We are talking about men of character and individual attitude.

Versace Men, for Spring 2017, highlights lightweight, layered, fluid and  functional. It is for the way men live their lives today.

The Versace silk shirt is reborn as a zip-up blouson, with iconic prints over-dyed to create a deep and intense colour palette for summer. Tailoring is about functionality, whether it’s the unstructured jersey suit jacket that keeps its shape, or the tailored pants with elasticated waist and cuff.

The new Versace Active athletic performance wear underpins the collection, with technical cycling shorts and running leggings adding modern reality. Tie prints appear on long silk shirts, or a silk pyjama set, while the print also appears on elegant single-breasted tailoring.

The soundtrack features never-before-heard music by Prince, which was written and recorded as a personal gift to Donatella Versace.

“I love change. I want to push Versace forwards, and capture the spirit of individuality and creativity in the men that I love.” Donatella Versace
