The eye-catching emblem captures the drama the house would come to be known for. Founded by Gianni Versace in 1982, the eponymous luxury brand has become one of the world’s most recognized fashion houses. Even if you don’t know a thing about fashion, you’ve probably heard about Versace in music lyrics or on TV. The label is known for its bold and sexy design aesthetic, often including intense colors (black and gold come to mind) and an unapologetic use of print and mixed metals. However, Versace is also memorable for its connection to a tragedy that shook the world. In 1997, Gianni Versace was murdered in front of his Miami Beach mansion by spree killer Andrew Cunanan. The highly-publicized death has become the subject of true-crime documentaries, movies, and television shows over the years. The recent limited series, ‘The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story,’ received the most nominations at the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards. Unfortunately, Gianni’s death was not the first major loss in the Versace family. Gianni’s older sister Tina died at 12 due to a poorly treated tetanus infection. This led the family to have Gianni’s younger sister, current Chief Creative Officer, Donatella Versace. ‘Sudden death is frequent in my family,’ Donatella explained to The New Yorker. So it seems that the Versace family is no stranger to heartbreaking endings.
