At Versace’s spring 2023 show in Milan, the lighting was set to a hazy purple, candle bulbs flanked the runway, and the subversive Y2K Goth was completely reborn as Paris Hilton closed the show in a glittering dress and hot pink fingerless gloves, playing the part of goddess-turned-ringleader.
The show opened with cutout jersey dresses before going headfirst into rocker leathers in the form of mini skirts, fringed jackets, low-slung belts, and silver and gold studded gowns. Versace has perpetually been associated with bold prints and colors in the past, and the nearly all-black collection felt like the label was dipping deeper into a slightly different look that they’ve touched on in recent seasons.
