Belgian designer Pieter Mulier has been named the new Chief Creative Officer of Versace, succeeding Dario Vitale, who announced his departure from the fashion house in December 2025.

Lorenzo Bertelli, Executive Chairman of Versace, commented 'We are confident Pieter will fully express Versace's potential and create a profound dialogue with the history and the distinctive aesthetics of the brand; we are enthusiastic about starting this journey together. Versace's identity is distinctive and clear, there is no need to reinvent it, and Pieter will know how to reinterpret the brand'.
