The latest designer to join Instagram is Donatella Versace, and to say we’re juiced about it would be an understatement. We didn’t realize how empty our Instagram feeds felt without the presence of the designer, but now that she’s here, we’re oh so thankful.

Versace’s inaugural post on the social media outlet is a photo of her taking a selfie – excuse us, usie – with Gigi Hadid, who looks about a million feet tall in a look from the label’s Spring 2016 collection. Could this mean that Versace has tapped the buzzy model as their next campaign star? Wouldn’t be a bad choice for the brand at all.

Instagram’s head of fashion partnerships Eva Chen celebrated the designer’s arrival with a photo of herself and Ms. Versace who donned an Instagram hoodie, expertly accessorized with a thick black belt, sunglasses and colorful printed pants. “If her accessorizing of #TheInstagramSweatshirtis any indication, her Instagrams are going to be epic!” Chen wrote, basically echoing our own sentiments.

What we’re still trying to figure out is why it took Versace so long to join Instagram in the first place. Based off the strength of the ice bucket challenge video she blessed us with last year, it’s clear she’s the perfect addition to our timelines. We’re just glad Ms. Versace has finally realized it.
