WHAT: Versace Spring/Summer 2018. The Versace "Tribute" Collection. It has been 20 years since Gianni Versace's death and his sister, Donatella, who took the realm as Creative Director for the iconic Italian fashion house, decided to pay an homage to her brother. At the conclusion of the Versace Spring 2018 Collection, the curtains opened to show Carla (Bruni-Sarkozy), Claudia (Schiffer), Naomi (Campbell), Cindy (Crawford) and Helena (Christensen): Some of the TOP ORIGINAL SUPERMODELS and Gianni Versace Model Muses...in Versace gold chainmail dresses...

INSPIRATION: According to the New York Times: Donatella went into the archives: a 10,760-square-foot storage facility in Novara, Italy, a town west of Milan, which houses 13,000 pieces by Mr. Versace. And she came out with a collection that would be a celebration of 12 classic prints her brother created between 1991 and 1997, including the “Warhol” (a primary-colored riot of Marilyn and James Dean portraits), the animalière (leopard) and the baroque (ornate gold squiggles). And while she remade a few pieces in their entirety, most she decided to reclaim via her own specifications: more day wear, sharper shoulders, fewer slits. What would her brother say about the result? Ms. Versace laughed. “Bitch!” Then she added, “No, he’d love it.”
