All in the Color Family

Gianni Versace has become well known for his use of bright and exotic prints but he also made some amazing pieces with a simple color block technique. The dress below is a one shoulder color block jersey tube dress. The main portion is eggplant with a classic purple bust wrap and a burgundy thick shoulder band. The interior of the dress has a satin bustier and is completely lined in purple satin. This dress embodies the classic, simple and well constructed fashions that Gianni was producing before his untimely death. Gianni, you shall forever be missed.
