The Italian house welcomes the Year of the Rat with a special range of red accessories from its Virtus line

The notion of seeing red usually carries negative connotations, but when it comes to Chinese New Year, then the redder, the better. So if you&rsquo;re looking to reap a little (or a lot) more luck in 2020, look no further than Versace. The Italian house is ushering in the Year of the Rat with a special capsule of accessories from its <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/versace-s-virtus-is-the-must-have-it-bag-this-fall">Virtus line</a>, all hued in auspicious shades of red. &nbsp;

First introduced for <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/luxury-meets-grunge-versace-f-w19-campaign">Fall/Winter 2019</a>, the <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/versace-s-virtus-is-the-must-have-it-bag-this-fall">Virtus series</a> is named after the ancient Roman deity of bravery and military strength. Imbued with the same qualities of courage and character, the Virtus heralds a new age of powerful femininity, expressed through boldness of design. The signature motif of the collection takes shape as a Barocco-style letter V (for Versace and Virtus), enriched by intricate curlicues of acanthus leaves.

Two Virtus styles are refreshed in vibrant red for the festivities &ndash; a chain wallet and a top-handle shoulder bag. The latter is also available in classic black. Both are crafted from supple leather in a quilted diamond finish, and feature the ornate V logo in a combination of gold-tone hardware and clear crystal. The small top-handle comes with a detachable shoulder strap for dual functionality, while the boxy wallet can be suspended from a delicate jewellery-inspired chain.

The Chinese New Year collection is exclusively available in the Asia-Pacific region, and in Singapore at the Versace boutiques in Marina Bay Sands and Paragon.
