Chace Crawford has reportedly been lined up to be the new face of Versace.
The ‘Gossip Girl’ star – who plays Nate Archibald in the hit US TV show – is
said to be close to signing a deal to replace ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ actor Patrick
Dempsey as the face of the prestigious Italian fashion label.
Versace released a statement pointing out the 23-year-old actor has worn
clothes from the company to three big events recently – Fashion Rocks, the
MTV Video Music Awards and his ‘Gossip Girl’ co-star Blake Lively’s 21st
birthday party.
When the label were approached about the rumors of signing Chace, a
spokesperson said: “We have been working hard to develop our relationship
with Chace - and that is all we can say on the subject.
“Patrick Dempsey is contracted with us through to Spring/Summer 2009. It is
undetermined who will replace him at this time.”
Chace has shot to fame starring in ‘Gossip Girl’ as Nate – a troubled rich
student who is renowned for wearing a variety of sharp and trendy outfits.
