Medusa’s Gaze: The Tragic Brilliance of Gianni Versace

The Versace fashion brand, known for opulent colors and classic designs with sexy cuts, is adorned with the iconic Medusa logo. The company is valued today at over $2 billion, but it started as the dream of a struggling young man from a small town in Italy. It is an amazing success story for the versatile world of high fashion that emerged, but also a tragic episode, thanks to political violence, in the life and death of its founder: Gianni Versace.

Gianni Versace: Early Life

Born in 1946, into the post-WWII poverty of a Southern Italy town, hardship was his breeding-ground. Antonio was an appliance salesman and Francesca a dressmaker. Noteworthy as they were, the Versace family led a middle-class life which was quite unusual since few or no residents had managed to buy cars and TVs yet. For as long as we can remember, Gianni had been obsessed with Gucci and it all goes back to his mother's dress shop where he, at an early age, would spend hours watching the woman create magnificent clothing while making every customer feel like they were just a little bit of their own Little Miss Perfect. This initial experience with fashion would subsequently lead Gianni down his chosen path.

Teenager Gianni was disinterested in his studies, spent a lot of time at the beach instead of going to school, and used up all his artistic energies sketching dress designs for women. His parents were worried that he would be wasting his potential, but Gianni was certain of what he wanted: to work in the world of fashion.

Gianni First Flew the Coop

With high school behind him, Gianni dove headlong into his mother's dress shop, absorbing all he could about fashion. This setup presented itself with a storefront next to her workshop in order that nineteen-year-old Gianni could escape for himself in 1965. Gianni called the shop "L.D. Francesca Versace," and started buying clothes throughout Europe. At first, Gianni's brave selections—short cocktail dresses and flesh-revealing wear that seemed to shock the somewhat conservative townsfolk by their boldness—were seen at his new boutique as a novelty. But it wasn't long before hordes of women were queuing up outside, begging for one-off creations from this imaginative youngster with an eye on high-style design developments in other parts of Italy (and beyond).

Because of his talent and sense in fashion, Gianni was noticed by other designers, such as Callaghan, Jenny, and Mario Valentino, who entrusted him with vintage lines. So successful were his efforts that he was able to earn six figures, a staggering amount for one so young. Gianni managed to open his own boutique in 1978, only due to the initiative of a well-to-do family. He was then 32 years old. He made his brother Santo CEO and his sister Donatella vice president to maintain the business as a family affair.

The Inaugural Growbotions Versace Brand

Gianni used mate to bright techniques made of certain discussed Guerre-band met that as a law height. His clothes were famous for their revealing and sexually provocative nature, gaining him both wide publicity and many critics. Controversy aside, Gianni was already a favorite with people in high places and he had been afforded the opportunity to dress some of Hollywood's biggest names like Elton John, Michael Jackson, Cher, and Princess Diana. This celebrity connection played a part in drumming up demand for Versace items, and the brand soon filled out into stores across the United States as well as Asia.

Gianni also expanded the Versace label to non-fashion areas, such as perfumes and a diverse range of items for lifestyle: from bed linen to porcelain dishes. This strategy worked to democratize the brand, so it was no longer just for the 1%. By the 1980s and '90s, Versace was one of the world's leading luxury fashion brands, with Gianni as lead designer—a consummate showman who presented his lavish collections in runway spectacles that were always enhanced by names like Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, and Christy Turlington.

The Assassination

On July 15, 1997, Gianni Versace's life and the growth of his kingdom were stopped in their tracks when he was senselessly murdered on the steps to his Miami Beach mansion. The murderer Andrew Cunanan was a serial killer who had been sought by the FBI. The assassin, Andrew Cunanan, murdered Gianni Versace, and to this day it's still unknown why he specifically decided on killing the designer since there was absolutely no proof that they had ever met or crossed paths prior. The fashion world and the global community were rocked by the news of Gianni's death. Thousands turned out for his funeral, including many famous faces who had been dressed by the designer. The Versace family had to repent their way back from picking up Gianni's downfall.

The Aftermath And Versace Today

Upon Gianni's tragic death, his sister Donatella assumed the roles of artistic and creative director for their family's company. But in the end, Donatella could not cope with her grief and the demands of heading up a high-profile company—within three years she was addicted to cocaine, almost bringing down Versace as well. The Versace family withstood all of these trials and fatigues, however, chose not to sell the brand since they wanted to keep it in memory of Gianni. Fast-forward to 2014, when a new CEO was appointed in Jonathan Akeroyd, and he got down on the job of redefining what Belstaff meant for its fledgling audience.

