Versace To Join With Jet Li For Children

Jet Li's One Foundation will get a major boost next month when Donatella Versace jets into Beijing to hold a special charity fashion show.

The show – to take place on November 13 – will be the first time a Versace fashion show has ever been held in China, and will present the brand’s women’s and menswear spring/summer 2009 collections. It will raise money for a series of new children’s centers designed to provide post-trauma and psychological relief in China’s Sichuan province, which was hit by a devastating earthquake in May. The first center will be opening in San Jiang next month.

Versace is also proud to announce that it has also created a very special Versace/One Foundation logo that will feature on limited edition designs in China, with 100 per cent of the proceeds going to the One Foundation.

The show will take place in a brand new facility located near Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.
