Chief designer and Vice President of the Versace group, Donatella Versace, 61, has opened the doors to the fashion house's luxury resort in Dubai which she helped design. Billed as 'the most luxurious hotel in the Middle East', the five-star Palazzo Versace Dubai is meant to look like a 16th-century Italian palace with subtle traces of Arabian architecture and vaulted ceilings hand-detailed in gold.
The opulent hotel named boasts 215 rooms and suites all of which were designed by Donatella, a top-floor, two-bedroom duplex imperial suite with a private terrace, pool, Jacuzzi and skyline views.
Guests can indulge in fine dining in one of the eight restaurants and bars in the hotel.
