When one thinks of Versace, one might think of the supermodel-filled runways during founder Gianni Versace’s heyday in the ‘90s. One might think of its current face and creative director of the brand, Gianni’s sister Donatella Versace.

Or, sadly, one might picture the caution tape outside Gianni’s Miami mansion when he was murdered in 1997 at 50 years old by a “spree killer” that rattled the world. 25 years after that tragic day, his legacy still lives on, thanks to the thread that has weaved the house of Versace together since the beginning — family.
