Versace – spring 2008 (RTW)

Perfection was achieved by Donatella Versace as her spring 2008 collection, proved to the world that Versace is here to stay. After many seasons of critics, branding Donatella’s aesthetics as "narrow", "un-evolving" and even "too commercial", a parade of outfits that were trend worthy, fresh and sexy with out being too “Italian bling” silenced them! The clothes spoke for themselves, Donatella, finally gained full confidence in her craft, mastered drapery and experimented with different techniques, and styles, from what she was generally expected to produce. This, in turn brought about a collection which was “new” in every sense of the word for the glamorous fashion house. There was an overwhelming sense of ease poured in to the cloths; color was a huge theme with extreme colors and all the immaculate shades in-between. Blousy tops, short togas, open-backed draped shifts, loose flattering trousers, trench coat dresses, de-structured coats and electric colored “baby dolls” and gowns ruled the ramp. With such a huge amount of variety one can definitely say that Versace will be one of the houses that will offer the most for their customers this coming spring. The collection is meant to dress women, who want “sophistication with a twist” and this surely describes “Versace” for spring 2008.
