What about Versace?

rbaby · Oct 23rd, 2007, 09:05 PM

I was just wondering why there isn't a Versace forum here. Am I the only fan? I think the Medusa logo is the best icon in fashion. Is it just me?

I think they don't get a lot of coverage here because Versace doesn't really focus a lot of attention on handbags, and what they have put out recently has been ... very Donatella.

I agree, I've seen some nice Versace bags esp. the newer ones but it's not known to be a handbag house.

Or maybe though they have great stuff they are not doing enough PR about it (look what a mini histoire can do). They don't have as much magazine coverage / spotlight either. I think their quilted black patent handbag is awesome, but it was not in ELLE's blurb about black handbags in the past issue.

I bought a genuine Versace messenger bag on eBay, a few months ago to bring on holiday. But when it arrived it was tiny and practically useless. I should have studied the dimensions more closely. To be honest though, Versace isn't the first name to come up re handbags.

The same thing happened to me last year.

I bought a genuine Versace on eBay and when it arrived it was way smaller than what I thought. And I have never used it ~ big waste of $400.

Live & learn!!!!

Versace doesn't seem to make handbags for everyday in a functional sense. I love Versace's eyeglasses, I've been a collector for 5 years but I can't give their handbags a second look. Also I think they're ridiculously overpriced.

I've wondered that too, but you can start a thread here (the L.A.M.B. fans have one here as well)

I love quite a few of the Versace handbags I've seen online but I don't believe I have ever seen any of them IRL! They are very pricey and it's much harder to part with $2,500 for something you "think" is fabuous than say a $300 HH! DOesn anyone havepics of their Vbag?
