Milan FW: The theatricality of Versace F/W 2012-13

Don't get me wrong; I like theatricality in some aspects. But it doesn't mean I loved everything from Versace's F/W 2012-2013 collection, which definitely wasn't for the fainthearted. In hindsight the pieces were loud and in-your-face.

I did love a couple of pieces, though, like this embellished denim number below. There also was a pants version but I'll be happy with just the jacket.

Although I wouldn't go for some of the suits, there were others that were tame enough for my taste.

Okay, that second jacket wasn't so tame but I love it nonetheless. I wouldn't know where to wear it, though. To a party, I guess?

There was also this quilted leather jacket that wowed me although I would have wanted it to be less bulky. And oh, a blood red suit! But of course I'd have to break it down if I were to wear it (assuming I can have one). Love the accessories, though; reminded me of Prada.

The details were over-the-top as they can be yet to me they somehow fall in the right places. The prints were, of course, very Versace -- loud and proud.

I also dig some of the footwear. In tighter shots you can also see more details, like on the sides of the red pants below.

And oh, the bag!
