Versus Spring/summer 2005

What happened? Did she have a show this season for Versus?

ONE IS BETTER THAN TWO: After putting the Paris couture show on hold indefinitely last season, now Donatella Versace has changed her usual joint Versus and Versace runway formula by taking the secondary line off the runway and into the showroom, where it will be presented after the Paris shows together with Versace Jeans Couture. Rather than being a cost-cutting move, reports are that new chief executive officer Giancarlo Di Risio, who is no stranger to the world of diffusion lines, wants to streamline the company's many secondary lines into fewer and more powerful collections.

It's about damn time! This is a wonderful idea.

Am I the only one who thinks it’s a bit weird to try strengthening the secondary line(s) by taking it off the runway?

But then again it wouldn’t hurt to cut down on the number of secondary lines. It’s even confusing themselves.

In fact I recently saw a genuine Versus jacket with Versace Jeans Couture written all over the lining…

I think it's actually a good idea. Versace is the line that brings in the most buisness and publicity. They need to to concentrate on Versace and Atelier Versace at the moment, they need to get it back to it's former glory and taking focus off of Versus and the other diffusion lines can't hurt.

I think they should get rid of Versus completely.
