No, Versace Jeans Couture and Versace are not exactly the same. Versace is the overall name of the Italian fashion house founded by Gianni Versace in Milan in 1978. Versace Jeans Couture is a brand under the Versace umbrella. It was launched in 2018 when Versace's diffusion lines Versus and Versace Jeans merged. The line features apparel and accessories inspired by rock and roll and is sold at slightly more economical price points than pieces from the Versace haute couture collection.

Versace 1969 Abbigliamento Sportivo, often referred to as simply Versace 1969, has no relation to Versace. The similarity of names resulted in a lawsuit during the 2010s that the better-known Versace won in 2018. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of Versace clothing and accessories from some of the world’s top boutiques.

The aesthetic of Versace is subversive, maximalist and unabashedly seductive. Versace mined celebrity, music and Pop art for inspiration. In fact, the New York Times noted in 1997 that the fashion industry “is now driven by contemporary culture because Mr. Versace made it that way.” Insiders consider his 1991/1992 Autumn/Winter runway show — which featured supermodels Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista lip-synching George Michael’s “Freedom! '90” — as the moment when the two worlds of fashion and pop culture became one, changing both forever. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Versace pieces from some of the world's top boutiques.

The Versace Medusa is the name of the logo used by the Italian luxury house Versace. A powerful figure from Greek mythology, Medusa had poisonous snakes in place of hair on her head, and if you looked into her eyes, you could be turned to stone. The internationally renowned brand’s founder, Gianni Versace, chose the logo because Medusa was irresistible to those who encountered her. The gilt gorgon head famously worked its way into Versace’s personal realm, as well, appearing as a door knocker at his Milan home and throughout his palatial Miami villa.
