Fashion Winter 2011 | Versace
Sunday, March 7th, 2010
The 2010 2011 fall winter collection of Donatella Versace took a very different path from the pastels of his last spring-summer collection 2010. This time, the dark colours were the dominant palette of a minimalist collection with more emphasis on tailoring through asymmetric and geometric cuts.
The show opened with the sound of motorcycle engines, which anticipated the influence of riders that can be found in this collection: leather jackets, suede trousers with leather panels and lots of zippers.
The dresses had a futuristic air with geometric metal panels. But it was not all about sexy dresses, there were also sweater dresses, tuxedo jackets, and even a camel coat.

“He doesn’t stop thinking and innovating,” said Donatella Versace about Christopher Kane. “He respects women and loves working with them. Look at him.”

As he showed off the approachable young simplicity of a circle skirt—worn with a T-shirt, fluffy angora cardigan, and a pair of lace-up biker boots with silver metal-grille toe caps—his boss threw a sidelong glance and flinched congenially at the sight of the flat heels, and sighed, “Oh, don’t show me them again.”
