that are at the very core of their “design DNA.” In this episode, we explore the distinctive style of the house of Versace. The genius of Gianni Versace was his unification of contemporary culture and high art into clothes that were daring, sexy and exuberantly colored. His stunning collections were a tangible expression of his “joie de vivre” which was tragically cut short in 1997 when he was murdered outside his Miami home. After his death, his sister, Donatella Versace, took on the design reigns and has taken the house to new levels, while still maintaining the glamour and sex-appeal of the Versace brand.
