Their mother was a successful dressmaker with a little empire of her own in Reggio Calabria, Italy. Here, Giovanni \u2018Gianni\u2019 Versace worked as his mother\u2019s apprentice and learnt the art of dressmaking and design. Later, Gianni moved to Milan to establish the Versace brand with the help of his brother and sister, Santo and Donatella.<\/p>\n<h2>2) Versace\u00a0is the Inspiration For Google Images<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51941\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/1175982086.jpg\" alt=\"Versace and Google Images\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In 2000, Donatella Versace sent Jennifer Lopez a dress for her appearance at the Grammy Awards, the dress received such significant global media coverage that Google registered the user behavior as a sign to introduce the \u2018Google image\u2019 as an option when people search for something visually and thus find the desired pictures.<\/p>\n<h2>3) You\u2019re Probably Pronouncing It Wrong<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51942\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/versace-1629332263953250.jpg\" alt=\"How To Pronounce Versace\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In an interview with <em>Vogue<\/em>, Donatella Versace revealed that most people pronounce Versace wrong. She says that it\u2019s not \u2018Versachee\u2019 but \u2018Versach-eh\u2019<\/p>\n<h2>4) Versace VS Versace Collection<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51943\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/GettyImages-851635140.jpg\" alt=\"Versace Collection\" width=\"950\" height=\"633\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Versace is the main line that is often seen on the runway, whereas Versace Collection is a licenced diffusion line that only incorporates certain elements of the Gianni Versace brand with a younger and trendier spin. What\u2019s more, Versace Collection uses less expensive materials so it\u2019s generally more affordable.<\/p>\n<h2>5) Versace\u2019s Iconic Logo<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51944\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Versace-Emblem.jpg\" alt=\"Versace Logo\" width=\"3840\" height=\"2160\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Everyone knows that Versace\u2019s logo is the head of Medusa, but few people know about its meaning.<\/p>\n<p>Medusa was the Greek mythological figure known for having hair made of snakes and eyes that could turn men to stone. It is said that Gianni Versace wanted to use Medusa because her devastating beauty made everyone fall in love with her. He hoped that his clothing would produce the same dazzling effect.<\/p>\n<h2>6) Celebrity Status<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51948\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/0dc2e1da71f05d78645dac2f629d43e0.jpg\" alt=\"Gianni Versace and Madonna\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Gianni Versace was one of the first designers to invite celebrities to fashion shows. The designer was well acquainted with high-profile celebrities namely Michael Jackson, Madonna, Sting, Princess Diana, Elton John and more. So, he decided to feature celebrities in Versace\u2019s marketing campaigns and to invite them to sit front row at fashion shows. What better advertisement for a brand than having famous people as fans!<\/p>\n<h2>7) Gianni&#8217;s Last Fashion Show was a Week Before His Death<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51949\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/7b4299362011cdf7f939988a711a85cc.jpg\" alt=\"Gianni Versace Ritz Hotel\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Before he was murdered, Versace presented his final collection at the Ritz Hotel in Paris. Fifteen years after his death, Donatella hosted a fashion show at the Ritz Hotel in honour of her brother before the hotel closed for renovations.<\/p>\n<h2>8) Gianni Bequeath Half The Company To His Niece<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51950\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/180113-gianni-versace-heir-feature-10.jpg\" alt=\"Gianni Versace Niece\" width=\"978\" height=\"652\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Gianni believed he wouldn\u2019t survive a surgery to treat his cancer and created a will dictating who would be left in charge of his fashion empire. He left 50% of the company to his niece Allegra, who was only 11 at the time of his death. Allegra got her shares when she turned 18 in 2004 and has since joined the board of directors for Versace.<\/p>\n<h2>9) Versace Pieces Are Celebrated Like Fine Art<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51951\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/1569484288484.jpg\" alt=\"Versace Bags In Museums\" width=\"1240\" height=\"699\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Versace designs appear in museums all around the world, including Germany, Japan, Chicago, and London.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to designing his own collections, Gianni Versace was also known for his designs for theatre and films. He created costumes for various ballet and opera productions, often collaborating with Maurice Bejart. What\u2019s more, Bejart later honoured Versace in 2007 with a special ballet written for the 10th anniversary of his death.<\/p>\n<h2>10) His Legacy Continues<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51952\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Z-Gianni-1200-1.jpg\" alt=\"Versace Legacy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Even years after his death, Versace is still thriving in the fashion world. In 2012, fashion designer Giorgio Armani wrote about Gianni: \u2018Fifteen years after his death, what I remember of Gianni Versace? His incredible exuberance, a sense of happiness that mixes everything\u2014ideas, trends, memories, art\u2014with a sort of nonchalant vitality. He was a great creator.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re dreaming of owning your very own Versace piece but don\u2019t want to spend an arm and a leg \u2013 why not purchase pre-owned luxury items in excellent condition at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.luxity.co.za\">Luxity<\/a>!
