Versace Narrows Losses

Accessory sales and a softer image have helped Versace narrow its losses in 2005, the Italian fashion house said this week.

Versace expects to post a loss of €15 million for the year, compared to €95 million last year.

The brand traditionally known for its brash image and bright colors has benefited from a softening of its look into sexy everyday wear and strong sales of accessories such as the Madonna handbag. The €1,000 bag, designed by the pop diva herself, has been a sellout hit.

Looking ahead, Versace said it expects to continue to lessen its losses thanks to new management and its fresh product mix.
