Milan Fashion Week: Versace brings sexy back
|
The sexpot is back at Versace, where Donatella Versace showed a bang-up collection Friday night. With the 1980s revival in full swing, Versace smartly returned to some of her brother Gianni's most iconic design codes, and yet everything felt fresh and modern.
Baroque prints in fluorescent brights were splashed across
tight-fitting jersey tops and postage-stamp-sized miniskirts, some with
a layer of peekaboo plastic on top. (Start trolling vintage stores for
those old Versace Medusa prints now).
Form-fitting jackets in black-and-white optical prints, worn with leggings, were a nod to the collection's "Alice in Wonderland" inspiration, as mentioned in the show notes. (With all the hype surrounding Tim Burton's coming film version, Versace's timing couldn't be better.)
