What made Versace so famous?

1 Answer
What made Versace so famous?
Versace became famous for bold, sexy designs that stood out among other fashions of the late 1980s and 00s. More than any designer before him, the fashion house's founder, Gianni Versace, mined celebrity, music and pop art for inspiration, and his subversive, maximalist and unabashedly seductive designs infused high fashion with an entirely new ethos.
