olá Versace.
