Before you see her speak at Vogue's Forces of Fashion conference in October, relive Donatella Versace’s best turns in the pages of Vogue.
brand in 1978, Donatella was his muse; the perfume, Blonde, was made in her honor in 1995. After Gianni’s untimely death in 1997, Donatella became the brand’s chief creative force. Since then, the Versace woman has been cut, carved, and crafted precisely in her likeness.
Donatella is blonde, so for Spring 2004’s Atelier Versace show, the models wore waist-length blonde wigs. Donatella loves heels, so for Spring 2014, platforms and block heels were exaggerated to nearly eight inches. Donatella often wears black, so when Stephanie Seymour returned to the Versace runway after a near-30-year absence, she did it in a cutaway black number.
If this seems like an exclusionary vision, it’s a testament to Donatella’s modernity that Versace has become the de facto wardrobe for women at the top of their game. The proof: Both Michelle Obama and Kim Kardashian West have worn dresses made from Donatella’s golden chain mail. Serena Williams is a longtime fan, choosing a sun yellow gown for her duties as this year’s Met Gala cohost.
Perhaps it will serve as walk-out music for Donatella Versace when she takes the stage at Vogue’s third annual Forces of Fashion conference this October?