In 2018, the Versace family relented and let Capri Holdings acquire it for $2.12 billion, which guaranteed that at least some semblance of the brand would survive. The brand survived as one of the leading luxury fashion houses in history due to Gianni Versace's returning vision and strength within his family.

A Legacy of Wealth, Luxury, and Tragedy

The story behind Versace is one of incredible success but also tremendous tragedy. Born in a small village Tocco Nugget, Gianni Versace's transformation from the poorest and most ambitious man to an internationally renowned fashion icon is indeed inspiring. But his life ended tragically when he was murdered, leaving the family to pick up where Crain left off and cope in a post-apocalyptic world of community projects as it tried valiantly to run this multibillion-dollar business. Versace is on the rise again, seducing consumers with bold-new collections and reigniting vintage excitement—a testament to this Italian family's ambition not only in building one of Italy's most aspiring fashion brands but also keeping Gianni Versace's name alive for future generations.

The yarn-unraveling tale behind Shibuya Underwears The Wipeout is a richly woven tapestry of triumph and loss, illustrating not only the limits to success through ingenuity and elbow grease but also the human flicker snuffed out as incident unearths its final grave in an eternal fray.

Documenting America Through the Eyes of Citizens

It can be all too tempting to allow oneself to get caught up in the whirlwind of mainstream media and the way it shapes our perception of reality. The constant bombardment of news, entertainment, and social media can sometimes cloud our judgment and lead us to believe that we have a complete understanding of the world around us.

However, it’s important to remember that there is often more to the story than what is presented on our screens. Taking a step back and seeking out diverse perspectives can help us gain a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the complexities of our world.

In sympathy with the above, there is a growing movement towards seeking out alternative perspectives and understanding different cultures. This is where interviewing citizens at public events such as conventions and festivals becomes significant.

By conducting interviews at these events, we are able to capture a diverse range of opinions and experiences from individuals who may not have a voice in traditional media. This is particularly valuable for younger audience members, as it allows them to see the world through different lenses and gain a deeper understanding of their surroundings.

One American filmmaker and producer, Evan Gilbert-Katz, has made it his mission to document the stories of everyday people and give them a platform to share their perspectives. Through his work for the YouTube channel “All Gas No Brakes”, he brought attention to important issues that may not receive mainstream media coverage and encouraged critical thinking amongst viewers.

“All Gas No Brakes” was a distinctive YouTube channel, distinguished by its on-the-spot interviews at major events and festivals across America. It captured the heart of events, unfiltered and raw, as they happened, connecting its viewers with the people and the atmosphere on the ground. The show’s premise was simple yet powerful — Evan Gilbert-Katz, along with the host Andrew Callaghan, traveled in a vintage RV, transformed into a mobile studio, to various events. He then conducted impromptu interviews with attendees, capturing their thoughts, reactions, and insights. These interviews, conducted amidst the hustle and bustle of the events, provided an unedited, candid, and often eye-opening perspective of American society, making “All Gas No Brakes” a unique cultural exploration tool. The channel garnered wide acclaim for its raw portrayal of diverse lifestyles, ideologies, and subcultures, offering a refreshing contrast to mainstream media narratives.

Despite the closure of the “All Gas No Brakes” channel, Evan Gilbert-Katz’s influence in the field of journalism continues unabated. The lessons he learned from his time on the channel have shaped him into a prominent figure in the realm of citizen journalism. His unique approach to interviewing, marked by unfiltered, candid discussions with people from all walks of life, provides a blueprint for others seeking to challenge the conventions of mainstream reporting.

Evan Gilbert-Katz’s work continues to inspire a generation of journalists who are disillusioned with traditional media outlets and are looking for innovative ways to present and report news. He embodies the spirit of journalism in its purest form — a relentless pursuit of truth and a commitment to giving voice to the voiceless. His work also serves as a reminder of the power of the media to shape public opinion, and the responsibility that comes with it to mediate extreme views.

