Can you believe Versace couture used to look like this circa 02′ – 04′? Now fast forward to 2009. Another divine collection. Loads of ruffles and sheer this time, and the fabrics are a lot lighter than previous season’s. Once she drop the blings and sequins the entire collection looks classier than usual, definitely an »
