SPRING - SUMMER 2022
COLLECTION
The Spring-Summer 2022 collection is built from
Versace's iconic silk foulard...
The foulard is a fundamental component
of Versace's heritage and character. It's
acted as a canvas for our iconic prints
and is worn in multiple ways from
knotted tops to headscarves to bag
accessories, it's a way of adding Versace
attitude to any look. The foulard has
been with us since the very beginning
of the brand, but this season turns
everything on its head, it is no longer
fluid or dreamy, the scarf is provocative,
sexy, wound tight. - Donatella Versace.
The transformational nature of the scarf
means it can become anything, from
billowing shirts to sexy, shrunken-fit
dresses. Combined with iconographical
prints, the designs feel thrown together,
unfinished and unpolished. It's as if
the pieces have been ripped apart and
rapidly stitched back together again.
Slashes in the garments are haphazardly
fastened together by the brand's iconic
Safety Pins. Modernized in a selection
of vibrant colors, the Safety Pins become
both functional fastening and bold
embellishment. Scarves tightly wrap the
body and are punctuated by seemingly
ran-domly placed hardware. A textural
diversion comes in the form of sleek latex
dresses, tops and skirts in a shocking
palette.
Ornate prints are a defining feature
of the Versace foulard. This season
there's a celebration of brand code La
Greca, as well as fresh designs. Royal
Rebellion presents crowns and crests in
bold colorways, and Banquet Aftermath
features dishes and cutlery from the
Versace Home collection - the cutlery is
also translated to knife and fork jewelry.
Acid Bouquet is Versace's answer to
spring florals and is characteristically
unromantic in clashing acid tones.
