Gianni Versace's Books

Published to accompany an exhibition of Versace design that opened in 1997 - With commentary on the major inspirations and themes of the designer, his creative interpretations of the past, his visions of costumes for the opera and the dance, his ideas for the male and his innovative uses of different materials.

From the theatrical to the whimsical, Gianni Versace's designs have something for everyone. On these pages, his sketches and finished works of haute couture, ready-to-wear, accessories, jewelry, and opera and ballet costumes as well as artworks created by and for Versace are interpreted by top photographers such as Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, and Bruce Weber. The pictures are accompanied by three very different kinds of writing: commentary by Hamish Bowles, Style Editor of American Vogue; a new short story by Isabella Bossi Fedrigotti, an Italian journalist and award-winning novelist; and a text by Lady Julia Trevelyan Oman.

The ever-changing look of Versace couture, as seen--and modeled--by the kings, queens, mega-models, and jokers of rock & roll. 280 illustrations, 200 in color.
