Donatella Versace, we love you! This collection was everything Versace is meant to be—glamorous, bold, and absolutely unapologetic. With the news that Donatella is stepping down as creative director, this show carried extra weight. It wasn’t just a collection; it was a statement, a celebration of the house’s DNA, and possibly a farewell to an era.
The venue, a repurposed tram depot in Milan, set the stage for a dramatic show. As guests took their seats, there was an undeniable sense of anticipation. With rumors of a potential sale of the brand swirling, the question lingered—what is Versace without Donatella? But tonight, she reminded us that no one knows this brand like she does.
From the moment the first models hit the runway, it was clear that this was a love letter to the past, present, and future of Versace. The collection opened with sculptural coats and gowns crafted from Versace Home duvets, a playful nod to fashion as both home and armor. Then came the sleek, body-hugging silhouettes, plunging necklines, and structured tailoring that define the brand’s signature sex appeal.
A Western influence weaved its way through the collection, with denim, patchwork, and cowboy-inspired boots making an unexpected yet fitting appearance. Amidst the classic Versace opulence—metallics, baroque prints, and gold accents—were modern, edgy twists like oversized rhinestone embroidery and 3D-printed designs. Standout moments included Alex Consani shimmering in silver, Lila Moss serving edgy cool, and Mona Tougaard closing the show in a strapless black dress that revealed the house’s iconic print underneath.
But the most poignant moment? The collection’s finale featured dresses inspired by Donatella’s first show in 1998. The metallic gowns, unraveling like liquid gold and silver, felt like a full-circle moment—a reminder that Versace isn’t just a brand, it’s a legacy.
Whatever the future holds for Versace, one thing is certain: Donatella did herself and her brother proud.