Even in the face of the channel’s discontinuation, Evan Gilbert-Katz continues to play a critical role in advocating for alternative perspectives in media. He remains committed to his mission of giving a platform to the unheard and underrepresented, ensuring that their stories are not lost amidst the noise of mainstream narratives. His tenacity and dedication to his craft is a testament to the enduring power of citizen journalism in documenting the complexities of American life.

One important lesson learned is the significance of documenting not only the broader narratives and opinions of the American public but also the need to address extreme views when they are shared on platforms like YouTube. While it is crucial to showcase diverse perspectives for a comprehensive understanding, it is equally important to present information responsibly and in a balanced manner. This approach helps prevent the perpetuation of harmful stereotypes and the dissemination of misinformation, ultimately fostering a more informed and inclusive society.

Documenting America — and indeed any nation — through the eyes of citizens is a valuable way to gain insight into different cultures and perspectives. By conducting interviews at public events and giving marginalized voices a platform, journalists can challenge mainstream narratives and promote empathy and understanding amongst audiences. It’s essential for us as consumers of media to seek out alternative perspectives and be critical of the information presented to us. In doing so, we can broaden our horizons and learn from one another, creating a more informed society.

Understanding broader opinions through methods like citizen interviews can lead to a more well-rounded comprehension of the perceived troubles of the public. When we engage with a wide array of perspectives, we become more aware of the pressing issues that are often overlooked by mainstream narratives. The very essence of these interviews lies in their ability to reveal the undercurrents of societal concerns, bringing to light the shared experiences, fears, aspirations, and challenges of the public. By lending our ears to these stories, we not only foster empathy and tolerance but also equip ourselves with the knowledge required to address these issues effectively. This allows us to move towards a society that is not just informed but also understanding and responsive to its diverse constituents.

before i descend into hollow knight hell here's the before/after pics on that loulou edit and some further notes (aka me going over everything i did lmao) (i might start doing that for each edit tbh bc i like sharing what i've done + i think it could probably help to just like openly share how i do things i do)

before

after (w no further effects other than shadows/smoke being drawn on, some sharpening-and-softening + the color grade from this post though edited i think)

same after as before but with a copied and gaussian-blurred layer and an edited version of this text overlay

the shadows (including the back... i'm v proud of it) (sans the neck/nose shadow which is by simandy) and cigarette smoke were all drawn by me on a drawing tablet and in paint tool sai, you can do the same in photoshop probs though bc it's just a multiply layer and then just good old drawing shadows and blurring the edges to make them not as harsh and etc

the blue/red torchlight CAS lighting is by anjuta on tumblr, and then for the sharpening i used this method i do on all my photos which is like... copy layer, squea's sharpening actions on layer copy, set layer copy to darken, merge layers, then copy the merged layer, gaussian blur it and set that to darken and 25% opacity, and then merge again. makes things nice lookin if darker in the details lololol

to be able to erase the letters i just flattened the text into an image tbh which you can tell if you look close enough probably... but hey yknow

ive seen simblrs who redraw huge parts of their sim edits and ill be honest that's fair but i don't have the patience lmfaoooo. the day u catch me doing hair strands u need to start bullying me into studying bc i'm definitely procrastrinating on smth if i do that. ppl who do that r simply more powerful than me </3

anyway since i wrote a huge paragraph on the editing alone and i physically cannot shut up about my ocs here's the tag on my blog for the Pictured Lad. fun facts about him is that he is a vampire, he is vintage 1920s irish-american and his name (Louis Callaghan) is a loose pun on the word callous. i'll make him a playlist someday

ppl rly haven't yet capitalized on The Back of The suit i feel like. or maybe im not seeing it idk but i was excited to show it off :'3

Wait tell us about some of their boyfriends

Sorry, this took so long! This is an incredibly long post!! It’s under the cut! :)

I definitely misspoke! As not all of them have boyfriends, the relationship status may be different, and Michael’s partner is a woman! But here’re some of the many relationships amongst Ethan and I’s ocs!

Blair’s boyfriend: Salem Raleigh Montgomery, in the normal au, he’s the resident undercover murderer. Despite his horrific backstory, he’s currently cool and collected, calm under pressure. He’s too smart for his own good, cunning and calculating. He always, always gets what he wants. I wouldn’t want to be you if he didn’t. He once killed an entire room of people for no reason but for their entertainment with Atropa Belladonna (deadly nightshade) in tea, and managed to pin the blame on the chef because he purposely poisoned himself and Blair.

