LFW: VERSUS VERSACE SS16

Almost all black everything, Versus Versace was as fierce as Donatella herself for SS16.

Welcome to the jvngle

There was hardly a menagerie of prints on hand but the inclusion of bright white leopard was an antidote to the harsh leather and sharp shapes of the collection. Elsewhere prints came in the form of a fruity number dotted with pineapples and a regretfully forgettable floral addition.

Shiny must have been the word of the day in the Versus studio at some point this season. All leather was glossed or at least silky smooth for looks that made up half of the collection. Bin-bag texture jumpsuits, forest green bombers and slips of skirts all got the leathered treatment for SS16, let’s just hope summer isn’t too hot.

When in Rome

Italiano influence was strong with gladiator vibes running throughout. Gowns fanned out with trains fit for princesses and cut-outs with strapped sides. Medallions were plastered across dresses in finer details and arched across trouser hips for the boys.
