Supermodels in Gold and Silk

Gianni Versace founded his house in Milan in 1978, using the Medusa head as his logo. In the early 1990s his runways starred supermodels such as Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington, who in 1991 lip-synced to George Michael's Freedom! '90.

Versace was known for bold baroque prints, gold scrolls and bright silks. In 1994 Elizabeth Hurley wore a black Versace dress held together with gold safety pins to a film premiere, making headlines worldwide.

Gianni was killed in Miami in 1997, and his sister Donatella took over as creative director. In 2017 she honored him with a tribute show, reuniting the supermodels on the runway, and in 2000 Jennifer Lopez's green jungle print dress became a famous moment.
