Versace Skirt Section:
1996 Versace designed a dress for Elizabeth Hurley to wear to the premier of the film "4 Weddings and a Funeral". The dress was held together by 23 gold safety pins. It helped to make Liz Hurley famous. Also, in the early 90's, Princess Diana felt that since she was separated from Prince Charles, she was under no obligation to wear only clothes from British designers. Versace was one of her favourites at this time, and she loved to wear his short shift dresses. She also wore many of his evening gowns.
Versace designed for the Italian fashion labels De Parisi, Genny (for whom he would later be working again), Callaghan, Alma, and then for Complice in 1974. The work for Complice, which he fully conceived himself marked the first occasion where his own name was included in the brand name.
In 1978, Versace opened his first boutique in Milan's Via della Spiga, still selling other labels to complement his own collections. Soon, with the growing popularity of the Versace style, boutiques started to spread across the globe.
