After the well-received SS 1991 Vogue and Pop Art-Collection, Versace continued to build on this in the following seasons. Gianni Versace – who was inspired by pop culture, as well as by high art – gives the wearer a lesson in art history with these collections where he makes references to art movements like Futurism and Cubism represented in the works of Pablo Picasso, Robert Delaunay and Kazimir Malevich a.o.
Ukrainian-born Soviet artist Kazimir Malevich – who is more commonly known for his abstract works – had a brief flirtation with Futurism. Versace took elements from that period and that resulted in this outstanding jacket. Even its round shape and conical sleeves refers to Futurism and Cubism in a way. The light-weight cotton fabric ensures smooth movement, feels wonderfully soft and the bright colors will boost your mood and the people around you.
The indicated size is IT48 (men), but this is a unisex model. Suitable for many sizes. Small for an oversized fit up to a size Large.

This is a very special, museum worthy piece and a great investment but yet very wearable. It looks even more contemporary now than it did back in the ’90s – when the Japanese and Belgian influence in fashion was at its peak, (un)coloring the streets with black, conceptual clothing. Unlike others Gianni Versace stuck to his guns and stood out with his ultra-glamorous, eclectic creations laced with sexuality, adding some color and irony to the somewhat serious nineties. Who would have thought that his aesthetics would become one of the most desirable to collect today?
