Italian fashion house Prada announced Thursday that it had reached a deal with US group Capri Holdings to buy Versace for 1.25 billion euros ($1.39 billion).

The acquisition will create a luxury group with revenues of over 6 billion euros, which could better compete with industry giants such as the French conglomerates LVMH and Kering amid a slowdown in the sector worldwide.
