  About Versace - From an Italian Province to International Presence

"Now it’s all about Versace, you copy my style"

These were the lyrics of rapper 2Pac (may he rest in peace) as he accused his former opponent The Notorious B.I.G. (R.I.P.) in the song "Hit Em Up!". It was with him that he famously had the biggest beef in hip hop (East Coast vs. West Coast). - When one vocalist dedicates a track to another to "diss" them for the full length of the song, almost anything can be used as an insult.

In the case of the above quotation, however, Tupac Shakur's target is mistakenly criticized. Because already in the 90s, all rappers who cared about style were wearing Versace. And the hype continues to this day. In 2013, the to-date most successful hip hop group Migos released a song called Versace, in which the brand name is mentioned 164 times.

Nowadays, it's no longer just about the Versace sunglasses that Biggie used to wear, but about all Versace glasses, jeans, leather goods, jewellery and even furnishings. Everything Gianni Versace put his hands on turned to gold. And this is still true today despite the turbulent history of the company.

  Gianni Versace - Legends Never Die

Giovanni Maria "Gianni" Versace will forever remain a name that has become an integral part of (fashion) history books. Born and raised in the province of Reggio Calabria in southern Italy, the golden boy turned out to be a talented craftsman at an early age. He looked over the shoulder of his mother, a seamstress, so often that he quickly mastered her craft himself. At the beginning of the 1970s, the talented twenty-four-year-old set out to swap his rural Calabrian homeland for sparkling Milan, where he would quickly achieve fame as a tailor.

It was not long before he was hired as a designer at Genny, Complice and Callaghan. In 1978, Gianni decided to live out his creative freedom to the full and founded his own company with his brother Santo Versace. Shortly afterwards, the fashion label Gianni Versace S.p.A. launched the first women's collection on the market. It was a direct hit, like a double espresso on an empty stomach. Further successes followed, which were awarded with various prizes and quickly brought Versace to the top of the fashion Olympics.

Gianni met the challenges of time with his creations, and he was often right on time with the materials used, the cuts he chose and the colours he combined. His figure-hugging dresses, short skirts and tight trousers were always popular. With opulent embellishments and decorations as well as low décolletés and colourful silk shirts, he permanently delivered popular fashions that contrasted with the conservative offer presented at the time.

There was also something mystical about Versace. Inspired by ancient Rome and Greek mythology, Gianni chose elements that catapulted the wearers of his clothes into a bygone era. The scarce pieces showed a lot of skin, gladiator style and flashy symbols, of which the Versace Medusa is the best known. The youthful second line Versus by Versace can be easily recognized by the lion, which it carries as its own Sub-Versace logo.

The death of Gianni Versace in July 1997 shook the whole fashion industry. His friends, who were also always loyal representatives of the brand, showed their sadness and wore their favourite Versace clothes to pay their last respects to the fashion designer who died far too early. The loyal circle of friends includes world stars like Elton John, Madonna, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Claudia Schiffer and Christy Turlington.

The celebrities Demi Moore, Elizabeth Hurley, Emma Roberts, Scarlett Johansson, Bruno Mars, Kendall Jenner, Johnny Depp, Amal Clooney and her husband George Clooney are also fans of the unique Versace design through and through. And not forgetting the Kardashians, who can't get enough of Versace. The legendary rapper BIG appreciated the Versace glasses quality already in the 1990s. No wonder, because the Versace prescription glasses easily compete with brands like Gucci, Prada or Tom Ford. Only with Gianni Versace's famous friend-foe, Giorgio Armani, we should not compare Versace. The rivals were rarely on good terms with each other. Whereas Gianni exuded sensuality and sexuality with his fashion, he accused Armani's fashion as being designed for nuns. The radical contrast with which Gianni declared war on Haute Couture and Alta Moda is still alive today through his sister, Donatella Versace. The fashion industry has become much more relaxed and bold, which today makes the Versace brand appear less rebellious by contrast.

  Most Popular Styles

In principle, you can't go wrong with any Versace glasses frame. Every single model featuring the Medusa logo radiates a magical aura. With this in mind, you can also feel confident choosing from the Versace Eyewear collection 2019 or 2018 or even older collections. Currently, the three top sellers include the Versace glasses VE3218, which stands out with its golden temples, the somewhat more discreet Versace glasses VE3186 and the Versace glasses VE3175 with round Versace Medusa logo in the front temples.

A typical model for men, which is much more reserved than the above gold frames, is the Versace glasses VE1184 with the almost hidden logo in black on black. A popular pair for women, which is also are a little more subtle than the average Versace eyewear, is the Versace VE3267. As a cat eye frame, it has a shape that is particularly feminine.

Other frame variations that go down well are the square and round shapes. The round glasses are always full rim, and, especially with darker colours, stand out on pale skin. Half rim, frameless or transparent frames are perfect if you are looking for something a little more subtle.
