Italian luxury fashion brand Versace (Milan) is scouting locations for a new Uptown New York location to replace its Fifth Avenue store that closed in February, reports WWD. Versace recently opened a 3000-square-foot store on Green Street in SoHo

“I’m so excited to bring Versace back to SoHo. NYC and its downtown attitude has been such an important part of the brand and such a big source of inspiration for me,” said chief creative officer Donatella Versace.

The SoHo space features marble floors with the brand’s signature Greca pattern and Medusa-shaped sculptures. A series of black-and-white images by photographer Ethan James Green featuring models posing on downtown streets were commissioned to celebrate the opening.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
