Versace Spring/Summer 1993 Ad Campaign by Richard Avedon (Vogue Italia, February 1993)

This iconic advertising campaign encapsulates the exuberance and glamour synonymous with Gianni Versace’s Spring/Summer 1993 collection. Photographed by Richard Avedon, the images are a symphony of movement, color, and audacious styling, capturing the bold confidence of 1990s supermodel culture.

Avedon’s vision presents the supermodels—Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington, Kate Moss, and others—as embodiments of sensuality and power, their dynamic poses evoking both classical sculpture and modern vitality. Saturated hues, striking patterns, and metallic accents define the wardrobe, a visual homage to Versace’s ability to fuse baroque opulence with a pop sensibility.

The campaign exudes theatricality, with the models styled in body-hugging silhouettes, chainmail dresses, and statement accessories that defined the era’s opulent aesthetic. Avedon’s masterful use of motion and lighting heightens the drama, ensuring each image pulsates with energy.
