Versace named this line after Virtus, the Roman deity of courage and strength, and gave it a new emblem: a Barocco V. The Versace Virtus Belt Bag carries that V at its centre, introduced on the Fall-Winter 2019 runway.
Look closely at the hardware and it reads like a sculpture: one arm of the V is wrapped in wheat-like leaves and a small flower, the other in a climbing vine, both ending in baroque scrolls. It sits on black leather quilted in the V pattern, with a gold-tone curb chain.
Harper's Bazaar Singapore reported the line's arrival in September 2019 and its V-pattern quilting, and the Virtus campaign was fronted by Bella Hadid, photographed by Mert and Marcus, as The Fashionography recorded.
Compact at 18 cm and made in Italy, it is a bold piece of modern Versace, worn close on its gold chain from day into evening.
