Dario Vitale helped make Miu Miu a top fashion brand. Now he's set to be Versace's chief creative officer, a role Donatella Versace held for 28 years.

It’s the end of an era at the House of Medusa—and the start of a new one. On Thursday, Versace announced that Donatella Versace, the pure embodiment of the brand’s va-va-voom glamor, is stepping down as creative director after nearly three decades. Her successor is Dario Vitale, a rising star who was most recently the design director of Miu Miu.

Versace is in my DNA and always in my heart,” the Italian fashion maven wrote on Instagram, where she announced who will replace her.
