After the role of godmother at the Met Gala and the appearance in the movie Barbie, Dua Lipa has achieved a new professional success. In the end she, excited and radiant, jumped onto the catwalk in a tight black dress with slits, characterized by a crossed neckline and a cut-out body, where her breasts were only covered by two small pockets. Next to her was Donatella Versace, in a one-shouldered black dress. The image of the two women closing the catwalk shaking hands is already a fashion anthology: it is the new Versace, created by women for women.

Dua Lipa x Versace The Holidays
On a suggestive catwalk by the pool, Versace presented the La Vacanza collection inspired, as its name suggests, by the atmosphere of the Dolce Vita. Fluffy hair, sparkly mesh micro-dresses, gladiator sandals, and an array of towel-like skirts tied around the waist that look like towels. The Versace icons are back too: from the colored suit with a corset instead of a shirt to the fitted mini-dresses, almost designed on the body, to the bikinis and suits with all-over logos. For men, on the other hand, the focus is on large, smooth lines and colorful open shirts.

By day it is an explosion of colors with scarlet print dresses, at night the Versace woman advances confidently with total black dresses and pointed toe shoes, accompanied by a riot of gold jewelery with enamel applications. The common thread of the visual storytelling is butterflies (beloved by Dua Lipa) that perch on miniskirts, jewels, one-shoulder dresses and add a touch of color to polka-dot dresses.
