Recently, Donatella Versace brought Versace’s fall 2023 collection to LA to celebrate the connection between fashion and film—a link made clear when LadyGaga wore the show’s closing look, which Gigi wore, to the 2023 Oscars. Watch us go backstage here:
“The inspiration is always Donatella.” So said hairstylist Guido Palau backstage at the Versace show in Los Angeles last week. The designer brought her collection to town to celebrate the connection between fashion and film—a link made clear when Lady Gaga wore the show’s closing look to the Oscars three days later.
But, as this First Looks video makes clear, the trip was about more than the red carpet. Long an LGBTQ+ advocate—some would even call her a gay icon—the designer recently launched a partnership between the Versace Foundation and the CFDA to benefit LGBTQ+ design students. On day one oftwo days with the designer, we followed along as she visited LA’s LGBT Center for a fireside chat-slash-masterclass with students, some of whom were wearing her work.
Day two was all about the show: runway walk-throughs, hair and makeup, first looks. Throughout the day, Versace talked about dressing a commanding woman—how that was her goal with her fall 2023 show. “We all want the same thing: a woman to look sensual, strong, and powerful,” she said. If there’s one thing to take away from this video, it’s that Donatella herself very much lives up to that description.
