Versace offers a behind-the-scenes look at Versus collaboration with M.I.A.
The video, like the capsule collection, has an urban street vibe, depicting M.I.A. in East London’s markets, dressed in the pieces. The range is bold and bling-filled with vibrant attention-getting prints.
Mixing streetwear and contemporary references, each of the 19 items in the collection is directly inspired by counterfeit Versace designs, with an emphasis on the Italian label’s vivid, graphical prints.
The collection features medallions featuring the Medusa head, one of Versace’s best-known symbols, as well as t-shirts, jersey dresses and military-styled outerwear.
In addition to designing the capsule, M.I.A. also models the range in a campaign photographed by Jaime Martinez.
