Donatella Versace cut a chic figure as she joined Kate Moss and Amber Valletta at Tramp nightclub in London on Thursday evening. 

The Italian fashion designer, 69, who recently stepped down as Creative Director of fashion brand Versace founded by her late brother Gianni, was spotted for the first time since her departure was announced.

For the outing, Donatella rocked a black leather jacket paired with embellished blue denim jeans.

She completed the stylish ensemble with a black, skin-тιԍнт top and toted her essentials in a mini black quilted handbag. 

The businesswoman further accessorised her look with hoop earrings and wore a radiant makeup look, while styling her blonde locks in voluminous waves for the evening.

Meanwhile, supermodel Kate, 51, showcased her legs in a black halterneck mini dress.

The Italian fashion designer was also joined by supermodel Kate Moss, 51, who showcased her legs in a stylish black halterneck mini dress 

She paired the dress with black fishnet тιԍнтs and layered up in a chic cream faux-fur coat to stay warm. 

The mother-of-one added inches to her frame with pointed black court heels and carried a mini black handbag. 

Kate accessorised with a stack of chunky gold bangles and statement earrings, finishing the look with a voluminous blowout of her blonde locks. 

Meanwhile, Amber Valletta, 51, looked effortlessly chic in a black tailored coat and matching skinny jeans.

She added height with a pair of pointed black boots and carried her essentials in a black Yves Saint Laurent handbag. 

The American model and actress kept accessories minimal with silver teardrop earrings and opted for a natural makeup palette. 

Donatella’s outing comes after she left her role as the boss of the fashion giant founded by her late brother Gianni amid ‘issues’ between her and the company which bought the label out in 2018.

The Italian fashionista has stood down as creative director, a job she has held since Gianni’s death in 1997 and has been replaced by Dario Vitale seven years after Capri Holdings purchased Versace.

They announced her departure on their Instagram earlier this month and revealed that the designer, who is the flamboyant face of the firm, will ᴀssume the role of chief brand ambᴀssador from April 1 – a far lesser role, say fashion observers. 

‘In her new role, she will dedicate herself to the support of Versace’s philanthropic and charitable endeavours and remain an advocate for the brand globally.’

Speaking of her exit, Donatella said: ‘Championing the next generation of designers has always been important to me.

‘It’s been the greatest honour of my life to carry on my brother Gianni’s legacy. He was the true genius but I hope to have some of his spirit and tenacity.’

Sources close to both parties say that things have been ‘very difficult’ between Donatella and Capri for some time despite her being hailed as the saviour of the brand by attracting A-list celebrities to wear her clothes and post about them on Instagram.

In the last year alone Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Dua Lipa, Olivia Rodrigo, and Sabrina Carpenter have worn the designs, as well as Anne Hathaway and Lady Gaga.

Her following consists of new talent like Lil Nas X, Taylor, Miley Cyrus, K-Pop Stars as well as Hollywood legends who she continues to work with the likes of Angelina Jolie, Sir Elton John and Cher. 

She also designed the iconic green Versace silk chiffon dress which Jennifer Lopez wore to the 42nd Grammy Awards ceremony on February 23 2000 and rewore it in 2019.

Donatella is the most followed fashion designer in the world on social media with over 12 million followers.

A fashion insider told the Mail: ‘Versace now faces an enormous risk without her. Versace is now Donatella-less Versace and that now begs the question that without her designs and relationships with talent, who will wear the brand now?

‘She has had a huge cultural impact in the fashion world that she has even watched her own creations have a rebirth, like JLo’s green dress.

‘Donatella has always been the curator of talent around Versace – she brought in Madonna, Whitney and others during the Gianni era and continues to do that to this day – truly a pop culture barometer. How many female designers have grown a company that is worth $2.1 billion dollars?

‘No one can dispute that Gianni was a genius – but also no one can dispute Donatella’s success with Versace after her brother’s pᴀssing.’

Speaking of replacing Donatella, former Miu Miu design director said: ‘I am truly honoured to join Versace as the chief creative officer and to be a part of this special and powerful fashion luxury house created by Gianni and Donatella.

Gianni died in July 1997 after being sH๏τ in the head while climbing the steps of his Miami Beach mansion aged 50 

‘The House of Versace has a unique heritage that has spanned decades and has shaped the history of fashion.

‘I want to express my sincere thank you to Donatella for her trust in me, and for her tireless dedication to the extraordinary brand that Versace is today.

‘It is a privilege to contribute to the future growth of Versace and its global impact through my vision, expertise and dedication.’
