Couture Fashion Week: Atelier Versace

With Cameron Diaz and Diane Kruger both in the front row for the first show of Couture Fashion Week, Donatella Versace is showing more than even that this is her year.

Not content with two sell out H&M collections, the launch of her Childrens wear collection, she has now revived her Atelier Versace collection by showing it on the run way for the first time since 2004.

The collection was a bright one, with hues of green, orange and yellow, all shown on mirrored stairs almost as an emphasis of the futuristic/architectural silhouette to the dresses.  Whilst Donatella's models are otherwise known for their tanned appearance, these models were all but pal wonders, with slicked back hair and smokey eyed make up to make them appear that bit more sultry.

Versace's Couture collections have, for the past 8 years, shown only on the red carpet (most recently on Angelina Jolie at last weeks Golden Globes), but this was most certainly a comeback to remember.
