Gianni Versace was a revolutionary man in the world of fashion, having grown up surrounded by it; his mother was a dressmaker, and Versace furthered her path by learning from her. He opened his first boutique in 1978. His designs drew influence from the classics, while also having their own vibrant, modern look. Critics varied wildly in their opinions of him; his clothes were either game-changing or gaudy – sometimes both at the same time. Given these elements and reviews, Versace’s brand grew quickly. Through his hard work and extraordinary passion, he was soon making clothes for celebrities such as Prince, Princess Diana, and Elton John. With his famous friends, in addition to his groundbreaking work, Gianni Versace quickly became a household name. He took advantage of his famous connections by putting them in the front row of his fashion shows. It was a new tactic and one that only further catapulted him into the public sphere.
