It may not stand out at fashion shows as much as her sky-high stilettos, but earthquake victims in China felt its power this week when Donatella visited them with Jet Li — even if they weren’t quite sure who she was. Versace is funding the rebuilding of an elementary school in Sanjiang through the Jet Li One Foundation.
