1990's Gianni Versace Couture Rare Novelty-Print Cropped Jacket

The first Versace boutique was opened in 1978 and its popularity was immediate. Today, Versace is one of the world's leading international fashion houses. Gianni Versace redefined fashion by combining it with rock 'n' roll, art and celebrity. By merging the worlds of fashion and entertainment, his shows became pop-culture events. This iconic 1991 "Around the World" print jacket is a perfect example of his genius. The garment closes with the most beautiful purple-enamel buttons while the cuffs are adorned with the classic gold sun-heads motif. I adore the long,lean sleeves and fitted hourglass silhouette. This rare "Around the World" print is one of his most celebrated patterns and the striking harlequin silk-lining finishes this jacket off with a timeless, playful vibe. "That is the key of this collection, being yourself. Don't be into trends. Don't make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way to live." Gianni Versace
