- Story Text: Italian designer Gianni Versace launched New York's Spring 96 Fashion Week on Saturday (October 28) with a glittering show of his "Versus" line, combining bold 1970s colours with futuristic fabrics.
Taking influence from funky street styles his collection showed fluorescent striped tops worn along with acid-tartan skirts and trousers. The almost clashing combinations also included stripes, animal skin prints and florals.
The vibrant colours chosen by Versace for this line included solar shades of orange and yellow, as well as bold purples. On the striped and patterned garments, combinations of black and white were also used. The types of fabric chosen for the line combined to produce a glitering, mirrored effect.
The seventies theme was continued in the cut of the clothes.
Hipster skirts with low waistlines and flared at the hem were common across the line. Full length skirts and minis were also seen.
The zebra stripe pattern used across the line also appeared in the accessories. Boots showed a range of colourful patterned prints.
