Let's start with the finale first. Naomi, Cindy, Helena, Claudia and Carla. Gold glitzy disco diva evening dresses with thigh high slits. George Michael’s Freedom playing on the soundtrack. A show titled “Tribute”. It can only mean Versace. And a Versace that Donatella dedicated to her brother Gianni and the opulence of the 90s era Versace. Those signature prints that put the house at the forefront of “in-your-face fashion” appeared from over-the-knee black and gold print boots to skinny leggings to headscarves. Those iconic candy colors appeared in t-shirts and slinky trousers. In a touching handing-over-the guard, not only did Cindy Crawford appear on the catwalk, but so too did her daughter Kaia Gerber. “Imagine a world without his risk taking, his innovative genius” the voice over asked at the beginning of the show. Not possible.
