I'm not impressed too, but I still hope he can make Versace less cheap

Style.com has named Kristian as one of the seasons most promising new talents:

Quote:
Donatella Versace may have reinvented herself as a minimalist of sorts, but her latest protégé, Norway-born Royal College of Art grad Kristian Aadnevik, loves putting on the glitz. Witness his gilt-edged coats and feathered frocks.

I think Kristian has an incredibly strong signature. His work may not be terribly ground-breaking, and his development from season to season is obviously mainly in the detail, but his infatuation with glamour and women is perfect for Milan, and for Donatella. I'm convinced he'd be much better for the job than Chris Kane, who's also rumored to be taking over at Versace.

Take a look at his autumn/winter 2007 collection. It is incredible.

I would like to double that.

Please explain!!!

Is this for another line? Or the main Versace line? Isn't Donatella still designing?

^ He's like a protege or something, but to my knowledge this isn't designed for the Versace label.

Yeah, I think it's a time limited protege project or something like that. Donatella has mentioned that he would be perfect for Versace several times, though...

The Protege Project is a project sponsored by the Australian Wool industry.

See http://www.awiprotegeproject.com/

Mentors, including Donatella and Lagerfeld, each chose a protege. I'm pretty sure it was only for duration of the project.