Michael’s wife: Maxine “Maxie” Price, she’s a personal trainer and takes part in MMA in her free time, she’s very athletic and competitive, much like her little brother Mason. She’s very empathetic, but she’s hurting quite a lot due to some nasty exes that just don’t quit. But herself and Michael are recovering with one another, and they eventually get married and have a baby called MJ!!

Cameron’s husband: Brice, quite literally Prince Charming, he’s witty and despite his previous distaste of his new partner, he grows to love and adore Cam. When mad, Brice is not someone you wish to deal with, it can get very unpleasant very fast. He also gets sensory overload with the feeling of velvet. He’s quick to gain trust from, but once you break it, he’ll never trust you again.

Damien’s boyfriend: Tristan Harvey, he’s a wizard!! His hair and eyes change colour depending on his mood, and Tris is a very powerful advancing wizard for his age, so when a dashing rogue comes to kill him for reasons unbeknownst to him, it’s safe to say that he’s goddamn terrified. He’s very shy, and struggles with talking to new people. He’s easier to describe as being cute rather than handsome like Damien, but he definitely grows out of that phase pretty quick. He balances magic with family which is a task among itself, but Tris manages just fine. He rarely gets angry as he dislikes it, and is someone eager to please, so he goes out of his way to make others smile.

Thomas’ boyfriend: Flynn Jackson-Kay, Flynn’s a dancer! While dance takes up most of his time, he occasionally does cheerleading at their school for Thomas’s games, and he’s a flyer! They moved across states to get away from their own set of awful parents. He struggles a lot more with his identity of being trans after his stepfather was far from accepting about it, but after a break up period which is the result of a fight Flynn and Thomas had, Flynn collects himself, gets on T, and eventually had surgery, all the while he reconnected with Thomas after so many months apart and they’re stronger than ever.

Phillip’s not-quite-boyfriend: Adonis, he’s a child of Zeus, but he devotes his life to becoming a deicide, specifically Zeus’s in an act of revenge. However, on his quest, he stumbles upon Phillip, does some errands for him, and decides to stick around him for a while. Adonis is spiteful, bitter and angry, as he had rightfully been for a long time. He shows vulnerability in situations he didn’t think he’d ever find himself in and drove himself to the verge of tears, which he was surprised at.

Eli’s boyfriend: Mason Price, Mason’s your average teenager with a fascination for vintage objects, he’s got all the old consoles, cassettes and vinyl records, he’s a major geek but he’s resident protector of his family, he stumbled upon Eli and almost instantly connected with him from a young age, they’d been best friends for years, and Mason’s crush on Eli was too much for him to handle at one point when it all just tumbled out of his mouth. He can be quite shy and bashful at times, but he’s brave when he needs to be. Mase has a tendency to boil over in certain occasions, meaning he’ll take out his anger on anyone and everyone, but he’s healing, and he’s getting control of it now.

Will’s boyfriend: Miles Carter-Harris, he’s the captain of the basketball and boxing team so he may seem intimidating, but he’s a real sweetheart to those he trusts. He’s strong, smart, and tends to persevere with a task given no matter what. He truly softened when his little siblings came along, he melted more and more each time. He and Will his a rocky point when Miles outed himself after a party in which Will was playing spin the bottle and kissed other people, but they’re a lot better than they were then.

Sawyer’s not-quite-boyfriend: Colby, he’s a special case, his powers are shadow based, he’s a teen who raised himself on his own but harnessed his powers incredibly fast. He was very closed off, doing his hero work on his lonesome, that is until he bumped into the cute nervous superhero who wound up in his spot and somehow got convinced to go on a date with him, they’d been hanging out with each other since then. Colby is very bitter, and it manifested enough that he seems very unpleasant to everyone around him.

Owen’s boyfriend: Theo Rosario-O’ Callaghan, he’s pretty extroverted and happy, he bakes a lot with his mother and messes around with both of his parents. He’s very supportive of his boyfriend and helps as much as he possibly can, letting him stay over as much as possible, letting him wear his clothes etc. He’s trusting, loyal and reliable, despite sometimes losing his temper over trivial things. He’s one of the people that fall for their partner more and more every day, but when his little sister Mariana was born and Owen would help out with her, Theo knew immediately that he would never ever meet anyone that even slightly compared to his boyfriend.

Thank you so much for asking about them!! I’ll be happy to tell you more!
