Versace, from the runway to the bottle
Gianni Versace, born in Reggio Calabria, showed his first collection under his own name in Milan in March 1978. The house's aesthetic is instantly recognizable, with Greek mythology, gold and bold colors. Eros is named after the Greek god of love, and the Medusa also appears on the bottles, for example on the clean-lined glass of Versense. The fragrances are developed and produced under license by the Italian company Euroitalia, and since 2025 the house has been part of the Prada group.
