Her message was that, regardless of the difficulties of the times, people want something to enjoy and desire. The clothes looked great, many with a luxed- up, rock ’n’ roll Western theme, including tuxedos styled to resemble Western shirts and bold coats with fringe. Here, her fringed pastel lynx coat, little top and ultralow-slung leather pants for Versace. For more on the season, see pages 4 to 7. Courting Gen-Y: Forget the Hype, Find Street Cred By Valerie Seckler NEW YORK — What do Kenneth Cole and Coca-Cola have in common?

Academy Award Awinner Goldie Hawn and her daughter Kate Hudson made a surprise appearance at Atelier Versace in an atypi- cal family night out in Paris. But the real frenzy didn’t start until the 35-year-old “Almost Famous” star turned her back to the paparazzi. What was revealed - a very daringly-placed Versace cut- out - was a fashion coup Donatella could be proud of. Here are the highlights and tidbits of the first day of haute cou- ture collections, including show reports for Atelier Versace, Dior and Schiaparelli. Kate Hudson shows derriere Underwear is so passÈ (ask Rihanna). Hudson’s was just the latest name added to the list of stars to forgo under- wear in the name of fashion.

Knickers were nowhere to be seen. Her mother dressed more prudently in a black long sleeve cocktail dress with crystal zipper details from this year’s Versace Resort.

  • Versace's Native American
    VERSACE’S NATIVE AMERICAN A COLONIZED FEMALE BODY IN THE NAME OF AESTHETIC AND DYNASTIC GLORY 1 In this contemporary moment fashion designers have the means to collaborate with Native American fashion designers. However, there is still a flourishing fashion market that refuses to recognize Native American tribes as owners of intellectual property.1 While some brands may initially start on the right track via collaboration with Native artists, it may not always end in success.2 Most recently, Versace has included Native American designs in their ready-to-wear fashion for the 2018 Spring-Summer season. This component of the collection belongs to a tribute honoring Gianni Versace and his original FW ’92 Native American print (Figures 1 and 2).3 I will be discussing the implications of the revived Native American print and how it affects Native North American men and women. In this essay, I will look at Versace’s legacy and his original print; the new Native American Tribute Collection by Donatella Versace; and Donna Karan’s collaboration with Pueblo artist, Virgil Ortiz. I argue that respectful recognition of Native North American property is thrown aside for aesthetic and dynastic glory, which in turn, allows non-Native designers to colonize the ‘exotic’ Native woman’s body by denying Native North American men and women the opportunity to represent themselves to the global fashion community. Virgil Ortiz’s collaboration with Donna Karan illustrates how respectful collaboration can shape the dominant society’s perception of Native North American women. If we use Native North American fashion as a framework to understand how Native designers are working to dismantle mainstream stereotypes, it is imperative that global designers 1 “Navajo Nation Sues Urban Outfitters,” Business Law Daily, March 18, 2012.
