I love Versace, so my opinion is very subjective but I like the new Spring-Summer 2010 Ad Campaign very much.
The pictures look wonderful and they feature gorgeous Georgia Jagger, daughter of model Jerry Hall and rocker Mick Jagger.
The young beauty wears fantastic Versace clothing: a feminine pink super-short dress, yellow printed frock and nice clonging suit.
The accessories shown in the ad are chic. I just love the shoes and the bags look sumptuous too.

Avatar premiere was an interesting event to attend, not only because the film was worth seeing but also because there were women worth admiring.
Leona Lewis, whose song I See You was used in the movie, looked absolutely perfect and outshined everyone else present on the blue (not red!!!) carpet. The singer wore a floor-sweeping strapless silver dress embellished with millions of sparkling stones. A pair of matching peep-toe heels completed the look.
Zoe Saldana, one of the main characters in Avatar, turned heads too. She appeared at the premiere donning a white Versace mini-dress with silver and gold panels and gold shoes.
Michelle Rodriues looked beautiful in a purple strapless gown with frills on the hemline.
However, it never happens that everyone looks great. This time it was Audrina Patridge who spoilt the scene.

Glam events are important for us to see what celebrities like about fashion. While desigers offer a great variety of styles and trends, celebs show exactlly what looks good.
Now let’s speak about fashion and style of AMA 2009 attendees. By the way, the event was held at L.A.’s Nokia Theatre yesterday (November 22).
My top pick is of course Rihanna in a strapless Marchesa gown with sexy floral cut-outs. The dress is truly special. It comes in an unusual shape and is black outside while being white on the inside. Fabulous white shoes and simple jewelry completed the attire.
What also deserves your attention here is Rihanna’s makeup. I think it’s crazy, not inspiring as the star might have hoped.
I love Versace and that’s why Shakira and her bright yellow strapless mini is the second on my list. Gorgeous figure plus absolutely marvellous frock and accessories make the 32-year-old beauty one of the best-looking on the red carpet.
Alicia Keys is the third with a hot blue dress embellished with gemstones.
She opted for beautiful blue shoes of the same hue, a tiny clutch and a set of sparkling jewelry to match the apparel.
Vivienne Westwood’s fan, Leona Lewis, comes next.
The dress she wore to the event was very like in style of the designer – royal luxury mixed with eccentric form in addition to simplicity of the idea. Robert Anthony ring fought for the attention of its own.

Giorgio Armani has been nominated for a position of an Italian “senator for life”.
It was Santo Versace, the chairman of the Versace empire, who offered the new role to the fashion designer despite all the talks about the rivalry between the two Italian houses. Santo said it was an absolutely deserved honor.
He explained:
There is nobody that deserves it more or who better represents our country. He has earnestness, creativity and excellence. Armani embodies the beauty of Italy, the country the way we would like to see it represented around the world, and where meritocracy is fully applied.”
Donatella Versace, the creative director of the fashion house, is behind the nomination.
She said it was a brilliant idea, fantastic and that I should do everything I can to promote it,” Santo said.
Giorgio Armani hasn’t commented on his nomination yet. But if he chooses politics there is no way he could keep on working in fashion. So, we might soon lose one of the most talented designers.
At any one time in Italy there can be no more than five “senators for life”, alongside the 315 elected senators.

Milan Fashion Week wouldn’t be complete without the show of this particular designer – Donatella Versace, a person of unusual vision of things and skills to embody that into her creations.
The Spring/Summer collection 2010 was inspired by Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland (which comes out next March).
I loved the idea of that fantasyland,” said Donatella.
Although usually the designer works to make pieces good for grown-ups, this time she decided to create for those who look younger, that has been a trend with designers for some time. It’s just that Donatella shows her own opinion of how young people should look like. These are not only too short skirts and sheer materials which are often visible in other designers’ collections but something else, more significant.
Versace was able to make pieces interesting for modern youngsters – stylish, innovative but still very classy and feminine. Vivid pastels, geometric prints, baroque curlicues, super-short skirts, diverse materials and elaborate combinations of fabrics make the colelction look fresh and sumptuous.

If you have no idea to create something new, you can involve other people.
So, fashion house Versace presented their new line of handbags which has been designed by children.
This new collecton was created for charity.
Donatella said:
When you are successful in your life, you want to give back.”
Donatella Versace, 54-year-old Italian iconic designer, has worked with dozens of children at New York’s Art Unites programme at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
Every child’s idea contains friendship theme on squares of sailcloth and these pics will be transformed into designer Versace tote bags and sold for $250.
All income from sales will go to children’s charities the Starlight Children’s Foundation and the Jet Li One Foundation for poorly youngsters.
Designer currently confessed she was frightened when it came to unveiling her new designs.
She said:
I have to say that presenting a collection to the public has always and still does cause me a certain amount of anxiety. The show is the moment of truth – when you discover whether or not your work is good.
When you have done a good job and the public appreciates it, the satisfaction you feel is utterly unique!”

Great news for those who don’t like seeing zero-size models on the covers of glossy magazines and catwalks! It is now Alexandra Shulman, Vogue editor, who has joined the fight against size zero.
The woman has confessed she is often forced to retouch photos of skinny models before they go the print. According to the editor designers are sending out samples of clothes which are too small for most healthy models. So, she considers it’s high time size zero trend ended.
She wrote a letter to the top designer houses informing them that Vogue readers don’t like seeing photos in the magazine or girls “with jutting bones and no breasts or hips”. Besides, she asked fashion houses to take action.
During the time I have been at Vogue, the sample sizes that models are required to war have become substantially smaller,” Shulman wrote.
We have now reached a point where many of the sample sizes don’t comfortably fit even the established star models.”
I am often having to run headshots on the cover, rather than images where you can see clothes, because my readers are uncomfortable with the size of the models when seen full length.”
The letter was sent to Prada, Versace, Yves Saint Laurent and Chanel.
If Vogue have spoken out against the use of size zero models we can hope other fashion magazines will follow the example and this ridiculous, and dangerous, trend will be put to an end finally.
