Donatella Versace

“Fashion is a weapon that you can use when you need it.”

“I don't like balance. Balance is not a word you can use in Versace fashion.”

“Elegance is a word that is overused.”

“Creativity comes from a conflict of ideas.”

“You can be too boring, but you can never be too seductive.”

“My style is not that big. I wear heels, tight pants, and I wear diamonds.”

“I think the responsibility of a designer is to try to break rules and barriers.”

“Blonde is a state of mind.”

“Fashion is about dreaming and making other people dream.”

“To be a designer is to be a psychologist.”

“I'm a dreamer. I have to dream and reach for the stars, and if I miss a star then I grab a handful of clouds.”

“The new generation is what inspires me.”

“I am not a minimalist.”

“I wanted to create a vocabulary of the brand, something you can say is 'very Versace'.”

“It's very important to have a point of view. Otherwise, you're just another designer.”

“I believe in individuality, that everybody is special, and it's up to them to find that quality and let it live.”
