The designer also opened up about the infamous J.Lo dress and reflects on taking over Versace after her brother's murder (via toofab)
"We did the dress, and then you know, we're thinking about J.Lo," she explained."She is all about femininity ... it shows. She's a great artist. She can sing and she can act, she can do anything. She was confident and that you saw when she wore the dress and the world went crazy."
Though Donatella has taken Versace to new heights over the years, the designer admitted she wished she never inherited the fashion house after the murder of her brother and original founder Gianni Versace. "I wish it never happened ... it was a shock," she said."It was a shock because it happened in one minute. One minute he was there and then another minute he was gone. And I talked to him on the phone 25 minutes before he died. So when they gave me the news ... I said that's not possible, I just talked to Gianni."
"It was so sudden. And I think we talked to each other 25 minutes before it happened. He was in Miami, that was in Miami. It was early in the morning. [He said] 'I'm gonna go to buy magazines, I'll call you when I come back.' That's what he told me and he never came back," Donatella recalled. When Ratajkowski noted it must have been"bittersweet" to take over, Donatella added,"Mostly it was bitter."
