Born May 2, 1955, in Reggio Calabria, Italy, Donatella was the baby of the Versace family and, as she is quoted as saying, “…the best-dressed girl in the city”. She formed her own style as a teen, dyeing her hair platinum blonde and penning herself very dark eyes.Kristen McMenamy, Nadja Auermann, Claudia Schiffer, Helena Christensen, Eva Herzigova, Carla Bruni, Stephanie Seymour and the late, great Stella Tennant were also muses for Gianni. Artistic director Donatella Versace has since upheld her brother’s tradition of casting fashion’s famous faces in Versace shows – she invited Schiffer and Christensen, along with Naomi Campbell and Carla Bruni, to reunite on her spring/summer 2018 runway, wearing sumptuous gowns spun from gold lamé.

Having said this, the book doesn’t focus too much on the murder but tells about Gianni Versace’s upbringing, how he got into fashion, developed his empire, and the problem that arose from his death. Deborah Ball, a long-time Milan correspondent for The Wall Street Journal , conducted hundreds of interviews with Versace family members, Gianni Versace’s lovers and business rivals, models such as Naomi Campbell whom he helped shoot to international stardom and fashion industry icons, including Anna Wintour, the legendary editor of Vogue. Hear the names Kate, Naomi, Linda, Christy and Cindy, and one word immediately springs to mind: supers. The members of fashion’s favourite girl gang are not only powerful as a group, they remain as influential as ever as individuals, too. The modelling world’s original movers and shakers, these women’s impact on the industry was such that it is still being felt to this day. Even though, as mentioned, I am not really interested in fashion, I found it a riveting tale, told in a fascinating way.Donatella took on the position of Artistic Director for the Versace Group after her brother was killed in 1997, and her brother, Santo, became the CEO. She also serves as Vice President of the board of directors. Links to Famous Movie Stars and Musicians An excellent marketing and business book about how brands are created.
