This season marks the first time that Donatella Versace has shown both her women’s and men’s collections on the same runway, a decision made by the designer to hero not only inclusivity and equality but to show that women and men are “equally powerful.” Power, she said in a press release following the show, “doesn’t have anything to do with gender, it comes from a different type of confidence, both from their sensual exuberance and their minds.”
